Bartolo McIntyre death 1935

Bartolo McIntyre, the son of Bartholomew McIntyre and Conception Ramos was born in San Francisco on August 18, 1890.  He married Angelina Uriarte around 1912, very likely in San Salvador.  They had two sons: Bartolo (Barclay) and Stanley, both born in San Salvador in the mid-1910s.

Roberto Morales McIntyre, nephew of Bartolo (1890-1935), told the story of Bartolo committing suicide by jumping in front of a San Francisco commuter train.  This information has not been verified.

I have been unable to locate a death certificate for Bartolo McIntyre (1890-1935) but  recently located a Funeral Record for him that states he died on January 13, 1935 due to "shock and hemorrhage following fracture of skull."  An inquest was pending and an autopsy was conducted.  This would account for why there was not a "normal" death certificate.

Bartolo was buried in Holy Cross Cemetery on January 16, 1935 following a requiem Mass at St. Emydius Church, San Francisco.

Francisca McIntire Requests an Emergency US Passport, 1917

1917 Passport Photo

QUESTION: Why did Francisca need an "emergency or departmental" passport in January,1917?

Francisca McIntire (1888-1985), daughter of Bartolo/Bartholomew McIntire/McIntyre (c1854-1924), applied for an emergency US passport in San Salvador so she could accompany her father, Bartolo, back to the United States.

In her application she states she was born in San Francisco, California on August 19, 1888. Additionally, she states her father, "Bartley" was born in Ireland and left from the port of Liverpool in 1858 to immigrate to the U.S. She states Bartley lived in San Francisco from 1858 to 1908. She says Bartley was naturalized as a US citizen on January 15, 1864 before the County Court of San Francisco.

In 1917 he was residing in San Salvador for the purpose of business.

Francisca is described as 28 years old, 5 feet, 4 inches tall with blue eyes and brown hair.  Her complexion was fair, with a high forehead, oval chin and oval face.

The above attached letter to the US Passport Application, is very difficult to read, but most of the words can be made out:

    The Secretary of State

On January 27, 2014, several descendants and relatives of Patrick and Bridget (Stevens) McIntyre gathered in San Francisco and made a pilgrimage to the cross streets.  The intersection is located about three blocks from Ghiradelli Square.  Of note, one of the building which housed the Pioneer Woolen Factory, where Patrick worked, is now a showroom for all forms of delectable Ghiradelli chocolates.

Patrick and Edward McIntyre/McIntire - San Francisco 1861-1883

The entries have been transcribed from the San Francisco City Directory, compiled by Henry G. Langley and cover the years 1861-1884.  Patrick McIntyre (c1831-1901) homesteaded in Oregon in 1880 and does not appear in the San Francisco directories after 1880.  Of note are other individuals (in various colors) who appear to live at the same/similar addresses as Patrick or are otherwise connected.  The Directory dates often reflect the locations of individuals from the prior year as it took several months to compile directories in the 19th century. The color codes are explained at the bottom of the page.

Of particular note: No Edward McIntyre living in San Francisco can be located in the 1860 U. S. Federal Census. Additionally, no Edward and Ann(ie) McIntyre can be located living in the US in 1860.  No 1860 San Francisco City Directory has been located.
