  1. 14.  Richard Tee was born in 1805 in Ireland; died on 27 Mar 1873 in Kingston, Des Moines County, Iowa; was buried in Saint Mary's Catholic Cemetery, Dodgeville, Des Moines County, Iowa.

    Other Events:

    • Census: 1850, Yellow Springs, Des Moines County, Iowa
    • Census: 1860, Benton Township, Des Moines County, Iowa
    • Census: 1870, Benton Township, Des Moines County, Iowa

    Notes:

    note: In the 1850 US census there is an Elizabeth, age 9, born in Ireland, who is listed as part of this family. However, her place of birth is listed as Ireland and Margaret Tee, age 9, is listed as born in Pennsylvania. Also in the 1860 US census there is a daughter Elizabeth, age 3, born in Iowa. I think that the Elizabeth born in 1841 was not a daughter but rather another relative. I find no further record of her.
