Do you know of Conner ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Conner. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Conner.<1>

Our sources for Conner (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Conner other than they indicate that Conner would be found somewhere in Somerset County, Pennsylvania.
