I am looking for anyone with information on

China cir. 1932 to meet up with his father
in San Francisco. His given name is Yee Dean
Lee (American name is Henry NMI Yee)and his
village is Canton was called Nam Sam Duc Sam
in an area called Schlom Fou (these are only
phonetic spellings)and his language dialect
is called Hoi San (Thai San in Mandarin). He
now lives in Eudora, Arkansas (since 1956)
but he moved from San Francisco in the late
1930's to Arkansas
