Biography
Alice was born January 25, 1847 in Hamilton County, Indiana, United States. She was the daughter of Hiram Finch and Maria Passwater. She passed away March 25, 1878 (age 31) in Hamilton County, Indiana, United States.
Married John Coggswell Conner (grandson of John Conner) on Nov. 24, 1864 in Hamilton County, IN. John C. Conner was born October 14, 1842 in Noblesville, Hamilton County, Indiana. He attended Noblesville public schools, Wabash College in Crawfordsville, Indiana and was admitted to the United States Navel Academy, Annapolis, MD.
John C. Conner was an officer in the 63rd Indiana Volunteer Infantry Co. F from Sept. 3, 1862 until being honorably discharged as first lieutenant on June 20, 1864.
After being commissioned a captain in the forty-first Regiment, United States Infantry on July 28, 1866, John and Alice Finch Conner relocated to Texas where John was elected as a Democrat to Congress and served in the Forty- first and Forty- second sessions. John C. Conner was the youngest man in congress at the time.
Due to failing health, John C. Connor was not a candidate for re-nomination in 1872. He died in Washington D.C. on December 10, 1873 before finishing his second term (age 31).
Per census records, Alice (Finch) Conner and daughter Julia were living with Alice's father Hiram Finch in Noblesville, Hamilton County, Indiana as of June 1870 (before John C. Conner's death). Perhaps Alice did not travel with her husband to Washington D.C.(?)
She and John are buried in Riverside Cemetery (Old Cemetery), Noblesville, Hamilton County, Indiana.
