Bouy Family and Robert E. Lee


Last updated 26 October 2021
Additional information supplied by Angela Guenther.

It has been a family legend for generations that the descendants of Louis Herman Frank Bouy and Laura Lee Kershner are related to Robert E. Lee.

It has also been difficult to prove.

Following is what I have been able to find. If you are able to provide any more information, it would be greatly appreciated. Please send updates to Michael.Bouy@gmail.com

However, it is possible that one of Robert E. Lee's extended family of cousins may have married a Kershner. The research continues ...
