| Notes |
He was apparently named in honor of Mary Elizabeth Lee Ford's brother who was murdered - George Sylvester Lee, son of John W. Lee and Nancy Shelton Lee. See my webpage for more notes on her brother: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~janicekmc/sylnotes.htm.
On the FTM homepage of B. Horner Hayes this child is shown as Sylvester Lee Ford, with dates, places and marriages.
