McConnell estate settled after years in Mercer County probate
In Mercer County court on December 12, the estate of J Knox McConnell, former president of FNB Keystone, was finally settled. The 1993 will left a small sum to associate Billie Cherry and the bulk to Waynesburg College, a plan distorted by Church and Cherry during probate and the bank’s collapse. Holroyd, the fiduciary commissioner, distributed assets with Waynesburg receiving $500,000 while Cherry received nothing further. the case ends with the estate closed.
