In 1850 John B. McConnell was counted twice. Once in Xenia Twp, Greene Co., OH and then again in Kenton, Hardin Co., OH.
Probably his parents were in the process of moving and John B. and Robert A. were staying with relatives while the others moved.
John B. McConnell's Civil War Record:
Enlistment Date: 13 Jun 1863
Side Served: Union
State Served: Ohio
Service Record: Enlisted as a Private on 13 June 1863 at the age of 19.
Enlisted in Company L, 2nd Heavy Artillery Regiment Ohio on 7 Sep 1863.
Mustered Out Company L, 2nd Heavy Artillery Regiment Ohio on 23 Aug 1865 at Nashville, TN.
John B. McConnell, one of the retired citizens of Springfield,
was at one time a very active figure in the business life of Clark County,
and earned then the respect and confidence of all with whom he was
associated, which he still holds. He was born in Xenia, Ohio, December
9, 1844, a son of Robert and Anna (Bruscup) McConnell, natives of
Virginia and Maryland, respectively. Robert F. McConnell lost his
father when he was young, sometime between 1827 and 1830, and his
widowed mother came from Virginia to Xenia, Ohio, bringing her
children with her. They came to Xenia in 1830.
When he was five and one-half years old John F. McConnell was
taken to Kenton, Ohio, by his parents, and there he was living when
he enlisted, June 13, 1853, in Company L, Second Ohio Heavy Artillery,
and was first sent to Frankfort, Kentucky, and later to different points
in Tennessee. His regiment was given the work of keeping the road
open for those actively engaged in fighting, and it participated in the
battle at Cleveland, Tennessee, following which the command was rushed
to the front at the engagement at Athens, Tennessee, but did not arrive
until the battle was over. In December, 1864, at Strawberry Plains,
Tennessee, four companies of his regiment and two companies of a
Tennessee regiment were engaged in an important battle. On August,
23, 1865, Mr. McConnell received his honorable discharge and returned
to Kenton.
Like so many of the returned soldiers of those times, Mr. McConnell
taught school for a time after returning home, and in the following
winter the money he had thus earned was spent in paying his tuition at
a private school at Xenia, Ohio. For several years afterward he alter-
nated teaching school in the summer months and attending the National
Normal School at Lebanon, Ohio, from which he was finally graduated,
and for one year thereafter he taught school.
Deciding then upon a business career, Mr. McConnell came to
Springfield, Ohio, and entered the employ of the Saint John Sewing
Machine Company as general utility man, and continued with that con-
cern for fourteen years, or until it went out of business. Mr. McConnell
then went with P. P. Mast & Company, farm implements, and after
seven years with them worked for three years for the Superior Drill
Company. For several years thereafter he was variously engaged, but
since 1912 has lived retired. In September, 1883, he moved into a
large double house, corner of Broadway and Isabella Street, which he
owns, and in 1901 he built another house, 1314 Broadway, which he
rents.
On July 15, 1875, Mr. McConnell married Elizabeth Ivins, born near
Lebanon, Warren County, Ohio, in September, 1847, a daughter of
Thomas and Mary (Cliver) Ivins, natives of New Jersey, who came
to Warren County, Ohio, about 1830, and in early life Mr. Ivins worked
as a wagonmaker, but later on became a farmer. He was born in 1806
and died at the age of eighty-seven years, and his wife, born in 1805,
died in 1869.
Mr. and Mrs. McConnell became the parents of the following children :
Ralph Homer, who died at the age of three and one-half years ; Grace and
Blanche, who died in infancy; and Clarence Herbert, who is employed
in the Springfield post office, married Ella Russell, and they have two
children, Elizabeth and John Hugh. Mrs. McConnell is well educated,
having attended the common schools and the National Normal School
at Lebanon. Both Mr. McConnell and wife belong to the Central
Methodist Episcopal Church of Springfield. He is a republican, but
not active in politics. Fraternally he maintains membership with Clark
Lodge, F. and A. M., and Moncrieffe Lodge, K. of P. He belongs to
Mitchell Post No. 45, G. A. R., which he has been quartermaster since
1913, and he served it as adjutant for four years.
