in reply to a message by Kevin Lee Kirkham
Lee is a very common surname. It comes from the Old English and means "meadow". This isn't a genealogy site so I can't help you to find out whether your Lee family is related to that famous one.
Kirkham comes from a combination of Old English and Old Norse. 'Kirk' means "church" (click link) and 'ham' means "homestead" (see Gresham and Graham as examples).
