Miss Clara Byrne, after a long illness, passed away yesterday. She was a member of a well known family of this city, was 76 years of age and a native of Rock Island, Ill.
Miss Byrne spent much of her life at Jackson, Mich., where the Byrne family was among the best, known and prominent in the community and church life.
Over 40 years ago she first came to Santa Cruz to be with her brother, the late George G. Byrne, who made this city his home. She returned to her Michigan home and later, with her mother and sisters, came to Santa Cruz and they resided here several years, then returned to Michigan, but the attraction of Santa Cruz caused them to return and for many years this city has been the family residence. Her home was on Rigg street.
She was a woman of the highest ideals, an earnest Christian and one who was devoted to the members of her family. She was a member of the First Congregational church of this city.
Miss Byrne is survived by two sisters and a biother. Miss Sue Byrne, a member of the faculty of the San Jose Siate Teachers college; Miss Josephine Byrne, also a teacher, and Walter C. Byrne, of the firm of Byrne Bros, of this city.
Funeral services will be held this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the Wessendorf Mortuary. The remains will be sent to Jackson, Mich, for burial in the family plot.Linked to (1) BYRNE, Clara A
