LEE also LEA, LEIGH:
Of the original LEE settlers to America, there were five families between whom no relationship has been traced: JOHN (1d) to Hartford in 1635 and to Farmington in 1641; John to Ipswich, Mass in 1632; Richard to Virginia in 1641; Thomas to Boston about 1700; and Thomas(1) who died on passage to America and left his widow Phebe and children to Saybrook and thence to Providence and became the ancestor of a distinguished family in that city [from Refugees of 1776 from Long Island to Connecticut].LEES OF NEW ENGLAND AND OTHER STATES
(From Lees of Farmington Book)
Among the early emigranats to the Colonies were several families by the name of Lee, Lea, and Leigh - the same name but spelled in different ways. No connection, as far as learned, has been established among these families, except from inference, as coming from the same locality in England.I. John Lee who came from Braintree, Essex Co. England in 1634 to Cambridge, came to Hartford 1635, and to Farmington 1641.
II.John Leigh (Lee) - "A younger son of an ancient and honorable family of Burton St., London." Described as a person of good abilities in the bloom of life - came to Mass. and settled aat Agawam or Ipswich in Essex Co. His name is first found on the Colonial records April 1, 1634. He died 1671. His two sons John and Joseph, by agreement, began 1677 to spell their name "Lee." A branch of this family settled at Barre, Mass. Gideon Lee, a former mayor of New York, was a member of this family. The geneealogy of this family was compild by Dr. William Lee M.D. of Washington D.C. (deceased February 1893) was published in 1888.
III. Thomas Lee left England (1641) with his family consisting of his wife, several daughter, and one son, Thomas. He died on the passage of smallpox.
IV. Richard Lee, of Virginia
V. Thomas Lee came in 1642 and settled at Ipswich, Mass. Records furnish little information.
VI. Henry Lee came in 1650- said to have come from Chesire, England - was born in Boston in 1655."Henry Lee is admitted an inhabitant (of Boston) on his good behavior, and Capt. Davenport is engaged to save the town any expense that may arise from his family." Eventually settled at Manchester, Mass. where he died 1675-Inventory Pounds144 debts Pounds 28.
VII. Walter Lee appears on the twon records at Westfield, Mass as early as 1660. The name continues on record for more than a century at Westfield and Northampton and then disapears. He is suppossed to have been the Walter Lee who made a "Freeman" at Haerford, May 1654.
VIII. Willian Lee, New York, In the History of Westchester Co. , New York. It is found that he came from Nottingham, Eng. in 1675 and his decendents settled on Long Islnad and New Jersey. They claim descent from the Lees of Lee Magna, Kent, England.
IX Samuel Lee of Swansea, Mass, came from Warwickshire, England in 1692. Buld a house near Lees River.
X. Thomas Lee of Boston. The name appears about 1700. This is a well known family of Boston, Cambridge, and other towns, prominent with other families with whome its member have intermarried. The Christian name of the first American ancestor seems not to have been positively settled. A bronze statue of Thomas Lee may be seen in Boston, but its significance has not been acertained.
XI Thomas and Benjamin Lee, of Boston, 1765, and Landcaster, Mass. 1797. No particulars of this family.
XII. William Lee of Norwalk, Conn. This is a highly respected family whose ancestor is believed to have been William, but at what time time he came to America is unknown. The descendants appeaar to have made their way up the Western part of the State, and were prevalent in Ridgfield and Redding in the early part of the last century, some of them purchasing land from the Indians. Still later the appeared in Salisbury. Joseph Lee and his wife, Mary and Joseph Jr. and wife Mary, were admitted to the church of Rev. Jonathan Lee by letter from Redding in Dec. 1747.
THE VIRGINIA LEES
It has often been asserted that the Lees of Farmington and those of Virgnia were of the same English origin, and there has long been a standing tradition to that effect.
Tht both families came from Essex county, Englad, is clear, and their common origin is by no means impossible, but there is no satisfactory documentary evidence to show a family connection. TheNew England pilgrims were Puritans and Non-Conformists, who came for the purpose of seeking religious liberty and reedom. The Virginia Lees were churchmen and adherents of the Stuarts, and Richard Lee came out under a commission from the crown.
Of the pilgrims leaving home, a great majority were males, and but few past the mereddian of life. They had endured suffering and persecution in the wars of Charles I. and the severity of Laud, Archbishop of Canterbury, in his hatred of heretics. Essex county, and especially Cholchester was the stronghold of dissenters from the days of Wickliffe and particularly so in the sisteensth century.
GENEALOGY OF THE DECENDENTS OF JOHN LEE by Rev Samuel (6) Lee fully printed in the REGISTER (for October 1860, xiv. 331). Note that Samuel's detailed efforts provided the primary reference for my genealogical
research of the early Lees. We are indebted to his scholarly presentation. I shall cite below, his preamble to his research."In the "Book of Rolls," so called, in London, there is a list of a company who sailed from Ipswich in the ship FRANCIS, John Cutting, master, bound for New-England 'the last of April 1634', (in an official paper containing the above list the date is the Tenth daye od April) in which we find the name of JOHN LEA, aged 13, in the care of William Westwood. Westwood was 28 and his wife, Bridget, 32 years of age.
