Hello LEEs, Does anyone know the fate of William Collins LEE, born 13 July 1791 at Dudley, Worcester Co., MA? He was a son of Joel and Mary (NEWTON) LEE. The family removed to Townshend, Windham Co., VT in 1793, and later lived at Brookline, VT. The father Joel died on 9 October 1822 and William C. LEE is one of the children to whom money was paid from the estate. After that I can't find his whereabouts--I have checked VT and NY census indexes/films without success. At least five of his siblings (four brothers and a sister) removed to Rose, Wayne County, NY. I don't see any evidence that he went there, too. Mary (NEWTON) LEE's estate only mentions the son who was executor of the estate--no mention of William C. LEE. Has anyone on the list encountered him in records? A brother, John Wesley LEE who later relocated to Ashtabula Co., OH, and then to Painesville, OH, was said to have been involved in the Underground Railroad. Could William have lived somewhere up the line (even Canada)? No evidence on this question. Thanks for any input. Best wishes and happy hunting to all, Gary Gary K.
