Hi Jim! It might interest you to know that we have a CT SABR chapter, named for Smoky Joe Wood. We might periodically, and we would be interested in hearing about this work. Our next chapter meeting is down at Quinnipiac University in Hamden on Sat. Feb. 24. Would you like to do a presentation about what you've done on Connor? We are thinking about creating a CT Baseball Hall of Fame, and Connor would be a prime candidate for membership, along with O'Rourke. What you are doing would also be of interest for our developing web-site.
Hope to hear from you soon! Regards, Steve Krevisky, chapter President.

John,
I was born and raised in Waterbury and I have done a lot of research
on Roger Connor. If you're looking for any specific information,
let me know and I can try to send you material from my file.
Two very good bios on Connor come to mind, if you want to track them
down.
The first is in a SABR-published book titled "Baseball's First
Stars" edited by Frederick Ivor-Campbell, Robert L. Tiemann and Mark
Rucker.
The second is in a book titled "Ghosts in the Gallery at
Cooperstown: 16 Forgotten Members of the Hall of Fame" by David L.
Fleitz (McFarland & Co.)
Good luck.
Jim
