That's incorrect. Lee did associate with them a great deal.

Actually, I would say most Southerners think they know more about him then they actually do, although there are certainly the Southereners obsessed with him.

And I don't claim a bloodline to him (although my great-aunt did have a picture of him over the dresser that the Yankee soldiers let their horses feed from when they came through). My family was in Virginia before Lee's was.

Southern fashion is influenced by the Gulf.
Not in Virginia (or at least the parts of it that can still be called Southern), the Carolinas or much of Georgia.
