Aged Veteran Passes Away.
John P. Connor, a veteran of the civil war, and an old and greatly respected citizen of Taylor county, died at his home in Conway at 1 o'clock Monday afternoon, aged 68 years, 10 months and 7 days.
The following obituary notice we take from the Conway Record:
“In 1866 he was married to Mary C. [yrena] Lathrop, who still survives him. To this union were born eight children, all of whom have been privileged to be at the bedside of their beloved father during his late sickness to administer to his wants and ease his bed of pain as best they could. The children are: Harry Connor and Mrs. Maggie Pearson, of Omaha; Robert and Grant, of Davenport, and Charles, Daisy, Nellie and Hattie, of this city.
Besides his family he leaves two sisters, Mrs. Stewart Gilmore, of Davenport, Iowa, and Mrs. R. E. Grace, of Avoca, Iowa, both of whom were unable to attend the funeral of their brother.
"He was an honored member of Co. C, 20th Iowa Infantry, serving his country faithfully from 1862 until the close of the war.
"He was a kind and devoted husband and father, and sorrow in the home caused by his death is deep and lasting.
"Funeral services were conducted yesterday (Wednesday) at 10:30 at the Methodist church by Rev. Coe, after which the remains were conveyed to the Conway cemetery, where they were laid to await the final summons."
