General Notes: Husband - Samuel Lee

---

He was a silk weaver by occupation. He served in the British navy under Lord Nelson, was wounded at the battle of Trafalgar, and on quitting the service shipped on a whaler, which business he followed four years. He afterward engaged in the manufacture of silk at Macclesfield, which he followed for a number of years. He met with a mysterious death while on a visit to his family in the United States, having been last seen on the Erie canal near the city of Utica, New York. It was supposed that he was murdered and his body hidden, as nothing was ever heard of him after the night of the mysterious disappearance.
