About William Raymond Lee

William Raymond Lee was an officer in the Union Army during the American Civil War. He was born in Salem, Massachusetts. His father was also named William Raymond Lee and his mother was Hannah Lee. He married Helen Maria Amory and had 3 children: Elizabeth Amory, Arthur Tracy (1844–1870) and Robert Ives. He served as colonel of the 20th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment and led it during the Battle of Antietam. A veteran of several major battles, Lee suffered a mental break down the morning after Antietam and abandoned his regiment. According to a subordinate, Lee was found a few weeks later “without a cent in his pocket, without anything to eat, without having changed his clothes for 4 weeks, during all which time he had this terrible diarrhea…. He was just like a little child wandering away from home.” After the war ended he was brevetted brigadier general.
