1934 · Alcatraz Island Becomes Federal Penitentiary

Alcatraz Island officially became Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary on August 11, 1934. The island is situated in the middle of frigid water and strong currents of the San Francisco Bay, which deemed it virtually inescapable. Alcatraz became known as the toughest prison in America and was seen as a “last resort prison.” Therefore, Alcatraz housed some of America’s most notorious prisoners such as Al Capone and Robert Franklin Stroud. Due to the exorbitant cost of running the prison, and the deterioration of the buildings due to salt spray, Alcatraz Island closed as a penitentiary on March 21, 1963.

United States military forces play a leading role against North Korean and Chinese troops in Korean War.

Name Meaning

Irish (Down and Antrim) and Scottish: from Gaelic Ó hAnnaigh ‘descendant of Annach’, a personal name of uncertain origin, or from Gaelic Ó hÉanna ‘descendant of Éanna’, also unexplained but well attested. See also Hannan . It has been suggested that the name may also derive from Sheanaigh, a genitive case form of the Gaelic personal name Seanach, but this is untenable. This was one of very few ‘Ó’ surnames to be used in Scotland, a phenomenon which was confined to the Galloway and Carrick region.

English: habitational name from Hannah (Lincolnshire), possibly derived from the Old English personal name Hana or Old English hana ‘cock’ + ēg ‘island’.

English: sometimes in East Anglia a variant of Henney .
