In my City in the Canadian prairies the Mahs have an association which does many things, I am told. Among which they maintain a continuing record of births and deaths. This is a great way of maintaining a historical record of the various threads of different lines of the Mah families. One can then determine generational positions and lost family ties for future generations.
They apparently have a national association.
I wonder if there is a similar association for the Gee family name. We, however, do have a small one which is slowly fading away.
I am also looking for information on any families that have come from a village in Toisan(Taishan) called Sai Kong Choong

My nephew is a Gee and he says there is a huge one in San Francisco. Try google. If not successful, I will get details from him.

Hi Amy,
Very interesting to hear that you visited the Gee Association! Was one of your ancestors a Gee? I emailed them once as my great grandmother on my maternal grandmother's side is a Gee from 泡埗鄉 Pao Bo Heung. Was looking for a possible zupu lead. Never heard back from them. I guess I may have to pay a visit!

Hi Jeremy!
No, I don't have a Gee ancestor (in the most recent generations anyway), but I was helping someone with their Gee ancestry. A Chinatown community leader gave me an intro to one of the former Gee association presidents and I went up there to meet with him. I can send you that contact information. I don't know when you wrote to them, but they went through a bit of trouble renovating their headquarters a few years back so they may have been pre-occupied. BTW, Tony King's maternal grandmother is a Gee.
Amy
