Mr. Gee has not been in good health for several years. For the past several days he has been confined to his bed. He was born in Oldham, near Manchester England, June 13, 1873, the son -of Joseph Gee and Clara Stafford Gee. His parents were cotton operators and his mother worked as a weaver In the cotton mills. The Gee family, consisting con-sisting of . the parents and six children, left England for Utah on the day that James was one year old. They had intended to go to Moroni to join some former friends but on arrival in Salt Lake City they were asked by Brigham Young to go down to Utah's Dixie to as sist in getting the newly opened cotton factory near St George in operation. The family resided in Dixie for two years, due to ill health, caused by chins and fever that were prevalent there they left at that time. They then moved to Moroni which has been the family home since. In 1922 Mr. Gee and his family moved to Delta and in 1927 settled in Lehi. While living in a little town of Washington, near St. George, James contracted a disease, which the local doctors diagnosed as Black Canker. This left him dreadfully disfigured and a physical wreck. He was cured in a miraculous manner man-ner by the power of the priesthood. When he was fifteen years of age he was operated on and his face rebuilt, re-built, changing his appearance wonderfully won-derfully for the better. He grew up in Moroni taking an acthe part in the life of a typical rural community. He was engaged in various occupations, such as farming, sheepherding, sheering and mining. On May 25, 1904, he married Engebor Sorenson In the Manti temple, who survives him: also three sons,' Tendle Swen and Devere Gee, Lehi; Lester Joseph Gee, Genolda; one daughter, Mrs. Clara Grygla, Lyndall Junction, six brothers and sisters, Samuel E Gee, Lehi; Albert W.
