Hello Mary,
My name is Dena Lee Montero Oldham, and Bailey Lee was my grandfather. I was surprised to come across this posting! I was just doing a search to find information about my family in Louisiana, and came across your post. My grandfather passed away in 1998. He married my grandmother, Margaret Irene Mullis Lee in 1940, and they had four children. My mother, Brenda Ann Lee Montero, and my uncles, John Edward Lee, Michael Bruce Lee and Mark Bailey Lee. I have quite a bit of information about his military history. He was stationed at Drew Field, not too far from the MacDill Air Force Base here in Tampa. Are you a family member? I would be interested to know what your interest with the Lee family is! Please feel free to email me. My grandfather's mother's name was Marie Madeline Mestapae (sp?). Rhymes with Nescafe, so I've been told! She went by the name Madeline. I see that this your inquiry was posted in September, 2003, so you may have had your questions answered already. Hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
Dena Lee Montero Oldham
