This used to be celebrated all through the south, but particularly in Virginia as "Lee/Jackson" day. It is good to remember and honor Robert E. Lee, one of the most revered generals that these United States have ever produced. |

Funny, I was just looking at my book on Lee's maxims. Birthday wishes for General Lee. |

Growing up I always thought it was pretty awesome to have my birthday on January 20th right between Lee and Jackson. Thanks, John |

When I was a kid I was always a bit confused by this name, how could a Chinese be a general in the ACW ;-)? Do you know where it comes from? Is it common in the US? |

Lee is quite a common name, especially for fortune tellers. Another famous Lee, of course, is not a fortune teller: link |
