I am looking for the parents of John CONNER b 30 may 1861, d 5 Oct 1932. He married Sarah Elizabeth CUSHARD? b 4 Sep 1875 d 4 Sep 1939. This was John's second marriage. I do not have any information about his first wife. From his first marriage he had three known children: Minnie, Goble and Johnny. From his second marriage to Sarah he had four known children: Myrtle, David, Tina Mae and Woodrow (who may have been a twin to an unknown child). Family stories say that the family was originally from Warsaw, Indiana. However, John, his second wife, and his seven children resided in Northern Kentucky around the Bullitt Co. area. Anyone with information on this family is asked to email my mother at FrancesGarland@webtv.com. John CONNERwas her grandfather.

Three first cousins, children of Adah ADAMS, who died 1850/1857 place unknown, apparently were there in the same time period. In 1862 Moses L. ADAMS enlisted in the 12th F. Rachel Maria ADAMS m 1854 Salathiel LIGHTNER, who in 1862 also joined the 74th K. Did sister Sarah Elizabeth ADAMS (b.c. 1836 OH) m 1861 Robert TALMAGE? By 1857 their father Munger ADAMS was living in Marshall Co, where he had remarried. Did their mother die in Kosciusko County?

The second meeting of the "Adams Reunion Association - descendants of Gilbert Adams" was held in 1919 at the home of Alex G. ADAMS near Riddinger Lake (Aug 23). Alex was "the las member of the 3rd generation still alive". The first meeting in 1916, held in Troy, was billed as "Descendants of Robert and Munger Adams, Early Settlers of this Section".
