Notes:

In the Grahamstown Journal George Lee's homestead was burnt and attacked by the natives in 1846: Saturday May 16 1846
Tuesday 2 o'clock pm News has just come in that this morning just before daylight the Kaffirs fired the farm house and kraals of the Messrs. BEZUIDENHOUT (mentioned in a previous article) on the New Year's River. They also burnt at the same time the farmhouse of Mr. G. LEE, in the same neighbourhood. It seems that a number of Kaffirs have had possession of these buildings for some days past, sheltering themselves in the buildings and putting cattle in the kraals. These marauders have now gone off towards Kaffirland, first firing the premises, and BEZUIDENHOUT in bringing in the report is in hopes of receiving assistance so as, if possible, to intercept the enemy on the East side of the Zuuerberg, the point where it is probable be will cross the range, being at the back of Hilton, or between that point and the hamlet of Riebeek.
In the Grahamstown Journal dated 17.08.1850 his obituary reads; "DIED, at Graham's Town on Monday, the 12th instant, Mr. George LEE, aged 44 years. Deceased was the second son of the late Mr. W. LEE, one of the original Salem Party of British Settlers who founded that interesting village in 1820. Some years after his arrival in this Province he was united in marriage to the only daughter of William TROTTER, Esq., whom he has left, with a numerous family of children, to deplore the loss of an inestimable husband. As a member of society deceased was held in deserved reputation for straightforward integrity in his dealings, and for steady public spirit in relation to the affairs of the country in which Providence had cast his lot. As a consistent member of the Wesleyan Church, he was ever ready to advance the interests of that communion, or of any other holding the truth in the love thereof. He bore a painful affliction with the fortitude and resignation of a Christian, and died triumphantly in the full assurance, by the faith in the Atonement, of a glorious resurrection to eternal life. "Let me die the death of the righteous, and may my last end be like his." Grahamstown Journal,
