Mrs. Mary S. Norris (nee Hailey)
Taken From the Putnam Record
November 17, 1898
Before the RECORD was put to press last week news reached us that Mrs. C. A. Norris, of Henry, formerly of Magnolia township, had passed from earth, but we were unable to get any further particulars in time for that issue. We copy from the Henry Times of November 15:
Mrs. Charles A. Norris, who has been very sick for several weeks, and whose death was not unexpected, passed quietly from earthly scenes at 6:40 a.m., Monday, Nov. 14, aged 49 years, 9 months, and 21 days. Mrs. Norris, whose maiden name was Mary S. Hailey, was born near Caledonia on the Ox Bow Prairie, October 23, 1849, and was married to Charles A. Norris, January 14, 1869. After their marriage, they lived for several years in Kansas, but later they returned to Illinois, and lived on the old homestead in the Oxbow, but two years ago Mr. Norris moved to Henry.
Three daughters, Mesdames William Mathis, Henry King, and Daniel Horrum, and one son, Willard, besides her husband, are left to mourn for her, as well as her aged mother, and one brother, Mr. Henry Hailey, of Peoria. Mrs. Norris was a stirring, energetic woman, and will be greatly missed by her husband and children. She was a good neighbor and kind parent, was loved by her children and respected by her friends.
The funeral services were held at the home Wednesday at 10 o'clock [text missing]. At the close of the services the remains were taken to the Caledonia cemetery, there to rest near the home of her youth and younger womanhood, and beside her father and friends who have gone before.
