Thomas Fee married Helen Penn 16 Dec 1824 at Clermont County, Ohio
"A member of an activist family, Robert E. Fee conducted slaves from his home in Moscow, in Clermont County, Ohio. Also involved in the family tradition of rescues were his father, Thomas Fee, Sr., of Maryland; a brother, Thomas Fee, Jr.; and a cousin, Arthur Fee and his wife Sarah Miller Fee, in Felicity, Ohio. According to Nancy Fee Pease, the daughter of Thomas Fee, Sr., her father received a party of six refugees in the last years of his life. Nancy performed her share of the rescue work from the medical office of her husband, Dr. Leavitt Thaxter Pease in Williamsburg, Ohio. Contributing to the local effort was farmer Jacob Ebersole in Felicity, the brother of Robert E. Fee's wife, Catherine Ebersole Fee. Thomas Fee, Jr., maintained the two-story family home in Moscow and signaled to fugitives along the Ohio River by lighting candles in the window.
The son of conductor Thomas Fee Sr., the younger Thomas Fee maintained a way station in Moscow, Ohio. Like his siblings Robert E. Fee and Nancy Fee Pease, Thomas Fee, Jr., was a devout abolitionist. From his two-story home on Water Street, he signaled refugees with lit candles in upstairs windows. He welcomed wanderers to his cellar and provided meals and clothing from his own dry goods store before ferrying them to his cousins in Felicity."
