Goodevening group! Well, I'm finally back after 2 years .. can't believe it took me this long to get back! I hope this find you all healthy and in good spirits. I exchanged an email with Michele Houchens back in 2002 about the militia roll. At the time I was looking for any Mannings, and thanks to you all, found a John Hennesy married to one of my kin, Hannah Manning. In looking at these records again for the last few weeks, it has dawned on me there is another brother that I've been missing all this time. Michael Manning, Jr. Michele found a Michael Manning on the 2nd reserve list as a John Henesy and I'm wondering if this could be him. So my question, is to get alittle more info on this militia roll. I did a lookup on the IRAD site and came up with a few Michael Mannings, and also a few Henesy, but they aren't listed in the same unit. Should I just blindly send away for civil war packets on the Michael Manning's I did find, hoping that one of them is mine? The first one I'm going to do is the one that resides in Joliet, keeping my fingers crossed :) Thanks for any help! Lori
