A History of Kentucky Baptists, From 1769 to 1885, by J. H. Spencer, 1886, Reprinted by Church History and Archives, 1976, Lafayette, TN. Licking Association. Harrison County. JOHN CONNER was one of the early preachers in Licking Association. He probably began his ministry in Virginia, when he moved to Kentucky, and settled in Harrison county, not far from 1811. He gave his membership to Mill Creek church of which he remained a member, and probably the pastor, the remainder of his days on earth. He preached the introductory sermon before the Association, in 1812, and appears to have been well esteemed by that body. He died, at a good old age, Sept. 26, 1824.
