Norris Holcombe1

b. 4 March 1829, d. 6 January 1896
     Norris Holcombe was born on 4 March 1829 at CT.1 He was the son of Amasa Holcombe and Almira Rice.1,2 Norris Holcombe married Angeline Higley on 21 November 1855 at Canton, Hartford Co., CT; no issue.1 Norris Holcombe died on 6 January 1896 at his home on Blue Hills Ave., Bloomfield, Hartford Co., CT, at age 66.1 He was buried at Walnut Grove Cemetery, Meriden, New Haven Co., CT.

Norris was listed in Greer's History in 1888 as a vice president of the Hartford County Agricultural Society.

From the Courant, 7 January 1896:

Norris Holcomb the well-known farmer, cattle dealer and horseman, died at his home on Blue Hills Avenue, Bloomfield, at an early hour yesterday morning after an illness of only two days, aged 66 years. He had been in his usual health and attending to business up to Saturday morning, when he was stricken with kidney and bowel trouble, and sank rapidly. He was attended by Dr. Curtis, a life-long friend.

Mr. Holcomb has been a familiar figure at the fairs and trotting meetings for many years, and few men were better known to New Englanders. His Interest in horses began early in life, and he often presided as starting judge. He had an extended acquaintance with horsemen all over the country, numbering among his friends the Bonners, Shepards, and many others who journeyed to Charter Oak in its halcyon days. He had owned several good horses, among them the grand but erratic Lucy, 2:181/2, whose history is familiar to students of horse matters. He purchased her when there were fewer phenomenal trotters than now, from Mr. Dillut of Philadelphia, for what in those days was an extravagant price--$16,000. After racing her and winning a considerable sum with her, he re-sold her to her former owner for the then princely sum of $16,000. Mr. Holcomb never tired of telling of his various adventures with her and others of his horses, and he was always sure of attentive listeners. Among other well-known totters that he owned in later years was Stonewall Jackson, Old Man's Mare and Nelly Holcomb. Although he practically retired from racing matters some years ago his interest in and love for horses had never waned, and it needed only a word to warm him up to a pleasant reminiscence.

Mr. Holcomb was for years proprietor of the old Adams House on Albany Avenue. Of late years he had given his attention to farming as well as the buying and selling of fat cattle. He had few superiors as a judge of that class of stock.

The Holcomb home has been one of the most hospitable in all the state, especially in these latter years, with Mr. and Mrs. Holcomb striving to make it pleasant and enjoyable for guests.

Mr. Holcomb was the son of Amasa Holcomb, who left a large family. He leaves a wife, who was Miss Angelica Higley. They have no children. A brother, Samuel Holcomb of Meriden, also survives him.

The funeral will be held at the residence on Blue Hills Avenue Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. The body will be taken to Meriden on the 12:25 train for burial.
