Mrs. William J. Corcoran
At her home, corner of Market and Darlington streets, at noon yesterday, Hannah 
A., widow of William J. Corcoran, died, aged 64 years.  She had been in her 
usual good health, and was suddenly stricken with heart trouble, her death 
coming instantly.

She was a daughter of John and Bridget Barrett, and was born in West Bradford 
Township, but spent practically all of her life in this place.  She married 
William J. Corcoran, a well known business man of this borough, whose death 
occurred eight years ago.  A member of St. Agnes’ Church and of the Sodality 
and Altar Society, she took much interest in the work of that church.  She was 
a woman of kind heart, enjoying the esteem of many friends, who were shocked to 
learn of her sudden death.  She is survived by one daughter, Esther, at home.  
There are two brothers, James and John Barrett, both of Ardmore.  Mrs. Martin 
C. Welsh, of North Darlington Street, is a sister.
