Retired, widowed (wife had been Leona FORGETT), father Noel FORGETT (b.France), mother Nancy STONE (b.VA).
Joseph Forgett was a cement contractor and installed many of the sidewalks in the area north of Santa Rosa's College Avenue during the early 1900s. His problems during the latter part of his life stemmed from his addiction to cocaine. Jeff Elliott discusses this in great detail in his Comstock House blog. No reason has been found for the two-week delay between death and burial.
Joseph's brother, Fred Forgett, was a Santa Rosa City Councilman (1908-1912), resigning to accept the position of Street Commissioner, which he held at the time of his death in 1913. His influence and that of his mother were unfortunately unable to keep Joseph Forgett from a life of petty crime and continual stints in the county jail.
