Biographical / Historical

The Gee Family Association (GFA) is an organization of generations of Gees and their extended families. The GFA has chapters in several major U.S. cities. Each year, the Houston organization gathers at two major events, a Chinese New Year Banquet, a family picnic, as well as varying activities in between. The GFA hosts an annual Chinese New Year Dinner which celebrates special achievements, recognition of family member births, graduates, marriages, and elders, Gee pioneer families, and the Gee Education Fund Scholarships. Through these gatherings, genealogical information is exchanged, family news is shared, and cultural traditions are maintained. [Exceprted from GFA brochure, 2019.]
