Portrait of Joshua Gee, d.1748, husband of Sarah Gardner, Boston, MA
The online website of the organization Historic New England pictures a fine portrait of the Reverend Joshua Gee, of Boston, Massachusetts, who died in 1748. Rev. Gee married his third wife Sarah Gardner (b. 1704) in 1740.
On the date of my writing this message, a photo of this portrait is still available online at:

but it may be taken offline soon. In the event it is taken offline, I have downloaded it and will be happy to send a copy freely by email to Gee and Gardner family researchers. Someone in the families ought to have it, which is why I’m keeping a copy of it and posting about it. It would be a very great shame and injustice were it to be missed by the Gee and Gardner families.

Please email me directly rather than respond to me on this site as I may not see that response.
If it were portrait of an 18th century Pease gentleman in my family line, I’d certainly hope someone would do the same for me. Call it a simple, but appropriate, genealogy good deed.
