General Notes: Husband - Robert B. Conn


He was reared on the old home farm in Washington Township, Butler County, PA, and attended the public schools for a brief period. At the early age of twelve years he began learning the trade of yarn making in the Hopewell Woolen Mills in Washington Township. He worked at that business some years, a part of the time at Craigville, and also for W. L. Keefer in Venango County. He continued at this occupation for some years after his marriage, and then in 1872 moved to a farm, which he owned in conjunction with his wife, who was born and reared on the place.
He was a stanch Repub­lican in politics, and served as consta­ble, tax collector, school director and asses­sor. He was school director for a period of eight years, and was tax collector from 1890 until 1900, proving a most capable offi­cer. Religiously, he was a member of the Lutheran Church.
