The arms given for this Lee family in this visitation are
Azure, a lion rampant-guardant argent.
The other arms are said to correspond to Wallys (or Waleys), Turke and Kendall.
The family starts with one William Lee who is shown married to Joyce, daughter and heiress of John Wallys of Glynd, with a reference to folio 34.
In reality, it appears that her name was Joan, and that she was one of four co-heiresses.
Another one was another Joan, who married Nicholas Morley.
A lot of information regarding these coheiress and particularly the Morley and Lee families can be found at the national archives in relation to this particular inheritance, which appears to have been contested for more than 100 years.
The chart gives no dates at all. William Lee and his wife are shown in the visitation are shown as parents of one John Lee of Fitchworth, married a daughter of Roger Lewknor.
I have a few questions about this line.
Is there a connection between these Lee and the Lee of Roden and others?
There is a another visitation which gives a Lee line that includes a Lee married to a woman whose surname appears to have been Padynton (or something similar).
From documents at the national archives, on Glynd in particular, it appears that Joan Waleys married Nicholas Morley, but that Robert Lee's wife was called Joan also, and that there were four coheiresses, which are shown as sisters.
They mention that Robert's wife was a sister of Morley's wife, and that another sister, Agnes, married a John Padynton second and John Burgh first.
Another sister, Beatrice, is shown as having married Reginald Cokayne and William Milreth.
It seems impossible that there would have been two sisters both named Joan. So, what the name or Robert Lee's wife?
Could you cite the web link that gives the names of the four co-heiresses?
Hello,
The visitation of Sussex by Benoit seems to have come across a Lee family of that county, for which it gives a short pedigree. A published version of the two visitations can be consulted at various sites, including this one.

The testament of John Padynton, made in 1452, has been published and can be viewed online at
https://kclpure.kcl.ac.uk/portal/files/2933354/289219_vol3.pdf
It does mention some of his relatives and also some of his wife's.
Does anybody know more about the Lewknor family related to this Lee family by marriage? there is another entry in the Sussex visitation for Lewknor, but I can't find the Roger Lewknor shown as the father in law of the Lee.
Does anybody know the arms used by this Morley family that eventually inherited Glynde?
Thanks

Here is a web site naming the four coheiresses, apparently derived from VCH Herts:
https://bedsarchives.bedford.gov.uk/CommunityHistories/Pepperstock/PepsallManor.aspx
It gives a descent of Pepsall manor consistent with the pedigree's heraldry - Robert Kendale fl 1331, Edward Kendale, two sons dsp, their sister Beatrice married Robert Turk, daughter Joan married John Waleys, son John Waleys d. 1422, a minor, heirs
VCH Beds treats Beatrice Waleys as sole heiress of Woodcroft https://books.google.com/books?id=L63MDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA354
But it was actually transferred by fine (in the form of a typical marriage settlement), described in Joan's ipm:

Ipm of Robert Turk http://www.inquisitionspostmortem.ac.uk/view/inquisition/18-400/401

Copy of Inquisition as in MS. GLY/16; copy of proceedings in Chancery, 4 Nov. 1440,
whereby John Cokayn' son of Beatrice widow of William Milreth, John Padyngton and wife Agnes widow of John Burgh), Robert Lee and wife Joan, and Nicholas Morley and wife Joan deny the truth of the Inquisition; recites MSS. 3 and 5 in
support of their case and seek restitution of the manors.
Since I can't see the originals, I am guessing there is a mistake in the summary

The name of William's wife. If it was Joan, then she had another sister also called

The other two sisters seem clear and married twice.

The inquisition post mortem of Joan, widow of John Waleys names the daughters as Beatrice Cokayne(26+), Joan Levensthorp (21+), Agnes (14+) and Joan (10+), and I count nine different documents dealing with the sisters that

tafGreat. Thanks for looking into it. I am glad I was not misunderstanding the information.
These might not be the Lee and Morley families that I am trying to track down, but just in case I thought I would check.
I am not certain if they happen to have traceable descendants at this time, but it may be useful for other readers of the group.

Joan the second who m Nicholas Morley has descendants at least into the 18th century
For example
Charles /Montagu/ of Papplewick, co Nott; esq; MP Westminster 1722 d Jun 1759 is one such
