George S. Gee died Wednesday of typhoid-pneumonia at the home of C.W. Ladd who, with Will Delancey, had been caring for him since the previous Saturday. Services were held from Town Hall and the remains carried to the White Pine Cemetery for burial.

Mr. Gee was a native of Lowell, Massachusetts, his parents being William and Sarah Gee. He and his brother Tom came to the Tomichi district about nine years ago, and they owned two ranches six miles below White Pine. He lived there until a few months ago, when he removed to North Star being employed by the May-Mazeppa mine. Last November, he visited his home in Lowell, and on his return last May, he took charge of the Turner & Macy store in North Star.

Death notice published in the White Pine Cone newspaper, 31 Oct 1890, p. 4

Note: His older brother, Thomas W. Gee, died in September 1884 and is probably buried in the White Pine Cemetery. Tom's death notice in the White Pine Cone newspaper made no mention of a funeral nor burial location.
