Emily Harris Wideman was 16 when she married 17-year-old Zachry James Lee inLone Oak, Georgia. Her father, Henry Wideman--son of Adam Wideman--had died in 1835. Emily's half-sister Lucy Ann Wideman was married to Zachry's olderbrother William Owen Lee, by then a farmer in Lone Oak.Henry Wideman (1788--1835) first married Frances Roberts, with childrenLucinda, Louisa, Eliza, Lucy Ann, and Rachel. Rachel was born about 1828.After the death of Franes Roberts, Henry married Mildred "Millie" Sewell.Together they had three children, Martha, James H. Wideman, and Emily Harris Wideman. After Millie Sewell's death a month after the birth of Emily,Henry married Millie's sister, Mary Elizabeth "Polly" Sewell and had onemore child, Margaret Ann Wideman in 1834. Henry died June, 1835, and is buried on his former plantation near Hogansville, in Troup County, Georgia.Emily's husband Zachry lived in Gwinnett County near his recentlywidowed mother Rebecca Brock Lee. In the next several years they had seven children, the oldest being James Wideman Lee. Zachry went off to war in1863, and returned in 1865. These were tough years for Emily, especiallyduring the war. Her mother-in-law Rebecca died in May, 1863. Her daughter Mary Effie died in February 1864. Her youngest son, Joseph, died in July,1865, and the following month her husband Zachry died in farm accident.Emily was two months pregnant.Soon Emily sent her oldest son James Wideman Lee to live with his uncle, Richard Ivy Sewell and his wife, Martha Adeline Lee--Zachry's oldersister--in Lone Oak. They helped James Wideman Lee finish high school inGrantville, and then on to college at Emory. James Wideman Lee became a noted Methodist minister, author and speaker. He had pulpits in Atlanta andSt. Louis. One of his books, "The Earthly Footprints of Christ and HisApostles," sold more than a million copies.Emily died in Lone Oak while on a visit in 1874. She is buried in the cemetery at the Allen-Lee Memorial United Methodist Church, named partly forher son James Wideman Lee.And like the television pitchman says, just wait--there's more. JamesWideman Lee sent his son Ivy Ledbetter Lee to Princeton. See "The Encyclopiedia Americana" for more about Ivy Lee. In his brief biographythere Ivy Lee was called the "father of modern public relations." Not badfor the grandson of a 16-year-old orphan named Emily. --Jim Lrr
