After the murders of David and Stephen Lester and the execution of Hannah’s son Reuben Dunbar for those murders, David and Hannah left Albany County. They settled in Clifton Park in Saratoga County and lived out their lives there. They were a generous family and throughout most of the rest of their lives they had other family members living with them, and David’s will demonstrates this in his every provision.

==Death==
David died on August 6, 1881. Hannah died on August 8, 1883. They were buried beside each other at the Baptist Church Cemetery in Clifton Park, Saratoga County, NY.
