Stratford and Chantilly
Two miles east is Stratford, built about 1725 by Thomas Lee (1690–1750), president of the Virginia Council and father of Richard Henry Lee and Francis Lightfoot Lee, both signers of the Declaration of Independence. Here also was born Robert Edward Lee (1807–1870). Three miles east of Stratford stood Chantilly, the home of Richard Henry Lee in his later years.
Marker is at the intersection of Kings Highway (Virginia Route 3) and Stratford Hall Road (U.S. 214), on the right when traveling east on Kings Highway.
