Ludwell Lee (October 13, 1760 – March 23, 1836) was a prominent American lawyer and planter who served in both houses of the Virginia General Assembly representing Prince William and Fairfax Counties and rose to become the Speaker of the Virginia Senate. Beginning in 1799, following the death of his first wife, Lee built Belmont Manor, a planation house in Loudoun County, Virginia (created from Fairfax and Prince William Counties in 1757, his uncle Francis Lightfoot Lee having served as that county's first Burgess alongside James Hamilton), which today is on the National Register of Historic Places.[1][2]
^F.L. Lee married Rebecca Tayloe of Mt. Airy plantation in 1769 and made Menokin Plantation in Richmond County his family's residence for the remainder of his life.
