Lee-King family

This photograph was collected for the exhibit, “But Women Did Come”: 150 Years of Chinese Women in North America. The exhibit premiered at the Metropolitan Toronto Reference Library in 1987, and brought together two complementary shows, one on Chinese American Women and the other on the history of Chinese women in Canada. The photographs in But Women Did Come document the lives of Chinese women in North America from the pioneer days (beginning in the 1830s) to the 1980s.

Included in this database are photographs from Chinese Canadian family albums and Canadian archival institutions. The online version of the Canadian exhibit is available at: http://www.mhso.ca/ggp/Exhibits/Chinese_Women/.

A photo of Mrs. Lee Sing-Wei (née Chan Hong-Yee). Mr. Lee Sing-Wei married his wife in China and then returned to Canada. She later came over to Canada by herself to join her husband in 1919.
