Raymond's obituary clearly refers to him as the nephew of Arthur. I also found an old newspaper article in which he's called the nephew of Harold Lees (pro at Dore & Totley). This article https://www.golfhistorie.no/assets/files/Golftrenere%20(pro%C2%B4er)%20i%20Norge/raymond-a.-lees-stavanger-gk.pdf calls him Raymond A. Lees. Looking at freebmd it seems possible that his father was an Alfred Lees, perhaps a brother of Arthur's. Nigej (talk) 10:34, 18 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
