Washington and Elizabeth were married in the Euclid/East Cleveland area in 1837. Elizabeth's grandfather, David Dille, was one of the first settlers of Euclid, arriving in 1803, the year Ohio became a state.
Both Washington and Elizabeth were involved in the Disciples of Christ in the East Cleveland area and are mentioned in the book, The History of the Disciples in the Western Reserve, written my A.S. Hayden. It was quite exciting to read about my family in this wonderful history of the Cleveland area.
This couple had but one son, Byron Roderick O'Connor, born Aug. 12, 1838.
In the 1850 Census the O'Connor's were living in Michigan, but sometime thereafter moved to Mishawaka, Indiana where Elder Washington O'Connor passed away in 1858.
