Hi Sally
I am so glad to hear from someone belonging to the Tee family after so long. If your grandfather was Earnest Tee he must have been brother to my grandmother Essie Tee daughter of Reuben & Alice De Oliveria. Alice was Spanish not sure where she was born. I have been trying to find out for years. The first census that I found (can't remember the year, it was the only one on Ancestry at that time) her birth place was listed as Portugal I have this record and will send you a copy. I have just recently found a Emma Budgen who married Joseph De Oliveria. Joseph was deceased when a daughter Sarah Alice was born in 1864. If this is the same person her wedding cert states her father Joseph is a minor and was still alive. Reuben and Alice were married in 1886 she was 21 which gives her birth as 1865 I have both certs will send you a copy. I still have 2 of my mum's sisters living I am sure they would remember Earnest.
