Thanks, Penny. I really enjoyed researching this one.

It was really really good. I have always been enthralled by this family and their tragic story. I was in St Petersburg many years ago and saw their graves in the chapel. Thank you for sharing all your hard work!

The black-and-white photo shows a person wearing a judicial robe with a white collar, holding two large books. The background features a bookshelf filled with legal volumes, including titles like "Canada Gazette" from 1920, suggesting a legal or judicial setting, possibly a library or courtroom. The attire and setting indicate the person might be a judge or lawyer, and the style of the photo suggests it could be from an earlier era, potentially mid-20th century.

Margaret Jean Gee never let barriers stop her from achieving what she wanted.
Inspired by the injustices she saw against Chinese-Canadians in Vancouver's Chinatown growing up, she pursued a career in law and spent her life helping others.
This is her story.
