Elihu Manley married Rebecca Atkins and they had Benjamin Franklin, Ludie, Mildred, Ethel and Mary. Elihu and Rebecca devoriced about 1918 to 1920 and then he married Nancy Romans. Elihu died in West Plains, Howell Co.,MO in 1964. He and Nancy had James Truman, Vada Irene, Maydene/May Dean and Johnny. Vada marr. Raymond Downen/Downing and Johnny marr. ? King. I am very tired tonight, but I can get you more info on this. I have been working on this for quite sometime and I am hoping to get with Vada and fill in some of the blanks I have. These things I know for sure.
