Emigration: Date: ABT. 1748
Place: indentured at the age of 20 years as a cook to Thomas Lee, esq. of Virginia. He earned eight pounds a year sterling cooking in the kitchen of the Stratford Hall Plantation, a good wage for a cook. Stratford Hall is the ancestral home of Robert E. Lee.
Note: Richard Mynatt's place in history is secured by his successful suit for release from indentureship from Thomas Lee, heir of Philip Ludwell Lee. It seems that Thomas Lee had the tendency to take advantage of the fact that most of his indentures were not well educated and were unable to prove their cases. Not so with Richard Mynatt.

"The Lees entertained frequently. Setting a good table was an art and a reflection of Elizabeth Lee's domestic management and elegance. Thomas Lee had employed two English male indentured cooks, the latter of which was highly skilled and also worked for a few years for Philip Ludwell Lee. In 1782, Philip Ludwell Lee's cook, Caesar was 50 years of age. He may have benefitted from the instruction of Richard Mynatt, the English indentured cook who left Stratford in 1754."
