The Obituary of James E. Norget

7 June 1843 - November 1914

From the Ontario County Journal, 15 November 1914

Canadice, N. Y. - The community was saddened on Sunday morning to learn that James E. Norget had passed away at 2:30 o’clock, after a brief illness of pneumonia. Mr. Norget had not been strong for some time, having suffered from hardening of the arteries, and that combined with low vitality caused his death, after a week’s illness, in spite of thorough treatment and loving care.

Mr. Norget was born on June 7, 1843, in Tunstead, Norfolk Co., England, and came with his family to this country in 1852 and settled in Richmond. He was one of eight children of John and Hannah Thirtle Norget, five of whom are still living.

On Nov. 27, 1877, he married Miss Emily E. Doolittle of Canadice, and had since made his home here.

Mr. Norget was known as a kind neighbor and friend by the people of this town and will be greatly missed, especially in the church, where he was a regular attendant. A large circle of friends mourn with the wife and three children, who are: Mrs. E. W. Hargrave, of Wyoming; Mrs. G. W. Deal of Allens Hill, and Dr. L. E. Norget of Henrietta. There are also six grandchildren, James, Edward and Francis Hargrave and Emily, Elsie and Asa Deuel; and five brothers, G. W. Norget of Maple Rapids, Mich., R. J. and C. J. Norget of Flint, Mich., and J. J. and E. J. Norgate of Richmond; all of whom were present at the funeral, which was held from the Canadice church on Tuesday. Rev. W. J. Brown assisted by Rev. R. C. Grames and Rev. R. E. Wilson officiated. The brothers and brothers-in-law acted as bearers. Interment was made in Canadice cemetery.

James E. Norget was buried in the Canadice Corners Cemetery in Canadice NY.

The Obituary of Emily E. Doolittle Norget

26 May 1851 - 27 July 1944

From the Livonia Gazette, 3 August 1944

Mrs. Emily Norget passed away Thursday, July 27, in Henrietta, at the home of her son, Dr. Lee Norget, with whom she had lived for the past nine years, since the death of her daughter, Mrs. Edith Deal.

Mrs. Norget was born in Canadice May 26, 1851. She was the oldest child of Wilson and Caroline Thorpe Doolittle and was married in November 1876 to James Norget. Their entire married life was spent in Canadice. After the death of her husband, about thirty years ago, she made her home with her children.

She was a member of the Canadice Methodist church, and also an honorary member of the ladies aid society, and taught the young ladies Sunday school class for many years.

Mrs. Norget enjoyed unusual good health for many of her years. She was a quiet, reserved lady and often came back to the church which she dearly loved.

Funeral services were held at the Canadice church, Saturday afternoon, with the Rev. Coyle officiating and the Rev. William Brown of Livonia offering prayer. Interment was made at Canadice cemetery.

Surviving besides the son, with whom she lived, is one daughter, Mrs. Edward Hargrave of Chula Vista, Calif; two sisters, Mrs. Cleora Blake of Naples and Mrs. Carrie West of Conesus; ten grandchildren and seven great grandchildren.