"JOHN LEE, of course, was under the care of Westwood and went with him from Boston to Hartford. In 1641, a colony from Hartford settled the town of Farmington. JOHN LEE was one of them. Hiw house was where is now Miss Porter's school for young ladies. It is a common tradition among his decendants that he came from Colchester,-whose nearest port was Ipswich,- and the name, LEE, is a very common one in the records of that town. Among the first proprieters of Farmington was Deacon Stephen Hart, and young Lee may have had special reasons for emigrating with Deacon H. He afterward married his daughter Mary.
"JOHN (1) LEE, the emigrant, born in England about 1620; came to New-England, 1634; removed to Hartford Ct. 1635; one of the original settlers of Hartford; married MARY HART 1658;himself and his wife joined the church, Aug. 15, 1660. In the old cemetary in Farmington is his tombstone, with the following inscription. It is a course unhewn slab, some two feet in height and eighteen inches wide, that must have been broken out of the stone by a dull tool driven lengthwise and leaving the letters jagged:"

Camden, MaineThere are several questions whicvh are still unsolved:
1. John (1) was a ward of the westwoods and lived with them until he removed to Farmington. The circumstances all go to show that his relations were those of consanguinty; but this can only be call inferential, and not show susceptibility of proof.
2. Who were his parents and family and what relation did he bear to those of his name, who emigrated from Essex Co. about the same period of time, and whom brief mention is made in this work (Sarah M. Lee)

ABOUT COLCHESTER FROM WHENCE CAME YOUNG JOHN LEE:
COLCHESTER, district and borough, county of Essex, England. It is
situated on the River Colne and has an area of 129 square miles. As
Camulodunum, the town of Colchester was the capital of the pre-
Roman Belgic ruler Cunobelinus and is so named on his coins.
Although burnt in AD 60, during the rising of the British queen
Boudicca, Colchester soon became one of the chief towns in Roman
Britain, and surviving relics of this period include walls and
gateways. The Saxons called the old town Colneceaste, and Domesday
Book (1086)mentions it as Colcestra. The town's first character was
given in 1189. Colchester's castle keep (built around 1080) is the
largest of its kind in England and now houses a museum of Romano-
British antiquities. Holy Trinity Church (1050) has a late Saxon
Tower, and the Augustinian St. Botolph's Priory retains part of the
Norman west front, nave, and arcades. The 13th-century town was a
major port. Both Elizabeth I and James I encouraged Flemish weavers
to settle there and to manufacture baize fabric, and cloth making
still flourishes. The trade in oysters from the River Colne also
has a long history.The borough has picturesque scenery, ranging from the beaches and
estuaries, on the east coast to Dedham vicinity, which was often
the subject of John Constable's landscapes. Colchester town's
industries include printing and the manufacture of electrical
equipment, diesel engines, lathes, and bearings. The University of
Essex, founded in 1961, is in Colchester. Pop (1981)town 88,847,
(1991) prelim. 141,000.The Puritan exodus was directly was directly connected with the English struggle for liberty. In the twenty years between 1620 - 1640, 26,000 came to New England; but of that number, scarcely 500 came before 1629.
The rest came between 1629 and 1640. This is the exact period when Charles I was trying to rule England without a Parliment.The Pilgrims were more more radical and pronounced in their religius and political opinions, but the Puritans were not far behind them, especially since they had breathed the free air of the new world for a season.
WILLIAM WESTWOOD
Our interest in William Westwood arises from the fact of his guardianship over our common ancestot, John Lee, from the time of his immigration to this country , aged 13, to his majority at the age of 21, and the supposed relationship existing between them.
William Westwood was born in Essex County in the Eastern part of England, in 1606. Nothing is known of his arely life until his appearence in Cambridge, then called Newtown, about 1632. He is supposed to have come with a company from Braintree in Essex County, England, as the Cambridge records show.
In various records he is named as "Yoeman, a title next to Nnobility. He was possed of a landed estate, and either left itto come to America, or inherited it afwards, as appears by his appointment of an agent, with power of attorney to take charge of it.
Our information is gleanded entirely from meager public records, many of which are in such a defaced and mutilated condition as to require skill and patience to decipher.
Savage, in his genealogical Notes, says, "He may have beed there as early as 1632," and the records of Cambridge seem to confirm it. In an agreement concerning the dividio of pales (fences for a common field), William Westweoode was. . . "directed to build 39 rods," and "Stephen Hart, to build 8 rods," and others to build their shares. Dated (torn off, but the previous to December 24, 1633.) "The 5th August 1633, lots granted for cow yards: William Westwoode 1 acre,Stephen Hart 1/2 acre," and others.
