| 5078 | from "The Rochester Union and Advertiser", 25 Aug 1880 (Fultonhistory.com) The late illness and sudden demise of J.M. Emerson of Riga is generally known to his former acquaintances and friends. His death occurred on Sunday morning, the 8th of August last. He had been prostrated for about a month with an attach of pleurisy, but was supposed to be in a convalescent state, when a sudden congestion in the left lung terminated his life. An autopsy was performed by Drs. Whitbeck, Townsend and Craig, and the above conclusion reached by the physicians. The deceased was in the 65th year of his age, and was born and had always resided in the town of Riga. He was well and widely known in his own section, and respected for his uprightness and integrity. He was a man of liberal and enlightened views. Reared and experienced as a practical farmer, he passed a contented and useful life in his vocation and left behind him a substantial monument to the capacity and industry, one of the best cultivated and best improved farms in the town. At the time of his decease, he was Town Assessor, a position which he had held for nearly fifteen years, and which his fellow townsmen were well pleased to award him, for his practical judgment in matters relating to the value of farming properties was conceded to be unexcelled. His marriage occurred in October, 1841, with Miss Emily Warren, who now survives him, together with a son and daughter. The deceased was an enthusiastic musician, and many of the older residents of this and the adjoining counties of Genesee and Orleans will well remember his efforts in his younger day for the improvement and culture in singing. The Rev. E. Hathaway of Middleboro officiated at the funeral service. A large concourse of people followed the remains to the their final resting place, and all felt the warmest sympathy for the unhappy wife, son and daughter, who justly mourned at the unfortunate stroke which had thus cut short a life in the full vigor of maturity and manhood. | Emerson, Joseph Mark “Mark” (I1323)
