Elizabeth Medstand was born about 1660 in Northumberland, VA. She was the daughter of Thomas Medstand, her mother may have been Elizabeth Lawson.

Elizabeth married Charles Lee, son of Richard Lee the immigrant, about 1676 and they had four children. Charles was a gentleman and a planter. He also served as a captain in the county militia and a Justice. They lived at Cobb's Hall.

Charles died in 1701. In addition to other bequests he left to their son, Thomas, "all my land on Rappahannock riverside, had by my wife." He named Elizabeth as his executrix. Elizabeth died soon after Charles and did not leave a will. A court order dated December 16th, 1703, gave Hancock Lee, brother of Charles, control of his estate and ordered him to look after his minor orphan children.

Elizabeth and Charles were both buried at the Cobb's Hall burying ground.
