Father of Former City Atty. Byrnes Passes in Bay City
William H. Byrnes, one of the early day residents of Marin, and father of Charles W. Byrnes, city attorney of San Rafael about 24 years ago, passed away in San Francisco Sunday at 80 years of age.
Funeral services were held on Monday, and the remains were brought to San Rafael and interred in Mount Olivet Cemetery.
Mr. Byrnes, who was a retired real estate operator, was well known by many of the older residents of this county. His parents came here in 1847, the father being a sea captain.
Besides Charles Byrnes, there are three surviving sons: John W., William and Eugene Byrnes; and three daughters, Gertrude, Kathleen and Veronica Byrnes McCarthy.
