JOHN CONRAD was born in Grant County, Ky., in 1845, and is a son of Jacob
and Eliza (Renneckar) Conrad, of Virginia, but of German ancestry. John
Conrad was reared on a farm, and has followed farming as an occupation all
his life. In 1862 he entered the Confederate Army under Humphrey Marshall
but was transferred to Morgan's command. In 1863 he was captured at
Buffington Island, Ohio, and was held prisoner at Camp Douglas about
twenty-three months, with the exception of one month, when he was sent to
Richmond, Va., then Clayton, N.C., and was discharged at Washington, Ga.,
in May, 1865, when he returned to his labors on the farm. In June, 1877,
his father died, his mother having died in 1860. Mr. Conrad now owns
405 acres of valuable in Grant County, and is a member of the Baptist
Church. In 1871 he married Miss Zerilda Kinslaer, daughter of James and
Mary (Jamison) Kinslaer, of Harrison County. She was born May 31, 1851,

Lee, October 24, 1876; Guy, August 14, 1879; John S., August 11, 1882;
