David and Eliza

wgmvlm — 2009-09-07 18:57:58Z

This is especially for Julie Manwarren, but I would appreciate help from anyone. Several months, or a couple of years ago, we corresponded concerning David Manwarren (Oct. 23, 1810--Jul 7, 18--Dec. 29, 1893) and Eliza Valie (Jan. 4, 1813--28 Oct. 1898) . I have visited David and Eliza's graves in Michigan in Monroe County. There is also a James B. Manwarren buried there along with his wife. He was born in 1821. Pretty close to David's birth. James was born in Mexico, Oswego, New York. Giles b. Jan. 27, 1786 in Lyme, New London, Connecticut, at various times was also in Bethany, Genesee, New York; Philadelphia Dock Ward, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Oxford, Chenango, New York; Portage, Kalamazoo, etc.

I am pretty sure that Giles had two wives and two separate families. It's my feeling that David and James B were half brothers but possibly full brothers. I suppose they could have been cousins, but it doesn't seem to me that James would have followed David to Lulu or Ida, Monroe, Michigan if they were no closer than that. There are still Manwarrens/Manwarrings/ living in the area.

Do you think that my theories might possibly be correct? If so, how in the world am I going to prove it?

I appreciate all the help you've given me looking for David and Eliza. I surely hope we come up with the answer soon.

Thank you.

Jim,

You have absolutely no idea how much I have been waiting and hoping for someone like you to come along. I have been looking for information on David and Eliza for more than forty years. They are as far back as I can go. I have their kids listed and places of birth but not birth dates. Although I am working of several lines at once, my main interest is David and Eliza. I have been to their graves in the Lulu Cemetery in Lulu, Monroe County, Michigan. So I know when they were born and when they died. However, I don't know where they were born for sure--David was probably born in New York but I have records that claim he was born in Pennsylvania and Connecticut. I doubt it. My best bet is near or in Mexico, Chenango County, New York.

There is a James B. Manwarren and his wife, daughter, and son-in-law buried in the same cemetery as David and Eliza. David is, I believe, eleven years older than James. Were they half brothers, both sons of Giles (the younger one, not his father) or were they related in some other way. Why did they both go to Lulu? Was David the offspring of Gile's first wife and James the offspring of Gile's second wife? So many questions, so few answers.

I would greatly, greatly appreciate any answers to my questions that you can give me. I would also be extremely glad if you would share your information with me. I have a great many of David's son's (George's) descendents. I would be more than happy to share what I have with you, including photos.

Thanks so much for writing. I will anxiously await your next email.

David, by the way, was my great-great grandfather.

Thanks again for getting in touch with me. I'll send you a picture (files) or David and Eliza, (also) originally tintypes, soon.

LindaSeals14 — 2005-09-07 06:13:12Z

Cindy, this is the first time I have seen any mention of the name Manwarren in the message boards. By any chance is the Manwarren you are researching related to Emmett Manwarren of Oxford, NY? I'd love to hear from you as my Manwarren research is going nowhere. My e-mail address is RoseLeeRN@aol.com. Sincerely, Linda

Re: manwarren

LindaSeals14 — 2005-09-07 06:13:12Z

Cory, Thank you for responding to my message. Yes! That is the Emmett Manwarren I was writing about. He is my great-grandfather. I was actually able to come up with a lot of information on Ida by researching my grandfathers brother Claude. Please contact me at RoseLeeRN@aol.com and we can share family information. I would like to see references back to Jabez Manwarring - I haven't been able to follow the Manwarren line back further than Emmett.

looking for info on George Manwarren who married Francis Palmerton and divorced.

2005-08-26 19:43:10Z

I am looking for information about George Manwarren. He was the son of Charles Manwarren and Elizabeth Witherwax. Elizabeth was born Aug. 4, 1839. Charles died May 10 1864.

Francis Palmerton was born 1860 in Caughdenoy, NY. Oswego County. She died at Syracuse, NY 1912

George and Francis had a son named John when they divorced. Charity Hopkins Palmerton, his grandmother, adopted John giving him the last name of Palmerton.

Any information you can give me would be helpful.

