This biography from the Archives of AskART:
| The following, submitted December 2005, is from Todd Kendig.
I am a descendant of Charlotte Connard's sister Mary Lou (Conner)
Eckert and a distant cousin of the artist.
Charlotte's full name at birth was Elizabeth Charlotte
Conner, born December 5, 1863.
Marriages believed to be about 1910 to Leo Von Rosenburg (and we have another name which may have been an alias: Mr. D'Orsini).
She was later married again about 1920 to another of my distant relatives: William Eakert Chamberlain.
Charlotte traveled to and painted scenes of the Grand Canyon. She
did a lot of family portraits, many of which are still in the
family. I have ones of my 2nd great grandmother (her sister) and
my 2nd great grandfather, Uriah Eckert. We also have a few
photographs of Charlotte.
Her name was Conner, but for most of her artwork she used the name
Connard. "We believe it was to hide her Irish ancestry."
She died November 23, 1948.
