NEWS OF DEATH OF NORMAN SCOVE, THIS CITY, AT SANTA ANA, CA IS A GREAT SHOCK

Former Resident who had been in California for Two Years Died Suddenly Saturday When Health Was Thought to be Near
Restoration. Burial There Today

News of the death of Norman O. Scove, formerly of this city, who passed away at Santa Ana, Cal., Saturday, came as a great shock to relatives and friends in the city when the message was received and awakens the sympathy of the community for the bereaved widow and little son left to mourn him. The funeral was held at Santa Ana today. It is not known whether the body will later be brought to this city.

The message carrying the announcement of Mr. Scove's death was entirely unexpected, as recent letters had led to the hope that his health was much improved. In a letter only a few days ago to relatives Mr. Scove spoke of his plans for the future. Mr. Scove was to engage in the citrus growing industry in California, his property here having recently been disposed of with that in view, and the family was planning to complete arrangements to make their permanent home in Santa Ana.

Mr. and Mrs. August Schuette, parents of Mrs. Scove left for California Sunday afternoon in response to the message announcing the death of Mr. Scove. The message gave no details but it is thought that death was very sudden. Mr. and Mrs. Schuette will not reach Santa Ana in time for the funeral but will probably remain with Mrs. Scove until she is able to return with them to this city. Mr. and Mrs. Scove had made their home in California for two years.

Mr. Scove was born in this city May 5, 1879, and attended the schools here. As a young man he entered the employ of Manitowoc Shipbuilding company and at the time of his resignation two years ago, when his health demanded a change of climate, he held the responsible position of engineer of the hulls department of the big company. He was widely known and was universally respected and esteemed in social and business circles of the city. Mr. Scove was married to Miss Irma Schuette, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. August Schuette, 11 years ago. One son, Robert, with Mrs. Scove, survive. One sister, Mrs. Berlin Hall, of this city, and a sister in New York also survive. A brother, George Scove, died recently.

Mr. and Mrs. Schuette visited with Mr. and Mrs. Scove during the winter.

This is a bio. sketch from "History of Manitowoc County Wisconsin",
by Dr. L. Falge, 1911-1912, v.2, p.509-510.

G. N. Scove, who is an engineer of the hull department of the Manitowoc Dry Dock Company, was born in Manitowoc, May 5, 1879, and is a son of Hans and Lena (Burger) Scove. The father came to Manitowoc about 1860 and engaged in the shipbuilding business, he being one of the pioneer
shipbuilders of Manitowoc. He was a member of the firm of Hansen & Scove, who built many of the early schooners and steamers and were instrumental in developing the shipbuilding industry of Manitowoc and Two Rivers. During
the Civil war Mr. Scove assisted in building the fleet which was sent down the Mississippi river and took part in the capture of Vicksburg. Mr. Scove’s death occurred in 1888 when he was fifty-two years of age. His wife passed away in 1881 when she was thirty-five years of age. She is buried at Two Rivers cemetery. The father is interred at Evergreen cemetery.

G. N. Scove acquired his early education in the public schools and high schools of Manitowoc, and at the age of seventeen left the high school. He immediately accepted employment with the Northern Grain Company as assistant superintendent and remained with them for seven years. He was afterward traveling salesman for the Northern Grain Company and also for the Manufacturers Appraisal Company of New York. After he had been thus employed for two years he accepted a position with the Manitowoc Dry Dock Company and is now chief draftsman of the concern. He acquired his
knowledge of drafting during the time he was traveling for the two concerns. He early learned the fact that in self-development lies strength, and he tested his own powers by actual work, doing faithfully and efficiently every task which was assigned to him or which seemed to him a stepping stone in the path of progression, thus working his way upward to larger responsibilities and more important duties. His advancement has resulted through the development of his talents and powers, and the position of distinction and trust which he holds today is the logical outcome of his own efforts. In Manitowoc, on the 5th of July, 1906, Mr. Scove was married to Miss Irma Schuette, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. August Schuette, the former of the firm of Schuette Brothers. Mr. Scove is a progressive republican and holds membership in the blue lodge of the Masons. He is also a member of the Country Club. Those who meet him in social relations respond readily to his genial and cordial manner, and thus his circle of friends is constantly enlarging.

