HARRY G. McGEE is one of the leading real estate dealers of Council Bluffs, in which business he engaged in 1887. He does a general real estate business, but devotes his attention principally to the platting and improving of residence property, and has platted several of the finest residence additions in the city - among them being Morningside. This addition is owned jointly by Mr. McGee and his brother Judge McGee, who has expended a large amount of money in improving and beautifying it, and it is now acknowledged to be the most attractive suburb of Council Bluffs, which is noted for its beauty as a residence city.

Mr. McGee is a son of Manasseh McGee, who came to Council Bluffs in 1855 and entered a large amount of land, which has since become very valuable. Mr. McGee was born in Virginia in 1858, but his early life was spent in Pennsylvania. His father never became a permanent resident of this city, but came here and made investments in 1855, returning to the east where he resided until his death. His family became permanent residents of Council Bluffs in 1874. Our subject was educated in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania and is now a successful businessman and an enterprising and progressive citizen.
