Surnames: Manus, Manis, Manes Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XeB.2ACE/3419.1.3 Message Board Post: Ruth and Rhonda, Could you look in your vol's 1 and 2 to see if there is any mention of the Manus/Manis/Manes and different spellings? Specifically Stokely/Stokley Manus who was b. 1814 in TN, Bartholomew Manus b. bet. 1770-1780 in NC or TN. Stokley is in 1840 Hawkins Co., TN Census (as Stokely D. Manis) and Bartholomew is in 1830 and 1840 Hawkins Co., TN Census as Bartley Manis. I am searching for parents and siblings for Stokley D. Manus and wonder if Bartholomew (Bartley) Manus was his father. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance. Elizabeth (Manes) Baldwin granmm4686@aol.com
