5261 note on Find a Grave:

Son of William Henry Lee and Sarah Crockett.

One large gravestone marks the graves of Squire Edward and wife Fannie Sowders Lee at Gordon Cemetery on the west side of Lake Vermilion. The inscription reads:

"Weep not dear children
Disturb not my rest
My Saviour has called me
He thought it best."

There is a persistent Lee Family Legend that Squire is a third cousin of General Robert E. Lee. Squire was a Lincoln supporter and strong Union man during the Civil War. Squire seemed to disapprove of his distant cousin's betrayal of the Union. Squire is thought to have destroyed evidence connecting him with the Virginia Lees. Although the Legend remains unproven, the family resemblance is striking.

Lees Had Ties To Land of Lincoln
Squire Lee of Blount Township, Gen. Lee Were 3rd cousins
by Larry Weatherford, The Commercial-News, Danville, IL, August 26, 2012

In 1829, just one year before Tom Lincoln, his wife and children made that now-famous move to Illinois, a man named William Henry Lee settled with his family here in Vermilion County. Both family names would soon be marked indelibly into the history books of America.

There were a lot of Lees on the early census rolls of Vermilion County. By 1860, William Henry Lee’s son, Squire Edward Lee, was a well-known and respected landowner and farmer with a family of his own. It was an election year, and Squire Edward voted for Tom Lincoln’s son, Abraham, who had spent a good deal of time in Vermilion County himself over the past 20-some years.

Little did either family know that this Western state they were calling home would one day be known as the “Land of Lincoln.” Or that one of the most respected officers in the United States Army, a third cousin of Squire Edward Lee, would soon lead the forces of a new Army for the Confederate States of America in what Lincoln would call a “great Civil War.”

Squire was Lee’s first name, not a title, even though the Lees were about as close to titled gentry as you could come in America. His line of the Lee family included two signers of the Declaration of Independence, an attorney general of the United States, two governors, and the Revolutionary War hero who would make the famous statement at George Washington’s funeral: “First in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his countrymen.”

Those were just some of the renowned Lee family members. The most famous Lee relative was just beginning to achieve his fame. Among his achievements, Robert E. Lee had been a hero of the Mexican War, engineered the port at St. Louis, MO, and had led the capture of John Brown at Harper’s Ferry.

When southern states started to secede, Robert E. Lee chose to turn down an offer to be the commander of the Union forces. He then resigned his post in the U.S. Army, and accepted a commission in the new Confederate States Army. Most of Lee’s immediate family went along with his decision and followed him into the service of the South.

That choice didn’t come without some division in the Lee family. Not only did Squire Edward Lee support the Union while living in Illinois, but many of Lee’s other cousins and family members in Virginia also aligned with the Union. One would even become a rear admiral in the U.S. Navy.

Squire Edward Lee’s homestead and the majority of his land holdings were in Blount Township near what is now Hungry Hollow Road past Woodbury Hill. He lived there with his wife, Fanny, and their children. Other farmland he owned was near Catlin.

It is doubtful that Squire Edward let his friends and neighbors know that he was related to Robert E. Lee, since he was living in the home state of the commander-in-chief of the Union forces. Some of Squire’s descendants believe he tried to hide that fact because he was living in northern territory. They have wondered about their relationship to the famous Lee family for many years, and some say the records were intentionally made unclear on the lineage.

Descendants of another William Henry Lee who also had moved to Vermilion County in 1829 could not establish a tie to the famous Lee family. They even tried DNA testing, and found that they were not related to Robert Edward or Squire Edward Lee.

Even though the records were somewhat muddy as to the relationship of Squire Edward to Robert E. Lee, my friend and fellow researcher, Alan Woodrum, and I were on the track of what one descendant had called a “silver bullet” that tied Squire to the famous Lee family.

Third cousins:

While I was poring over books and genealogy information on the Lee family, Alan e-mailed to let me know that he had found the connection. As we had thought, it was on the Richard Henry Lee side of the family. Rather than second cousins as the oral family history had indicated, Robert Edward and Squire Edward were third cousins.

Squire’s mother was Sarah Crockett Lee. So, as you might expect, the family history has it that she was related to frontiersman, Congressman and hero of the Alamo, Davy Crockett. That has yet to be proven.

Squire Lee died on May 4, 1880. He and several of his family members are buried in the Gordon Cemetery near Lake Vermilion.

As a young man of twenty years, my Great, Great Grandfather, David Cosat, son of the Reverend Jacob Cosat, set out from Mercer County, Kentucky and settled in the new state of Illinois. In 1835 he purchased and homesteaded 80 acres in what was to become Blount Township of Vermilion County. He wed Nancy Traux in 1836 and fathered twelve children, six of whom lived to adulthood. A successful farmer, in 1849 he acquired additional lands, bringing his total holdings to 235 acres. In 1886 David passed to his reward and was buried alongside his wife in Fairchild Family Cemetery about 2 miles from the original 1835 Cosat homestead. Fairchild Cemetery is now part of the Illinois Nature Preserve.

