Calhoun, Floride Isabella Lee, 1870-1935
Variant namesBiographical notes:
On April 22, 1889 Gideon Lee filed suit on behalf of his minor daughter, Floride Isabella Lee, in order to contest the will of the late Thomas Green Clemson who had passed away on April 6, 1888. Thomas Green Clemson had made it known through the codicil to his will that on the Fort Hill estate would be established an agricultural college. Floride Isabella Lee, being Clemson's only surviving heir, made an attempt through litigation to block this action. Richard W. Simpson was the defendant in this case. He was acting as executer of Clemson's will at the time. The suit was dismissed on grounds that Clemson had indeed legally inherited the estate from his wife.
