Is Robert E. Lee related to a Washington Levi Lee?

Question:

Is Robert E. Lee related to a Washington Levi Lee?

Washington Levi Lee is my 4th great grandfather. I know Robert E. Lee is in my family tree, but the furthest back I can trace is Washington Levi Lee. Born 1825 Died 1862 in Civil War. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS. Already did the whole ancestry.com thing and Washington Levi Lee is as far back as it goes.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I got this from a site that is dedicated to relatives of Robert E Lee of Virgina, and of Civil war fame. I enclosed the web site after there opening paragraph, seems everyone named Lee thinks there related. I did go through the Hundreds of names, and there was no Washington Levi Lee, or Washington L Lee, or Washington Lee, but you can check it out for yourself.

Here is the opening Paragraph:

"I get so many queries from people pursuing family rumors of being related to General Robert E. Lee. Almost every Lee family has this legend. The following information is taken from: "Lee of Virginia 1642-1892" by Edmund Jennings Lee. Generation numbers are listed before the name in blue. Numbers in red refer to section numbers in the book and are listed after the name. Birth and death dates are given, where known. "
