Early life
Janet Norton Lee was born on December 3, 1905 in Manhattan, New York City. She was the middle daughter of James Thomas Aloysius Lee (1880–1968), a lawyer and real estate developer,[2][3] and Margaret A. Merritt (1880–1943). Her parents were both of Irish descent. She had two sisters; Marion Merritt Lee (1904–1947), who married John J. Ryan Jr.,[4] and Winifred Norton Lee, born 1910.
Life
Janet graduated from Miss Spence's School in 1922 and attended Sweet Briar and Barnard Colleges. She was a three-time winner of the hunter championship at the National Horse Show.[5]
She served as a board member of the Newport Historical Society and the Redwood Library. She was also the honorary director of the Robert E. Lee Memorial Association in Stratford, Virginia.[5]
Personal life
Janet was married three times. In 1928,[4] she married her first husband, John Vernou Bouvier III (1891–1957).[6] He was the son of Major John Vernou Bouvier Jr. (1866–1948), a successful attorney, and Maude Frances Sergeant (1869–1940).[7] He was also the brother of Edith Bouvier Beale (1895–1977), later known as the subject of the documentary film, Grey Gardens.[8] Together, they were the parents of two daughters:
Jacqueline Lee Bouvier (1929–1994), who married John F. Kennedy in 1953.[9] After his murder in 1963, she later married Aristotle Onassis in 1968 until his death in 1975.[10]
Caroline Lee Bouvier (born 1933), who married Michael Temple Canfield in 1953, they divorced in 1959. Their marriage was than annulled in 1962,[11] in 1959 she married Prince Stanisław Albrecht Radziwiłł. They divorced in 1974.[12] In 1987 she married the director Herbert Ross. They divorced in 2001.[13]
Mr. Bouvier's womanizing and drinking led to a separation in 1936, a brief reconciliation for a few months in 1937, and then a divorce in 1940.[14]
In 1942, she married her second husband, Hugh Dudley Auchincloss Jr., an attorney and Standard Oil heir; becoming his third wife.[15] Together, they had two children:
Janet Jennings Auchincloss (1945–1985),[16] who was married to Lewis Polk Rutherfurd in 1966.[17][18]
James Lee Auchincloss (born 1947)[19][20][21]
Hugh Auchincloss died in 1976. In 1979, she married for a third time,[22] to her childhood friend Bingham Willing "Booch" Morris (1906–1996).[23] Jacqueline served as her witness.[24] Morris, a widower, was a retired investment banker who lived in Southampton, New York,[22] a graduate of St. George's School and Harvard, where he was a member of the Iroquois and Hasty Pudding Clubs, and was the son of Violet Lee (née Willing) Morris and John Boucher Morris of Baltimore.[25] His late wife, Mary (née Rawlins) Morris,[4][26] was a bridesmaid at Janet's first wedding.[27] They separated in 1981, but remained married until her death from complications arising from Alzheimer's disease in 1989.[5][28][29]
