Edwin went to sea on fishing schooners as a boy, graduated from Eastern State Normal School (now the Maine Maritime Academy) and in 1906 from Bates College (starring there in baseball, basketball and football and for four years on the all-state

football team [once as an end, once as a tackle and twice as a fullback]), then was principal and coach at Hallowell, Maine, then teacher and coach at Lincoln High School, Cleveland, Ohio (where his life-long nickname "Chief" originated).  During his

ten years at Lincoln High School he also operated summer camps for boys in New York's Adirondack Mountains, where he became friends of naturalists Ernest Thompson Seton and Dan Beard, and was in the group with them which worked with General Sir Robert

Baden-Powell to bring Boy Scouting to the United States.

During World War I he was athletic director at Camp Sherman, Chillicothe, Ohio.  His effectiveness there led Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. to induce him to come to Akron to coach its basketball team in the industrial league; he coached at Goodyear from 12

May 1919 until he retired 01 Sept. 1953.  [After W.W. I he had a choice of three positions: recreational director for Goodyear, one with the federal Park Service, and an opportunity to go to Bermuda to be in a motion picture with Ann Kellerman, a

famous swimmer.]  He started every heat of the Soap Box Derby from its move to Akron in 1935 until the late 1950s, served on the Akron Recreation Commission, 1934-51 (chair, 1941-51) and the Akron Board of Education, originated the father-son banquet

and pioneered the industrial recreation movement; he was in wide demand as an inspirational speaker.

His career at Goodyear was celebrated 20 January 1954 with an open house at the Goodyear Gym in Akron.  Sportswriter Jim Schlemmer offered an extensive tribute in the Akron Beacon Journal the previous Sunday.  He wrote, "Swimmer, cyclist, skater (he

once skated nonstop from Cleveland to Akron on the frozen canal); Conner might have succeeded Jack Johnson as the heaveyweight fistic champion is his desire for that kind of business had been equal to his ability...

"Instead, even before coming to Akron, he devoted his space time to church work and already had won recognition as the originator and developer of the Father-Son Week idea.

"...Long years spent in Boy Scout work built intimate friendships with General Baden-Powell, Ernest Thompson Seton, Dan Beard and others.  They called him Coach or Chief like everybody else...."

His obituary in the Akron Beacon Journal calls him "big in body, in voice, in mind and in ideals."  He was an avid, serious fisherman, tying his own flies.  He died fishing from a boat in the Indian River.  He is buried beside his wife in Castine,

Maine.  He was a mesomorph in body type.  Historian Phil Perkins told A. E. Myers in August, 1995 that Ed Conner had been touted as a contender for the national boxing championship, but that his wife (Vivian) protested strenuously, and he therefore did

not fight.  He was member 73083 of Lafayette Chapter of the Ohio Society of the Sons of the American Revolution as a descendant of Capt. David Dunbar, Jr. of Massachusetts.

Edwin married Kenniston, Vivian Inez on 6 Dec 1901 in Amherst, ME. Vivian was born on 27 Sep 1881 in Amherst, ME; died on 21 Jun 1960 in Castine, Hancock, Maine; was buried in Castine, Hancock, Maine. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Vivian entered Eastern State Normal School (now Maine Maritime Academy) at Castine, Maine in 1898, teaching in small schools to pay for her tuition and graduating in June, 1901. In the fall of 1900 she met Ed Conner, a fellow student whom she married
in her family's living room. After the birth of their first child she returned to the normal school and finished
the Advanced Normal Course in 1905. She was organizer and president of the Goodyear Women's Club, Central High School PTA, the Women's Democratic Club and League of Women Voters, all in Akron, Ohio. She also belonged to the Sixth Ward Democratic
Club, Public Affairs Study Club, Cleveland Shakespeare Society (charter member), and the Cleveland South Side Women's Club. She was active in the Society of Mayflower Descendants, Daughters of the American Revolution (Regent of the Akron Chapter),
National Huguenot Society, Daughters of American Colonists, National Society of Women Descendants of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company (National Number 626), National Society of Magna Carta Dames and the New England Genealogical and Historic
Society. She was active in the Women's Suffrage Movement, Democratic Party State Central Committeewoman, served as a delegate to the National Democratic Convention in 1936 and vigorously engaged in local politics. She would have agreed with First
Lady Hillary Clinton ("It Takes a Village," 1996) in the "view of government that dates back to the Pilgrims. In this view, government is an instrument both to promote the common good and to protect the individual's rights to life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness." She was first president of the Mothers' Clubs of Kappa Kappa Gamma (her daughter Marian's sorority at The University of Akron) and of Chi Theta Tau. She is buried beside her husband in Castine.

A Parker family was in Castine very early -- John Peters' survey in 1787
shows an Oliver Parker tract on the north shore of Hatch's Cove. Biographies
of several 19th century Parkers are given by Wheeler, George A., "History of
Castine...", pp. 181-2 and 420-1, which reports that a daughter Lucy was born
to Capt. Jonathan Hatch Parker (b. 1834) and his second wife, Marietta Hatch;
"Hatch" was captain of the cutter Woodbury at the time of his death in 1891.
