Gov. of Carolina, and later of the Virginia Council. Vol. 2, p. 139 : "[ms. of William Lee, dated London, September, 177-, the last figure not known, but just before the war, as is evident from the document itself. Its author was one of the six sons of Thomas Lee] After some time old Philip Ludwell returned to England. . . . His son Philip remained in Virginia, where his father had acquired a considerable estate, and married a Harrison, by whom he had two daughters--Lucy, the eldest, married a Colonel Grymes, who was of the Council in Virginia, and Hannah, who married the before-mentioned Thomas Lee-- and one son, Philip. This Philip was, as his father had been, of the Council of Virginia. He married a Grymes, by whom he had several children--most of whom died in their infancy; and in the year 1753 his wife died; in 1760 he came over to England for his health, and in the year 1767 he died here, when the male line of Ludwell became extinct. He left heiresses three daughters--Hannah Philippa, Frances, and Lucy; the second is since dead unmarried." [S11]
