Charles A. Gee is my 2nd Great Grandfather.
He married three times:
M.1 - Sophronia Culp on 20 Oct 1868. To this union, three children were born, Maude E. Gee, William Henry Gee (my Great-Grandfather), and Charles Edward Gee. My Great-Great-Grandmother abandoned her family for reasons unknown and Charles eventually obtained a divorce from her.
M.2 - Mary Elliott, b. 1858 in Ireland; d. 16 Aug 1887 in Seward, Fulton Co., Ohio. They married 26 Oct 1884. It is thought they had a child together, and that both mother and child died during childbirth or shortly thereafter. Burial location of both mother and child is currently unknown. UPDATE, Aug. 2012 - Charles and Mary had two children, Elsie A. Gee (b. 21 Sep 1885 in Royalton, Fulton Co., OH) and Lucy L. Gee (b. 29 Apr 1887 in Royalton, Fulton Co., OH).
M.3 - Juliette Adelade Steward Newcomer on 02 May 1888 in Fulton Co., OH.
