Wife of D.F. Conner
The Conner homeplace was in North Carolina in the Smokies, a 300-acre farm that stretched up and down the banks of the Oconaluftee river Dock's father, Rev. William Henry Conner bought the Luftee farm from the Collins family before the Civil war. Henry moved to the farm during the war, when Dock was eight years old. Dock married Margret Emeline York at Smokemont on April 9, 1876.]
The Conner family started moving to Tennessee in 1937, first to Gatlinburg and then to the Pigeon Forge farm Dock had bought 11 years earlier. He lived his last years here with the family of his son Charles W "Charlie.". After Dock died in 1948, Pigeon Forge lots with 100 feet of road frontage and 150 feet deep were selling for more than he had paid for 115 acres.
