Arthur Lee married Susan Green
- Dersingham
I am a neurologist based in Queensland Australia and I care for a group of patients with an unusual hereditary whispering voice (spasmodic dysphonia) and facial and neck dystonia (involuntary mucle contractions causing twisting movements). My patients all derive from two women Rachel Lee and Emily Lee (daughters of Emanuel and Susan Lee (nee Baney) who emigrated to Australia in 1886. I know members of the family live around Heacham, Docking, Hunstanton, Holme next the sea and Snettisham and descendents may include members of family's Lee, Baney, Hebb, Potter & Thompson.
But in particular I know Emily and Rachel's brother Arthur Lee was in Dersingham and married Susan Green. They had 8 children, I am wondering if Arthur also had the condition and passed it to him children.
If you personally have a similar condition (or know someone who does) please contact me ASAP as I am travelling to the UK in June 2009 to pass on my knowledge of treatment and management for this condition. In Australia the condition always presents initially with an involuntary whispering voice usually between the ages of 20 & 30 years. Please contact me via email.
