Last Edited10 Sep 2021
Birth*Gree, son of Ulysses S. Grant "Gree" Irick and Emma Blair, was born on 9 December 1901 in Indian Territory (now Oklahoma). The Lyn Blair tree at Ancestry claims his name was Ulysses S. Grant "Gree" Irick Jr. but offers no source which shows that name. It's a logical conclusion from the 'Jr' but as yet uncertain. Gree's SSDI entry says he was born in Colorado.2,3,4,5 
Census1910He appeared on the 1910 Federal Census of El Yeso Pct., Chaves Co., New Mexico in the household of his parents, Ulysses S. Grant "Gree" Irick and Emma Blair, as 8 yo son Gree Irick.5 
Census1920Gree appeared on the 1920 Federal Census of Lindsay Twp., Garvin Co., Oklahoma in the household of his parents, Ulysses S. Grant "Gree" Irick and Emma Blair, as 18 yo mechanic son Gree Irick.6 
Marriage*He married Mabel Bell Gillis on 15 January 1928 at the bride's home in Grady Co., Oklahoma. My preliminary research suggests their children were Daisy J (1929-1931), Larry Wayne (1931-1993), Bert Edward (1935-2017, m. Yvonne Darlene Olson 1955 in Los Angeles), and Barbara Irick (1936-1996).7 
Census1930Gree and Mabel appeared on the 1930 Federal Census of Lindsay Twp., Garvin Co., Oklahoma, enumerated 17 April 1930, as 26 yo farm laborer Grady Boide & 19 yo wife Mabel Irick. Their 0.10 yo daughter Daisy J Irick was listed as living with them. The name Grady is struck out with Boide added after it.8 
Census1940*Gree and Mabel appeared on the 1940 Federal Census of Glendora, Los Angeles Co., California, enumerated 11 April 1940, as 35 yo owner/operator of a gas station Gree & 29 yo wife Mabel B Irick. Their children 8 yo L Wayne, 4 yo Bert, and 4 yo Barbara Irick were listed as living with them, as well as 31 yo sister-in-law Anna E Isbell Atkins and her four children as nieces and nephews.9 
Residence*Gree and Mabel resided at 5148 N. Bleecker in Baldwin Park, Los Angeles Co., California, in 1955. Gree is a plumber. There are two separate addresses listed, the one shown here under Gree's entry, which may be his plumbing shop, and 3578 N. Baldwin Pk under Mabel's entry. Both have the 'h' indicting home. Perhaps they were living apart.10 
Death*Gree died on 8 January 1971 in San Bernardino Co., California, at age 69. Last place of residence was San Diego.2,3,4 
Burial*He was buried at Masonic Cemetery in Fallbrook, San Diego Co., California. Headstone photo available at Find A Grave.3