Gerald married Irma Schuette on 5 Jul 1906 in Manitowoc, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, USA. Irma (daughter of August Schuette and Hedwig "Hattie" Hottelmann) was born on 23 Nov 1879 in Manitowoc, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, USA; died on 20 Jul 1970 in Santa Ana, Orange, California, USA; was buried in Santa Ana, Orange, California, USA.

Notes:

Jasper and Hans shipyard
Two Danes, Jasper Hanson and Hans M. Scove, established a shipyard in Manitowoc and built a number of vessels in the period 1870-1889, but the carpenters and mechanics who were building these vessels were nearly all Norwegians. One of these was Julius Johnson, foreman and expert spar
maker in the Hanson and Scove shipyard. He was a graduate of a navigation school in Norway, and after the panic of 1873 had created hard times for the shipbuilding industry, he was placed in command of the schooner "John Schuette," which he sailed for his employers, taking a cargo of deals
from Manitowoc to England. He sailed the vessel back to Wilmington, North Carolina, where he left it, and then returned to Manitowoc. As told elsewhere Captain William Lund of Milwaukee went to Wilmington and took charge of the vessel after Captain Johnson?s return. After sailing it to Riga, Russia, and other places, he finally brought it back to Chicago in September, 1879. The vessel was built by Hanson and Scove at their shipyard at Two Rivers, Wisconsin, where they were located before 1873. Another Norwegian in the employ of Hanson and Scove was Captain Christen Olson, born at Grimstad, Norway, in 1830. He came to America in 1854, settling in Manitowoc, where he served as shipbuilder, and later as superintendent in the Hanson and Scove shipyard. He was part owner of the schooner "Industry" and of the scow "Success". He married Miss
Maren Findahl, a sister of Mrs. O. Torrison of Manitowoc.

Louis Schuette, vice president of the Manitowoc Savings Bank and well known in financial circles of Manitowoc county, is a member of one of the old and honored families of this section. His grandparents, John and Katherine
(Schade) Schuette, natives of Oldenburg, Germany, came to the United States in 1848 and settled in Manitowoc, where John Schuette carried on a grocery business until his death. He and his wife had seven children: Gesine, the
widow of Gus Bloquelle, a resident of Manitowoc; Henry, deceased, who was engaged in the grocery business; John, the father of Louis; Martha, the widow of Eugene Alter; and Fred, August and George, merchants of Manitowoc.
John Schuette, father of Louis, was born September 25, 1837, in Oldenburg, Germany, and after the death of his father formed a partnership with his brother, Henry, and engaged in the grocery business. He sold his interests,
however, in 1884, and organized the Manitowoc Savings Bank. The building at the corner of Eighth and Jay streets, which had formerly been used for the
same purpose, was purchased and the bank established under the state laws, the capital being fifty thousand dollars, and the first officers being as follows: John Schuette, president; C. E. Esterbrook, vice president; Joseph
Staehle, cashier. At the present time the officials are: John Schuette, president; Louis Schuette, vice president; Ed Schuette, cashier; Henry Detzen, assistant cashier. John Schuette was also the owner of the second flour mill in Manitowoc, which he still operates; had the government
contract in 1867 and 1868 for the building of the harbor at this point; is a stockholder in the Eastern Wisconsin Trustee Company; and president of the Manitowoc Electric Light Company. He has served as alderman and mayor of Manitowoc, and in 1875 and 1876 was sent by his fellow townsmen to the state senate. He married Rosa Stauss, and they had five children: Louis and Edwin, associated with their father in business; Gesine, residing at home with her parents; Lillie, who married Dr. Walker, of Menominee, Michigan; and Rosa, who married Dr. Babcock, of Milwaukee. The reputation of the Manitowoc Savings Bank is of the best, and all of its officials are men of known integrity.

John married Catherina Maria "Catherine" Schade on 6 Jul 1830 in , , , Germany. Catherina was born on 23 May 1811 in Oldenburg, Stadt Oldenburg, Niedersachsen, Germany; died on 5 Jan 1899 in Manitowoc, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, USA; was buried in Manitowoc, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, USA.
