Frederick D. Conner was born in Perry Co., Indiana, Feb. 17, 1841, and became 
a resident of Floyd county, Ind., in 1870. His parents, no longer numbered 
among the living, were Torrance and Nancy (Tate) Conner. He was united in 
marriage, Oct. 3, 1871, in New Albany, Oct. 3, 1871, to Harriet Sackett who 
was born in New Albany, Dec. 5, 1850. Her father, Charles Sackett is still 
living, age 82 years but her mother, whose maiden name was Joyce Gresham is 
dec.  To this union two children were born: Edna C. and Alma. Comrade Conner 
was a teacher and farmer by occupation at the time of his enlistment which 
occurred August, 1862, at Louisville, Ky., for three years. He was 21 years 
old when he entered the Federal army, as Corp. of Co. K, 34th Ky. V.I.  
August, 1863, he entered hospital at Glasgow, Ky., until October, when he was 
transferred to Louisville and thence to New Albany, for five months and later 
to Madison hospital where he was treated for chronic ophthalmy results of 
typhoid fever, until honorably discharged June 6, 1865, by G.O. of W.D.  
October 1864, he was furloughed for thirty days, at the expiration of which he 
returned to Madison hospital. He was detailed as commissary Serg. of 
subsistence until June, 1863; was detailed as chief clerk for Gen. Judah until 
his death and again as chief clerk in Madison hospital under Surgeon Grant, 
serving as such when discharged. His brother, John served in Co. E, 49th Ind.

Additional Comments:
I came across the photocopied pages in a file at the public
library in New Albany. I have never been able to locate an
original copy of the book.
