When the towns of old Wyandotte, Armourdale and old Kansas City, Kansas, were consolidated in 1886 into a city, Mr. Hannan was elected the first mayor for a term of one year. he was re-elected for a two-year term, was out of office one term and was again re-elected for two years. Mr. Hannan died twelve years ago.
Mrs. Hannan was interested in all affairs of the city. In the early days she worked for the furtherance of a movement to teach the Indians of the county to farm, later turning her attention to club work and efforts to obtain parks on the Kansas side.
Besides Mrs. Boyle, Mrs. Hannan leaves another daughter, Mrs. D. Truesdale; and two sons, Gerald F. and F. D.L. Hannan, all of this city.
