Nicknamed 'Light-Horse Harry,' Lee (1756-1818) was a Revolutionary War hero who captured British posts in New York and in the South; he later served as governor of Virginia and as a US congressman, and was the father of Robert E. Lee. Partly-printed vellum DS, signed “Henry Lee,” one page, 15 x 12, July 23, 1794. As governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia, Lee grants a parcel of land to George and John Campbell. In good to very good condition, with toning, staining, and heavy intersecting folds, none of which affect Lee's bold signature.
