On 4 Mar 1813 Thomas York of Lee, chairmaker, sued David Davis of Lee, husbandman, for $50 for non-payment of three notes that he signed for varying amounts over the previous few years dated 1 Dec 1809 ($4), 1 Dec 1810 ($6.19) and 5 Mar 1811 ($8.00). The second note was witnessed by Elijah York and the third by Daniel York, likely Thomas's brothers. [Strafford County Superior Court case #1813-36]

When Thomas married his third wife Harriet he was living in Lee and she was from Exeter, N.H., although the History of Durham gave her residence as Brentwood, N.H.

When the 1850 census was taken Thomas was a farmer living in Lee on property worth $2000. Living with him was 60-year-old Mary Leathers who, since his third wife had died ten years earlier, might be a fourth wife or just a friend of relative living with him. Five of his children were with him as well.

In 1791 a road was laid out from Concord to Durham and Elijah York of Lee is listed as one of the many landowners along the way who were compensated for losses due to the construction. He was compensated 25 pounds and the road ran through 50 rods of his land. [NH Provincial and State Papers, 18: 853, 22:592] If this Elijah was really born ca. 1789 then this must refer to a different, as yet unknown, Elijah York.

When the 1850 census was taken Elijah was a farmer living in Lee with real estate worth $4000. Living with him were his wife Comfort, his son David, David's son Fred B., his wife's 90-year-old aunt Elizabeth Chapman, and a 13-year-old Sarah A. Davis who is probably a relation to Comfort's mother whose maiden name was Davis.

MotherElizabeth Tuttle b. 14 Feb 1766, d. 25 Jan 1817
Last Edited9 Feb 2024
Birth*Elizabeth York was born on 24 December 1798 in Lee, Strafford County, New HampshireG.1,2 
Marriage*She married Nathaniel B. Sides on 29 November 1827 in Lee, Strafford County, New HampshireG. They were both residents of Lee.3,4 
Death*Elizabeth York died of cancer on 17 March 1870 in Portsmouth, Rockingham County, New HampshireG.5,1 
Burial*She was buried in Harmony Grove Cemetery in Portsmouth.6 
Some online trees have suggested that she married Job R. Durgin, whose family with wife Betsy was enumerated in the 1850 census of Lee in amongst many of the Lee York families. But proof that she married Nathaniel Sides comes from the Durgin familiy Bible that gives the birth and death dates for Elisa York, daughter of Eliphalet and Elizabeth (Tuttle) York, as being the same date as the death record found in Portsmouth for Elizabeth Sides.
