HARRY E. LEE, a progressive and enterprising young farmer residing on section 25, Cedar Township, was born in Louisa County, Iowa, on the 13th day of February, 1868. His parents are Robert and Julia (Cecil) Lee, the former a native of Ohio, and the latter of Kentucky. They are now residents of Louise County, and are the parents of four children: Harry, the subject of this sketch; Ettie, Ethel and Millie, who are yet inmates of the parental home.

Our subject was educated in the common schools of his native county, where the days of his childhood and youth were passed. He was reared to farm life, assisting his father in the cultivation of the land until nineteen years of age, when he led to the altar Miss Lula Case, the daughter of Harry and Jessie (Thompson) Case, their union being celebrated on the 4th of July, 1887. The young couple are now residing on a farm owned by Mr. Lee's grandfather, and to them has been born a little daughter, Jessie Viola. Although yet a young man we predict that Mr. Lee will make his life a success, for he is already numbered among the leading and energetic farmers of the community in which he resides.
