He introduced a bill to establish Yosemite National Park and voted to abolish slavery . His advocacy of Chinese immigration and civil rights cost him his constituency . Early life and education Born in Abbey , County Galway , Ireland , on September 22 , 1821 , Conness was the youngest of fourteen children . His father was Walter Conness , whom John described as " a very dignified and intellectual man , one whom men of all positions came to for counsel : being also a man of rare courage and independence . " Immigration and career In 1836 Conness arrived in the United States at age 15 as an immigrant . For more than a decade on the East Coast in New York , Conness learned to make pianofortes and also worked as a merchant . He emigrated to California in 1849 to join the excitement and promise of the Gold Rush . He was among the thousands of " forty-niners " attracted by the Gold Rush in the Sierra Nevada , and the hundreds of thousands who quickly followed . For two years , he mined Mormon Island , and the Middle Fork of the American River , and was interested in the industry for the rest of his life . Having made a stake , he settled in the new community of Georgetown and operated a store selling supplies to miners . The state was bustling with new people . In the 1850s , the Democratic Party was the only partisan organization , and it stretched to accommodate the many interests of the new residents . Elected to the State Assembly in the 1853-54 and 1860-61 sessions , Conness was nominated as the Anti-Lecompton Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor in 1859 and the Union Democratic candidate for Governor in the 1861 election . After losing to John G. Downey in the first election and Leland Stanford in the second , Conness was elected by the legislature to the United States Senate for the term beginning in 1863 . ( Senators were selected by state legislatures until the 17th Amendment was ratified in 1913 . ) Portrait by Mathew Brady c. 1860-1875 A Douglas Democrat who later became a Union Republican while serving in the Senate , Conness earned President Abraham Lincoln 's respect . The two men worked together on legislation Conness introduced to protect Yosemite National Park and Mariposa Grove . In addition , Conness gave support to Lincoln 's war measures . Lincoln once said of Conness that he " is habitually careful not to say what he does not know , " and described him on another occasion as " one of our United States Senators , of high standing , whom I cheerfully endorse . " Conness was with his Senate colleagues William M. Stewart of Nevada and Charles Sumner of Massachusetts the night Lincoln was assassinated . " Upon hearing of the attack on Secretary of State William H. Seward , the three men ran to Seward 's lodgings . There they were turned away by a doctor who was attending to Seward , and they ran to the White House , where they heard the news that Lincoln had been shot . Conness declared that 'this is a conspiracy to murder the entire cabinet ' and directed soldiers to go protect Secretary of War Edwin Stanton . " Conness had the honor of being a pallbearer at Lincoln 's funeral on April 19 , 1865 . At the beginning of Reconstruction , Conness alienated some of his California constituents by advocating strongly for Chinese immigration and civil rights . At a time of rising anti-Chinese feelings in California , his was an unusual and unpopular view , and he lost the support of his party . He strongly believed in justice for all immigrants . In the Senate debate on the 14th Amendment , Conness said “ We are entirely ready to accept the provision proposed in this constitutional amendment , that the children begotten of Chinese parents in California … shall be citizens . ” Conness c. 1909 After his Senate term ended in 1869 , Conness relocated to Boston , Massachusetts , a center of Irish-American life . He lived there the remainder of his life , for nearly four decades . He died in an insane asylum in Jamaica Plain , now part of Boston . After his death , he was buried in Cedar Grove Cemetery in Dorchester , Boston . Legacy and honors * Conness supported the federal land grants for Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Grove , founding what later became the Yosemite National Park . * Mount Conness and Conness Creek in the Sierra Nevada were named in his honor . * Conness voted for the amendments to abolish slavery and grant freedmen citizenship . * He supported immigration and civil rights for Chinese in California . * Last surviving pall bearer of Abraham Lincoln .
