Whoever wrote this. Please help me correct this. This really passes me off. My great ancestor is rolling hlin his grave. How many Irish were on the north side. From the sounds very few were respected enough to be allowed ownership of anything let alone has mass business relationships with the communities. Providing jobs and food. The irish were constantly persecuted. Yet conner had a respected establishment in the heart of slaveholding English men. Conner was open outspoken abolitionists. Whose family left to georgia. And as they saw the plantations moved to gibson indiana and later fought in the civil war for the north. refused to have slaves in his shipping inventory. They even try and claim John adams didn't have slaves yet slaves are listed in his household. John adams and hewes conspired against him. And even reveres brother in law benjamin hitchborn had his back. Only one claim was ever made against him where he was sued for stolen inventory where he had even greater loss. and then ask why did John adams sign as a witness for the reviept of land in geogia from Daniel conner and his wife Martha? The son of Charles Conner. For his role in the revolution.
