Lee was the son of Thomas Mills (1825-1908) and Lucretia Barton Mills (1828-1910). He was born 28 March 1872 in Posey County, Indiana, USA.
Lee married Sarah Eliza Wolfinger (1870-1932) in Illinois on 16 December 1894. They had the following children:
Neva Ann Mills (1897-1995)

Lawrence Morene Mills (1907-1984)
Lee next married Anna Sanders Glover (1887-1980) in 1940. No children are known to have been born to this marriage.

After his marriage to Sarah Wolfinger in 1894, the couple and their daughter Neva Ann showed up in Asbury Township of Gallatin County, Illinois, for the 1900 census. Lee and his family were the next family down on the census page from his parents Thomas and Lucretia. (census image here) (View neighbors in HTML)
1910 found the family still in Asbury Township, but the birth of their twins Florence and Lawrence added two more heads to the family. (census image here)
Neva married Norvin Murphy in 1915 so she doesn't show up with the rest of the family in the 1920 census, although she and Norvin were also living in Asbury Township. (census image here)
