Minerva Apperson, born about 1824, according to various US Censuses, a was daughter of John and Celia Mitchell Apperson. In Miller Co., MO, on September 4, 1839, when only about 15 years old, she was married to John Conner. He was born in Missouri in about 1823, also according to US Census records. The one for 1850 for Jasper Co., MO, listed John and Minerva Conner living in Dwelling 536 and Cely Apperson, her mother, living in Dwelling 537. It appears John Conner died after 1856, the year his last child, George B. Conner, was born, and the taking of the US Census of 1860 for Mineral Twp, Baker's Grove Post Office, Dwelling 169, which showed the family as follows:

Minera Conner, age 36, bn MO
William M. Conner, age 20, bn MO, farm laborer
James P. Conner, age 18, bn MO, farm laborer
Thomas M. Conner, age 15, bn MO, farm laborer
Louis B. Conner, age 9, bn MO
Louisant C. Conner age 11, bn MO
George B. Conner, age 4, bn MO.

During the Civil War, Minerva A. Conner and Eliza Apperson, the wife of Charles M. Apperson, went to Arkansas and from there to Texas where they nursed soldiers in Confederate Hospitals.

Minerva Conner in 1880 was living with her son, Louisant, shown as Losant on the US Census of that year. With them were Alice Conner and William S. Conner, children of her son, William M. Conner, who was killed in the Civil War and Ida Belle Conner, daughter of her son James P. Conner, who died.
