Family tree of William Lee
A former mayor of Abingdon, who at his death aged 92 in 1637 apparently had 197 direct descendants. As Jerome K Jerome commented, he "was, no doubt, a benefactor to his generation, but I hope there are not many of his kind about in this over-crowded nineteenth century."
And just think what his Christmas card list must have been like ...
