History

Mrs. LEE Wou Sze was born in China in the [新會 Sunwui / Xinhui] county of 廣東 Guangdong province on March 6, 1882.

She arrived in Victoria, B.C. on November 23, 1914, with her son, Lee Wah Jong (1906-1929), Miss Lee Lan (1895-1987) and Lee Cheong Dai (c. 1903-1985). The group was exempt from paying the head tax; she arrived as a merchant’s wife. As shared by her grandson, Gerry Yee, “We believe [Miss Lee Lan] is a paper daughter… [and Lee Cheong Dai] is a paper son of Lee Wou Sze.”
