The record — long form
Stratford is the '30s — the 'Thomas Lee' that's the built, the 'H-shaped' that's the plan. The '2 brothers' is the signers — the 'Richard Henry/Francis' that's the Declaration, the 'only' that's the pair. The 'Robert' is the born — the '1807' that's the room, the 'wish I could purchase' that's the 1861.
The 'Henry IV' is the scandal — the 'ward sister' that's the affair, the '1822' that's the sold. The '1929' is the saved — the 'Lee Memorial' that's the bought, the '1,800 acres' that's the still. Stratford is the seat — the '4 generations' that's the Lees, the 'enslaved' that's the interpreted.
The file keeps Stratford: the 1730s Thomas, the 2 signer brothers, the Robert born, and the 1929 save.
Stratford Hall is the archive's Virginia file — the Lee's hearth.
