MANESS/MANIS/MANES, Lazerus/Lazerous(also other spellings - - MARTIN (Sarah Ann Martin, Humphreys married in 1870 Lazarus Maness (he had 12 children ? I need their names?) (Sarah had 9 or 7 from Humphreys-two sons named Nathan and George daughters ? but one married Willis Marion Smith her name could have been Sophie)- Lazerus and Sarah had four more children together. they are the following daughters: WILLIAM (BILL) MASTERSON (married Lissie Martha Ulysses Maness in 1888) - IRA MARION SMITH (married Lydia Caroline Carrie Maness in 1888) ELIJAH J. THOMPSON (married in 1892 Minnie S. Maness) Lazerus' father was said to have been Stephen Maness of Newton County. His wife was Mary "Polly" Myers. I think some of the children's names were 1st my Lazerus (but spelled differently), Lucinda, John (married Mary Harmon), William "Uncle Billy" (married Nancy Bullard), and James Franklin ( who married Anna Tira). I am not sure about this family. Does anyone have any other information on these Maness families that would help me? Thank you. Jo
