GGrandfather Patrick Hare was born in 1828 in Ireland and married Mary Kennedy Hare. They emigrated through Canada to the US. Patrick and Mary had a son William born in Parishville,NY in 1864 and died 12/24/1948. William married Ella Hurley and had 7 children-Gabriel, William J,Francis, Theresa, Donald, Patrick and Robert. Gabriel died 3/17/1947,Patrick died in 1910, and Theresa died 10/6/1985 in Lake Placid. Would like to know more about William J OHare born 1893(Treasurer of the 1932 Olympic committee), Francis born 1897, Donald and Robert(1904). The family name varies from Hare, Hair, OHare to OHara. Any information would be appreciated.
