  Notes	The son of Jacob and Ann Lee, his compiled military service records say he was born in Harrisburg, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, but the 1880 census and the 1863 draft registration claim Maryland. In 1860, he was a waiter presumably living in Harrisburg. While he is not found in that census, the 1863 draft registration lists him as a resident there. A Civil War veteran, he enlisted at the stated age of twenty-one in Readville, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, June 6, 1863, mustered into federal service there June 22 as a private with Co. H, 55th Massachusetts Infantry, and promoted to corporal September 9, 1863. He had pay withheld on several occasions to cover lost or damaged equipment and was reduced to ranks to date May 26, 1865, for disobedience to orders. He honorably discharged with his company August 29, 1865. His wife's name was Harriet.