Chester "Rollie" Yeazel was born to Adam and Sarah Yeazel in Homer. In 1915, he married Sophia Cordella Hedges in Fairmount, and they had two sons: Howard and Harold Yeazel. Rollie and Sophia lived in the Center Point area for 27 years, starting in 1918 and were members of the Center Point Church where he served as a deacon and Sunday School superintendent. They moved to Fairmount on March 6, 1945 and he entered public office in 1949, serving as Fairmount Mayor until 1968, including a short time in the early 1960s when he initially didn't seek re-election, but was asked to return after the winning candidate stepped down shortly after election. Improvements under Rollie Yeazel to the town of Fairmount included the installation of the water system and water treatment plant in 1951 at a cost of $135,000 that was raised through municipal and revenue bonds, new signals and gates for the railroad crossing and natural gas that was pumped in from the Sidell area. After he stepped out of public office, he took up the hobby of caning furniture.

LILLARD
A death that has brought deep sadness and shock to her numerous friends was that of Mrs. James M. Lillard last Thursday, who took her life at her home on the Burgin and Shakertown pike. Mrs. Lillard was about 50 years of age, a lovely and lovable woman, but for sometime past she had not been well, suffering with nervous depression that was unusual to her nature, but the result of an attack of influenza last winter. Just after noon, last Thursday she went to the attic of their pretty bungalow home, and when Mr. Lillard missed her about a quarter of an hour later and went in search of her, he found her suspended from the rafter by a small rope, which she had placed about her neck and evidently thrown her whole weight upon, for life was gone when he loosed the cord. Mrs. Lillard was formerly Miss Nannie Gritton and a splendid woman who was held in the highest esteem by every one who knew her. Sometime ago their home on the Jackson pike where they had been living for about twenty years, was sold and Mr. and Mrs. Lillard moved to the handsome bungalow which they purchased from Mr. Gwinn, on the Burgin and Shakertown pike, and since then her nervous depression seemed to have increased resulting in temporary insanity. The funeral was held at the Presbyterian church in this city, conducted by Rev. J. J. Rice, and the interment was at Spring Hill cemetery. Besides her husband she is survived by an only daughter, Mrs. R. Sprole Lyen, of this county.

5298 Note on Find a Grave:
Watkins Ferry, entrance of Braddock Road...

1750 SURVEY: The survey by Guy Broadwater dated February 18, 1749/50 is consistent with other evidence that the homestead of Jacobus Jansen Hoagland was located on the Potomac River north of North Mountain and that it was near the lands of Barent Newkirk and John Hood (father of Elizabeth Hood). It affirmatively appears that Richard Hoagland, eldest son of Jacobus, was of an age to own property in 1750 and that he had secured property near his father.

1760 FERRY: "August 5, 1760. Frederick County, Virginia. Court Records Book 9, page 101. Henry Hoagland appointed overseer of road from Richard Hogland's Ferry to go by John Hogland's Mill to Capt. Thomas Caton's and it is ordered that the tithables three miles on each side of the said road open and keep the same in repair according to law."

SOURCE: Frederick County Virginia, County Court, Order Book, Volume 9, Page 101 (entries dated August 5, 1760). The record is stored on 35 mm microfilm reels, and the LDS reference is FHL US/CAN Film 31419.

From Virginia they moved to Western Pennsylvania. This information is consistent with the removal of Richard to lands further west prior to May 2, 1767.

1773 July: Turkeyfoot Township created from Brother's Valley Township

Excerpt: Somerset County [PA] Outline, Page 260
Turkeyfoot Township was established out of the western part of Brothersvalley Township by the Bedford County Court in July 1773. It included nearly all of the western half of the present area of Somerset County and the southwestern corner of what is now Cambria County. Turkeyfoot Township contained many of the first settlers of Somerset County. This township was so named because of the peculiar conjunction of the three streams which unite where Confluence Borough is now located.

Some of the first settlers of the Turkeyfoot Region were Henry Abrahams, James Spencer, Richard Hoagland and Benjamin Jennings. Henry Abrahams built a cabin on the point of land between the Youghiogheny and the Casselman Rivers in 1765. James Spencer lived on the point of land between the Casselman River and Laurel Hill Creek at about the same time.

Richard Hoagland owned a large tract of land lying east of the Youghiogheny River on both sides of the Braddock Road. He had the most cleared land in what is now Somerset County, the first assessment was made in 1772. He had seventy-one acres of cleared land at that time.

Benjamin Jennings' land was located between Confluence and Ursina Boroughs.
