My grandfather (Lee Yee Hui) settled in Penang at the young age of 17 as carpenter. My father was born in Penang in 1906. His name was Lee Kam Mao. He was also known as Lee Ping Wah or Lee Wai Mao.

My father had three older brothers (Lee Kam Man, Lee Kam Chun, Lee Kam Hing) and at least two older sisters. My father returned to China in 1922 and eventually settled in Hong Kong.

My grandparents once lived on a back street near the Quan Yin Temple in Penang. If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of my uncles and aunts or any members of the Lee family, please contact Simon Lee through this website. Thanks in advance.

Simon W Lee

家祖李公宜煦祖貫廣東省台山縣 (昔之新寧) 東坑塔腳鄉。於十九世紀未期，以十七之齡，年未弱冠，遠涉重洋，僑居於馬來西亞之檳城、從事木匠之業。育有四男：錦文、錦全、錦興、錦茂 (即先父。字炳華、號偉茂) 、二女、名字不詳。

先君於一九二二年 (時十六歲) 獨自返回祖國，後定居於香港。時逢亂世，日寇侵掠，魚雁不通，音訊斷絕。今欲聯絡各伯姑兄弟，以圖聚首，惟時移世換，不知其所，而資料稀少，只知家祖於先父年幼時搬遷到新埠觀音廟後街。

本人於二零零一年旅遊檳城時、會唔觀音廟後街之長久居民李亞娥女士、相信家祖曾於三品巷三十三號居住。各位賢君如有上列各人或其子孫之消息請與此網站聯絡，萬分感謝。

李煥祥謹啟
