***********************************

Patrick Dee died February 13, 1921.  He was age 
93 and 11 months.   His son, Thomas, was living 
with him for the last two years of his life.  His
home was on North Green Street, 
Brownsburg, Indiana.  Hanna Norah/Hanora 
preceded him in death.   

Patrick had a brother named John that fought 
in the Civil War.  I don't know if John ever 
married.  For ten years, John Dee lived with 
his nephew, John Dee and his wife Frances 
Mahoney  (I believe in Los Angeles and San 
Diego, CA).  He died in San Diego. 



DEE MISCELLANEOUS

Martin and Michael Dee, who also lived in Central Mines during the same time as Patrick, might also have been his brothers. Martin was married to a Mary Saunder/Landers in Eagle River, Michigan. There was also a William Dee married to an Ann Daily in Eagle River. I have a death certificate of a Martin D. Allen who was the son of James M. Allen and Hannah Dee. He died at 1229 G. street in Sacramento on 29, May 1937. He was born in Houghton County Michigan in February 1864. He was married to Susan M. He is buried in the Masonic Lawn cemetery in Sacramento. His mother was probably the sister of Patrick Dee. From the 1870 Houghton County, Michigan Census (http://epiphyte.libofmich.lib.mi.us/CensusImages/Roll674/701R.pdf): Allen, James 35 Hannah D. 35 Martin 6 George 4 Edward 3 John 2 Dee, Bridget 24 Allen, Michael 68
