Source Most if not all Connors Obituaries from Newfoundland newspapers were given to me by Jack Connors of St. John's*.  US obits were collected by family members.

*I defer to him entirely on the Newfoundland Connors as he undoubtedly has done the most digging on all the branches there. Whether we can connect our groups  will not depend upon the amount of work or collaboration involved for if it were, the puzzle would surely have been solved by now.
