There were two Lees from Connecticut and a Lee from Baltimore and a Lee in New York. Who was first to have a patent medicine in the United States. A lot of investigative research went into this compilation but I have finally figured out who the original Lees were, what they made, when they made it and where they were selling it from.The work is almost complete but I have some final loose ends to tie up. I hope you enjoy this good read and if you love old medicines this is the ultimate tale.......... THE LEES NEVER GOT ALONG!!
