| Notes |
- Mary Josselin married 2. Sir Robert Lee. Sir John Lee, Gilbert Lee, and Fulke Lee were three brothers, sons of Sir Robert Lee. This Sir Robert Lee is not to be confounded with his namesake, Mayor of London in 1602. The clue to his origins are found in the parish church of Chingford-St-Pauls; in the chancel are the monuments of Mary, wife of Sir Robert Lee, and daughter of Henry Josselin of Tyrrells Hall in Essex. THE MANOR OF CHINGFORD-ST-PAULS In 1553, it was granted to Susan, widow of Thomas Tonge, Clarencieux King of Arms. Her nephew Humphrey White sold it, in 1566, to Joan Lee or Leigh, widow [Pat. 9 Eliz. pt. 3. Aug. 14]. Joan was the widow of Robert Lee Esq., ob. 1564, of Eastwick Hall, Sawbridgeworth: 'Robert Lee Esquire, his body is buried here ....... who served lastly with Queen Elizabeth ...And of the ancient Bagley House of Cheshire ...in this tomb with Joan his wife
The registers of St. Dunstan-in-the-East, Stepney, show that:
'Maye 1604 - Ffowke Lee of Ratcliff and Babbage Hawkins of ye same married vi. day.'
Their sons , John [1605] and Philip [1607] were baptised there, as were Gilbert's children, Agnes [1595], Andrew [1598], and Mary [1600]; children of 'Gilbert Ley of Ratcliffe' - and John's daughter, Katherine [11/5/1619], daughter by Sarah Woodward, ob. 27/12/1625. John Lee married 2. Joan Lott, and was buried 16/11/1642 [Stepney Memorials, pt. ii. fol. 61].
Sir John Lee, of White-horse-street, and Joan Lott, of Stepney, widow, married Nov. 7, 1633. William, son of Sir John Lee, buried Feb. 2, 1638."

Some accounts have him buried 1620 St Dionis Backchurch?? eg: Joan, widow of Henry LOTT, of Stepney, merchant, had lie. (Bp. of London) 5 Nov., 1633, to marry Sir John Lee, of the same, aged 45, and a widower. On the other hand, at St. Dionis Backchurch (where his marriage took place, and where his wife was born and her parents buried), " John Lee, Cutler," is buried 10 March, 1619/20; and there is an Inq. post mortem on the said John (7 Car.), showing that he had lands at Woking, co. Surrey, and that John Lee was his son and heir, being aged 8 years, 11 months and 12 days at the death of his father on 2 March, 1619/20 - a likely age for the John Lee whom we know to be living in 1613 as eldest son of John Lee and Sarah, his wife, who were m. in 1607.
Will of John Leigh, Gentleman of Enfield, Middlesex 14 April 1643 PROB 11/191
