FAMILY HISTORIES OF
PERSONS BURIED AT
GREENWOOD CEMETERY
CLARKSVILLE, TENNESSEE

JAMES HANRATTY

l.Hanratty, a tobacconist, came from Ireland the same year as John Conroy (1859) to C’ville. In fact, his dau married Conroy’s son, John.

2. But we are not going to talk about Hanratty today for 2 reasons:
    A. Hanratty loved Ireland so much he never took out U.S. citizenship.
    B. Hanratty had the audacity to blatantly side with the yankees in C’ville, TN during the entire occupation by the Feds.

3. A few years ago when one of his great, great grandsons was visiting Ireland and his Conroy kin, he REFUSED to even go by Hanratty’s birthplace!
