Thank you all for helping me find some Lea relatives. I am so new at this that I need all the help I can get! What is so confusing is the repeating of first names!  As it stands now, I am looking for information regarding John Lea's father, Edward Lea who married Mary.  They would be my 3 times great grandparents.

I so appreciate your efforts on my behalf.
