Biography

Elijah Harvey McGehee was born on June 11, 1887, in Little Springs, Mississippi.[1][2] He was the son and ninth child of John Hiram McGehee, a Mississippi state senator, and Alice Katherine (Ford) McGehee.[1] McGehee attended the schools of Little Springs, graduating from its high school in 1906.[1] He graduated from the University of Mississippi School of Law and began practicing law in Monticello, Mississippi, in 1909.[1] He served in the Mississippi Senate, representing the state's 8th senatorial district as a Democrat, from 1916 to 1920.[1] In October 1937, Governor Hugh L. White appointed McGehee to a seat on the Supreme Court of Mississippi vacated by the sudden death of Justice William Henry Cook.[3][4] He later served as chief justice of the court.[5] After retiring in 1964, McGehee died on November 2, 1965, in Yazoo City.[4]
