Edward Gee (priest, born 1657)
Edward Gee (1657–1730) was an English clergyman and writer. He was the son of Edward Gee (1613–1688), also a clergyman, and followed in his father's footsteps into the priesthood.
Gee was born in 1657 and educated at Manchester Grammar School and then St John's College, Cambridge, where he matriculated in 1674. He graduated B.A. in 1677, M.A. in 1681, and B.D. in 1688.
He held several ecclesiastical positions throughout his career. He became a Fellow of St John's College, Cambridge, and later served as Rector of Plumbland, Cumberland. He also held a prebendary stall at Durham Cathedral from 1694 until his death.
Gee was known for his writings on theological subjects, particularly those related to the controversies of his time. His works often addressed issues of religious conformity and dissent. He engaged in debates with prominent figures of the day, contributing to the intellectual and religious landscape of late 17th and early 18th century England.
He died on December 17, 1730, and was buried in Durham Cathedral.
