I am delighted to announce that after his last book some 12 years ago ! For the first time !! the Incredible Smith and Lee Genealogies as detailed above will once more be available to buy .

As detailed on my page Romany References in the menu,these 3 books are essential to anyone with Smith or Lee ancestors but of course as these two well known Romany families married into many if not nearly all!! the English Romanichals, these book are a must have to any serious Romany researcher and family historian.

Terence Lee has been very busy since his last books , and has been researching and writing a very major set of works which will be produced as a Trilogy (which I myself cant wait to get my hands on!!) As I have stated before these books are destined to be the classics of the future and the biggest advance in Romany History since the days of the Gypsy Lore Society and the days of the old Rais themselve's !!

The Book's are now ready!!!! Mr.T. Lee has asked me to put the details (see below) as there are revisions to the original books and it does get rather complicated as these works are very intensive and complicated as is the nature of Romany research!.
