Death Comes to George W Brackenridge in San Antonio
George W Brackenridge, longtime financier and benefactor to education and public works, died Tuesday at his home in San Antonio. Born January 4, 183?, he built a career spanning the Treasury during the Civil War era, later guiding the San Antonio National Bank and the city water system. He funded schools, medical education, and university programs, and remained active in civic affairs well into old age before retiring from daily management a few years ago. His funeral will be held at 4 p.m. Wednesday from his residence with burial in the family plot at the City Cemetery.