Thank you

Manwarren DNA project

manwarren170 — 2004-05-15 03:20:30Z

This is for all of you who have reached the same dead end with George Manwarren/Manwaring and Temperance Chapel and how and if they are connected to Oliver Manwaring. (possibly through Richard?) Perhaps you are struggling too, with finding proof that your ancestor is the desendant of the Manwarings of New London, CT. DNA is the answer. We have contacted Relative Genetics Labs in Utah, and they are willing to send us kits to collect DNA. If you are interested in helping us with this project through a little financial help or if you are a male and a direct decsendant of George and are willing to provide a sample of your DNA and you are interested in having access to this data, please email me at manwarren@epix.net
Thanks! Julie

Hi Jean, Sorry I have been ot of town for 6 weeks..My grandfather says the Manwarren's come from Ireland, and that when the came to the US That the men all changed their names. Some kept Manwarren, some took Mann, some Warren and some Manwaring..But I have a cousin that said the family had a Coat of arms (Manwaring) in England so I am confused..I have tried to find when they came over, and tried to track in Census records but have not found much info...you could email me at 1968@centurytel.net, hopefully we can get together and figure this out.

Heather, Several months ago, you very kindly responded to my inquiry about Mary Manwarren (dob 3/12/1836) who married my ancestor John Wellington. I would be very interested to learn more about her Manwarren ancestry. Do you know what country the Manwarrens emigrated from, or when they entered the U.S.? Thank you again for sharing information with me. Jean

Re: Manwarren

julmanwarren — 2003-11-20 02:11:23Z

Hello! I have information on your line. I was so excited to read your message posting. Emmett (who married Ida Padgett) had 4 sons. Claude, E. Ross, Jay, and Ray. Ray had a son named Howard and Howard had a son named Harris. Harris Manwarren lives in Chenango County and I have been in contact with him. He gave me information on his line back to the 1700's. I am tracing my husband's line through Emmett's brother, William. The line is as follows:
George Manwaring (name wasn't changed to Manwarren until later), born 1767 in New London, CT; died May 2, 1848 in Chenango County, NY. he was married to a Lucy (last name unknown) and had seven children, George Jr., Giles, John, Samuel, Hannah, Nancy, and Temperance. Samuel had a son named James F. Manwarren who married a Mary Ann Clark. James was born on 1832 in Chenango County, NY and died on Dec. 3, 1884. James had four sons, Samuel, William (my husbands line) Charles, and Emmett (your line). I am working with Harris Manwarren and would be willing to work together with you as well to piece to gether more information on this line and see if we can locate the ancestors of George. Please email me at manwarren@epix.net if you would like to correspond. Good luck in your research!
sincerely,
Julie A. Manwarren

Re: Manwarren

2003-11-15 16:43:21Z

Yes, I would be very interested. When did the name change to Manwarren? Would they have been buried in the Oxford cemetary? My Claude and some of his brothers are buried their?

Re: Mary Manwarren, 1836-1881

2003-11-04 17:21:01Z

Heather, I was pleased to receive your detailed information on Mary Manwarren. Thank you very much. Mary and John Wellington eventually had quite a large family (see below). Sadly, Mary died at a fairly young age (45), leaving several small children for John to finish raising. Within a few years, he married a young woman named Kitty Hickok, who was a widow w/no children. John and Kitty had no children. Both lived very long lives and, according to newspaper accounts, both were well liked and respected members of the New London, IA community.

According to the 1870 Census for Iowa, Henry Cty., Baltimore, the children of Mary Manwarren and John Wellington were:
Ellie, 13, born in Indiana
Minor, 11, born in Michigan
Hattie, 8, born in Michigan
George, 6, born in Michigan
William, 1, born in Iowa.
The 1880 Census (same location) lists 4 additional children, all born in Iowa:
Sarah, 8
John, 6
Emma, 4
Fred, 1

Mary's grave is in the Lowell, IA cemetery. The gravestone also lists John's name and I believe he may be buried there, altho I haven't confirmed that yet. Thank you again for sharing your information about Mary Manwarren, my great-grandmother. Her child, Minor, was my ancestor. I will be happy to share further information with you if you have interest.

Mary Manwarren, 1836-1881

2003-06-17 23:56:35Z

I am seeking information about Mary Manwarren, born in New York in 1836. She married John Wellington in Richland County, Ohio in 1852. She died in Iowa in 1881.

