On a recent visit to Scranton, I requested a copy of the will of my great-grandfather, Patrick J. Mc Namara. (I discovered that wills from the late 1800s and early 1900s are now stored off-site, much to my disappointment!) I recently received the copy and unfortunately, the will is for Patrick F. Mc Namara. I thought I'd share the info as he might belong to someone on the list: Patrick F. Mc Namara died in the City of Scranton on Wednesday, April 14, 1909, at 11:30 a.m. His will was written July 10, 1907. Mr. Mc Namara's wife, Mary A. Mc Namara, was the executrix of the estate, which included personal property valued at $3,500 and no real estate. Mr. Mc Namara left the bulk of his estate to his widow. He left the sum of $100 each to his sisters Mary of Enniscrone, County Sligo, Ireland, Kate of New York City, and Theresa Hernandez of New York City; his brother Joseph of Scranton; and his nephew Frank, Will was signed July 10, 1907. I'd be happy to provide a copy of the will. Maureen Kilcullen Towson, Md.
