HISTORY OF KENTUCKY AND KENTUCKIANS, E. Polk Johnson, three volumes,
Lewis Publishing Co., New York & Chicago, 1912. Common version, Vol.
III,
p. 1193. [Campbell County]
John Y. Conn--Standing at the helm of two of Newport's most useful and
thriving industries, the Newport Coal Company and the Newport Ice
Company,
is John Y. Conn, who served in the capacity of president of both of
those
institutions. These two concerns give employment to nearly fifty men
and
thus contribute in good measure to the material prosperity of the
city,
and Mr. Conn thus plays the beneficent role of the citizen who
furnishes
honorable support for many of the more dependent members of society.
Mr. Conn is a native Kentuckian and was born in Jefferson county
on
September 4, 1859. His parents were Allen J. and Elizabeth (Tyler)
CONN,
the former a native of Indiana and the latter of Jefferson county,
Kentucky. The father was a farmer and was very successful in his
chosen
vocation, owning and operating a fertile tract of land situated about
sixteen miles east of Louisville. Here he lived the greater part of
his
life and from here was called to his reward at the age of seventy
years.
The mother is the representative of an old Kentucky family and may be
numbered among the pioneers of the Blue Grass state, or if not
strictly
speaking among the pioneers, Kentucky being one of the states earliest
settled, she is, nevertheless, one of those who well remembers the
charming life of Kentucky in ante-bellum days. Now at the age of
seventy-
six years she resides upon the old homestead. She is the mother of
five
children, three boys and two girls, two of whom are living at the
present
day, Mr. Conn and a younger sister, Mary Miller.
John Y. Conn passed his boyhood days upon the farm and enjoyed
the
manifold experiences of the lad who has an opportunity to live near to
the heart of nature. He received a common school education and had
some
thought of following in the paternal footsteps in the choice of life
work.
In fact he adhered to this resolution until after this thirtieth
birthday,
pursuing his agricultural ventures independently in both his native
county
and in Shelby county. Somewhere near the year 1890 Mr. Conn located
in
Newport and organized the Frigid Ice Company, and he has ever since
been
closely and prominently identified with its fortunes, and for the past
ten
years has served in the capacity of president, bringing to the
solution
of its problems judgment of a distinguished character. The plant is
equipped with the most modern machinery, having indeed from the first
employed the latest and best methods known in the business. It has
been
enlarged from time to time until it has a present capacity of
seventy-five
tons daily and supplying trade in both Newport and Cincinnati. This
industry gives employment to about thirty people and is counted as one
of the very substantial concerns of Newport.
Mr. Conn's executive gifts are by no means of small calibre [sic]
and
it is not strange that he has not been content to limit himself to the
management of one concern, even though it be of an important
character. On
July 6, 1906, the Newport Coal Company began business, Mr. Conn having
organized it and from the first served in the capacity of president.
It
has a capital stock of ten thousand dollars, and both a wholesale and
retail business is done. This furnishes employment to between fifteen
and
twenty men and in the four years of its existence has experienced a
steady
growth, and should its future progress prove proportionate to its past
it
will eventually enroll itself among the large businesses of this part
of
the Blue Grass state.
On the 25th of September, 1870, Mr. Conn laid the foundation of a
happy household by his marriage to R. Belle Frederick, a native of
Jefferson county and a daughter of Blueford Frederick, a Jefferson
county
agriculturist and the member of an old Kentucky family which
originally
came from the "Old Dominion." Both Mr. and Mrs. Conn are members of
the
First Baptist church of Newport, the former having for many years been
active in furthering the good and just measures promulgated by the
church
and having served as trustee for a period of fifteen years. Although
not
partisan in local matters Mr. Conn casts his vote with what its
adherents
are pleased to call the "Grand Old Party."
