I may have confused Isaac with his grandson as to which was preacher. (I can't find the evidence I had of the 'preacher', Isaac. But I think it was oral history from Ruby Conn Ficklin in 1992.)
I know you sent me a long email last March. I finally found it tonight and can't determine if I ever answered you. If I didn't I apologize.
As to James Pierce, I too believe that Nancy E. Pierce was of this family. Two bits of info--but only circumstantial evidence: (you probably have this)
After James M. Conn and Nancy Pierce married In McLennan Co. in 1869 they had one child in Texas. (Didn't see them in them in the 1870 census.) I know they returned to Cherokee Co. GA on the death of James father Samuel Conn in 1873. They had 4 more children while in GA. By 1880 James and Nancy had returned to Texas, but this time they were in the census for Upshur County in East Texas. By 1900 James M. Conn was in Indian Terr., Chickasaw Nation as were your Pinckney and our William (W.H. Conn).
I also suspect that James Pierce's 3 youngest children (orphans?) were by 1880 living with Mary Conn in McLennan County(1880 census). This Mary may be the younger sister (b. 1835) of Isaac Conn (b. 1818). She was living with William and Mary Conn (Isaac's parents)as shown in 1860 census for Sevier County AR. The evidence for this relationahip is in the 1900 census for Pottowatomie Co. OK. where Mary shows up as the aunt of your Pinckney (you probably have this).
I don't believe I ever posted your info to my site. Now I have even more from Joy Hunt a direct desc of Samuel Conn and she has a lot on James Madison Conn.
And yet I cannot find proof that our William Conn (b. 1795) is the brother of Samuel. I have collected a lot of theoretical Conn data from NC and SC. No real proof.
If I did not answer your previous questions let me know. Did I mention that Ruby is the daughter of Luevina Ella Coleman and Sanders Conn (b 1881--son of W.H. Conn and Martha Leppard). I like to think Luevena Ella Coleman was somehow related to Bird Coleman but I don't know how. Her father was Frances Marion Coleman b. 1853 GA).
Ella and Sanders are also buried at Vista Cemetery in Pottowatomie County. I have pictures of the tombstones. You probably saw the portrait of Sanders and Luevina Ella at my site.
