Green Isle
From the Record:
Again we are called upon to chronicle the death of another old pioneer of
Green Isle township, John Connors, Sr., who passed away at his home at two
o’clock P.M., Monday, after an illness of four weeks with paralysis.  Aged
77 years.
Mr. Connors was a native of Ireland, born in County Carry, and came to
America in the early days.  He first settled in Superior, Wis., when he
married and then came to Sibley county and settled on the Mack farm.  Later
he bought the present homestead.
Deceased leaves to mourn his untimely demise, a wife and five sons, John,
Patrick, Michael, Dennis and Con.
The funeral was held Wednesday morning at St. Brendan’s church and was
attended by a large concourse of friends to pay their last tribute of
respect.  Solemn high mass was celebrated by Rev. Fr. Doyle, Fev. Fr. Rant
of Arlington and Fev. Fr. Bryne of Glencoe.
The remains were laid to rest in the family lot in St. Brendan’s cemetery.
 The pall bearers were:  Jas. Mulligan, J. W. Kelly, Jos. Hunt, Michael
Coleman, Michael Kienan and John O’Meara.
