John Lee born April 20,1760 in Flemington, New Jersey married in Morris County, NJ Margaret Lowery. He apparently came to Woodford, Kentucky with his father, but there is considerable confusion in the records there, since there was another John Lee there from the Virginia family of Lees, who was very prominent citizen of Versailles, being an original settler of that town. He is however reported in Gallatin County in the census of 1810 but appears in Jefferson County, IN in 1814. John Lee was a Revolutionary soldier. He obtained land (as the result of military duty) in Switzerland, IN. His widow applied for pension on June 26, 1845 and in various affidavits made by acquaintances to help her in getting this pension, we learn something of his various movements. Robert Poindexter, aged 78 testified that he knew John and Margaret for 50 years, first in Woodford county, and then in Gallatin County, where most of their family was born, that the family later resided on the waters of Indian-Kentuck River in Milton Township, Jefferson County, IN. Thomas Mounts testified that he knew them since they lived at the mouth of the Kentucky River since 1790. The affadavit of Samuel Bellamy, a Methodist clergyman living across the line in Switzerland County, In said that he knew John Lee and his wife for about 14 years before John died and that he lived within 8 miles of them for 26 years until they moved onto the waters of the Indian-Kentuck about 3 miles from where the dependent now lives. John Lee died September 17, 1838. Their children were according to the widows statement; Gershom b. 2-11-1781, Mary b. 12-8-1783, Rebecca b. 2-10-1787, Nathan b. 10-15-1789, John b. 4-15-1792, James b. 5-12-1796, Sarah b. 2-24-1799, Nancy b. 8-4-1801, Nathaniel b. 5-16-1804. John and Margaret sold 40 acres of land in 1835 to daughters Nancy and Rebecca. They sold land on the south side of Indian-Kentuck to Nathaniel Lee. I believe we are another line of Lee's entirely from the Virginia Lees and the Connecticut branches. Does anyone know of the John Lee of the Virginia branch mentioned here? Our John's father was Gershom Lee who helped found Flemington, NJ.