Re: Manwarren

2003-01-19 02:32:24Z

My great grandfather is Emmett Manwarren (1858-1937) who married Ida Paget (1966-1911). They had 4 childeren - Claude (my grandfarher), Ray, Emmett (Ross), and Jay. I have information on each of these and their children. Many are buried in the Riverview cemetery in Oxford, NY. This past summer I visited the cemetery. However, I can find no information concerning Emmett. My mother and her sisters do not remeber. If there is any additional inofmration, I would be intersted also.

Re: Manwarren

2002-12-18 22:50:26Z

I don't know much about the Manwarrens of Oxford except for the ones who married into my husband's family. However, they may go back to George Manwarren, who appears on the 1830 census for Oxford. He was in his 60's then, and is probably the same George Manwarren who died on May 2, 1848, age 81. (This is from Oxford Vital Records -- I believe I found it at the Chenango County webiste.)

There was also a Giles Manwarren in Oxford on the 1830 census. He was in his 20's, so he could have been George's son, but I don't know for sure. And the Oxford Vitals show a Lucretia Manwarren of Oxford who married Benjamin Potter on 5 Apr 1849.

I don't know how all these people were related, and I don't know how (or even if) they were connected to the various Manwaring and Manwarring families who also lived in Chenango County -- although it does seem likely that they all originated in Connecticut.

Good luck with your search.

Laurel Manwarren Heathcock

2002-04-21 22:53:46Z

Laurel was married to my grandfather James Richard Heathcock. Together they had 5 children:
James Richard jr., Edwin, Kennith Donavan, Charles Robert, and Velma Jean. No one seems to know anything else. I dont have any dates, I know that Laurel and James both died in Ithica, Mi but I think they may have come out of the St.Louis area. Not positive though. Viola may have been Laurels middle name or even her mothers name. If anyone has any information on her, or something that might tie into it, please email me. jill_heathcock@hotmail.com Thank you!:)

Re: manwarren

2002-02-07 07:05:37Z

Linda -
Are you by any chance referring to Emmett Manwarren (1858-1937) who married Ida B. Padgett on 4 Feb 1885 in Oxford, NY? I am doing research on the Padgetts of Oxford (my husband's mother's family), so if this is the same Emmett, I'd like to compare notes with you. Ida's mother was also a Manwarren, so I've been curious about this family and have been looking around for information on them -- I suspect they are descended from Jabez Manwarring who settled in Coventry in 1806.

Gary, I'm not sure where they would be buried. I think it would be in or around Oxford, though. I will email you what I have and we can keep each other posted on our findings. We did find a connection for George though. We now have good evidence that suggests he was the son of George Manwaring and Temperance Chapel. Also, it is my belief that he is some how desended from Richard Manwaring and Eleanor Jennings. Have you come across these names at all? - Julie

Re: manwarren tree

julmanwarren — 2003-11-20 02:11:23Z

Hi Mark! I thought I would post the information here so that others who are searching can view it as well. Your grandfather's (Kenneth) father was Ward Manwarren (birth and death dates unknown by me at this time) he was born in NY and he was married to Rose May Gardner. (her dates and parentage unknown). Ward's father was William Manwarren. William was born in 1856 in Chenango County, NY. William's wife was Fannie Hackett. Fannie was born about 1862 in New York. I have information on her ancestors if you want it. William's father was James F. Manwarren/Manwaring (unsure when name changed to Manwarren, but have seen James' last name spelled as Manwaring) James was born 1832 in Chenango County, NY and he died Dec. 3, 1884 in New York. He was married to Mary Ann Clark from Oxford, New York (dates unknown). James' father was Samuel Manwaring. I have no dates on Samuel or info on his wife. Samuel died young - before James was 16. Samuel's father was George Manwaring. George was born in 1767 in New London, CT. He married Lucy (last name unknown) and they moved to Chenango County, NY around 1806 with George's brothers, Jabez and Peter. George died May 2, 1848 in Chenango County, NY. His wife Lucy died in Chenango County in 1845. George's parents were George Manwaring & Temperance Chapel of New London, NY. I have the line traced back from George to the year 1200. There are one or two glitches in the line where I couldn't find proveable evidence. But I feel it is the most accurate I could get it at this time. every thing i have posted here has been sourced. hope it helps!

My grandparents were George and Ellen Kilts Manwarren. He was born in Amboy, Oswego County, in 1831. They lived in Oneida County. George and Ellen had 14 children; my father was the youngest. He died in 1901; she died in 1903. I have information on this particular branch of the Manwarren family going back to the late 1700s. I'd be happy to share it with you.
