VILLE & DALE

By Martha (Tyler) and Floyd John

For over 95 years, everyone who travels on [3] from Saranac Lake toward Plattsburgh passes Norman's General Store in Bloomingdale. The store was built by Mathias B. (Matt) Norman and a first cousin, [Franklin Norman], in 1904. Around 1909 Matt bought B.F.'s share and the business has been operated by members of Matt's family since then. Matt and his wife, [O'Malley], had one daughter, Mildred, who married [Curran]. They continued to operate the store after Matt passed away. One of their daughters, Norma married a Saranac Lake resident, [Niederbuhl], who was a Navy veteran of WWII and a graduate of the MBA program at Dartmouth College. Now Art and Norma's son, Art, is continuing the family business.
