*JOHN BUTLER CONYNGHAM was born in Wilkes-Barre September 29, 1827.
In the Fall of 1842, when not quite fifteen years of age, he entered Yale College. As a student he stood well, and took several honors. In July. 1844, he, with fourteen of his class-mates founded the DKE Fraternity. The founders

near the borders of Bradford and Schuylkill Counties respectively. The regiment was mustered in on August 15th, Henry M. Hoyt being then commissioned Lieutenant Colonel and John B. Conyngham was commissioned Major of the Wyoming Battalion on September 28th. From among local musicians, who were enlisted, the "Wyoming Cornet Band," was formed and this band served with great credit to itself as one of the best known musical organizations of the army. Seeing action first during the Yorktown campaign, the 52d later in the Spring of 1862 added many engagements along the Chickahominy to its list. At Fair Oaks, on May 31st, the regiment lost in casualties nearly fifty per cent of men engaged. Returned to Yorktown for re-organization, the regiment was converted to heavy artillery and early in 1863 was sent to Port Royal, S. C. from which point it operated in campaigns of that neighborhood. On July 4, 1864, Colonel Hoyt, with one hundred and twenty-five volunteers landed before Fort Johnson, one of the defenses of Charleston harbor. After seizing a battery, they scaled the parapet of the fort itself, but receiving no support from other troops, the survivors of the storming party were made prisoners. Nearly half of Colonel Hoyt's followers later died slow deaths at Andersonville, the officers themselves, being imprisoned on Morris Island in Charleston harbor, were subjected for a time to the fire of guns from their own command. To a boat load of adventurous members of the 52d was afforded the surprise of finding Fort Sumter evacuated, of DKE had at first no idea of propagating chapters. The body, however, became known and proved popular, and applications were received for charters for "branches" or chapters. Those fifteen mem- bers of the class of 1846 builded better than they knew, when they founded the brother- hood to which good fellowship has ever been a passport not less requisite than learning.
Graduating from college in the Summer of 1846, Mr. Conyngham returned to Wilkes-Barré and immediately began the study of law in the office of A. T. McClintock, Esq. He was admitted to the Bar of Luzerne County Angust 6, 1849. In 1852 he established himself at St. Louis, Mo., as a lawyer, and remained there, with great credit to himself, nutil 1856, when he returned to Wilkes-Barre.
Upon the breaking out of the War of the Rebellion, in April, 1861, he enlisted in Capt. William Brisbane's company, of Wilkes-Barre, for the three months' service. This company became "C" com- pany of the 8th Pennsylvania Regiment. and Mr. Conyngham was elected and served as its Second Lientenant.
When the 52nd Regiment of Pennsyl- vania Volunteers, for three years' service, was organized in the Fall of 1861, Lien- tenant Conyngham was made Major of the regiment. January 9, 1864, he was promoted to be Lieutenant Colonel, and soon after his regiment was ordered to South Carolina. During the attack on Fort Johnson, before Charleston, July 4, 1864, he was taken prisoner and confined, first in Charleston, and then in Columbus, Georgia. After his release he was, June 3, 1865, promoted to the Colonelcy of his regiment.
At the close of the war, Colonel Conyng- ham was honorably mustered out of the service, and returned to Wilkes-Barré. March 7, 1867, he was appointed Captain in the 38th U. S. Infantry, and in November, 1869, he was transferred to the 24th U. S. Infantry. In 1871 he was brevetted Lieu- tenant Colonel, for gallant services in the field. It was said of him, "He was a brave and good officer-cool in battle, always at the post of duty, and in the treatment of his men, gentle and kind. He was one of those who could always be relied on, and was exceedingly popular with both officers and soldiers."
