| Notes for Daniel MANNING | ||||||||
| - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - DANIEL, b. about 1778, probably at Leicester. [Baptized at Waltham, 1787, Sep. 9, Daniel, aged 9, and Isaac, aged 7, sons of the widow Phebe Manning.] Daniel was a skillful musician, and one tradition is that he enlisted at the Charlestown Navy Yard as a bugler in the war of 1812, and soon died. Another account is that he "went South or West." One report is that he never married; other informants have no information upon this point. The present writer is inclined to doubt all of these traditions, especially as they lack conviction on the part of informants, and as there is good reason to doubt that Daniel was in the war of 1812. He certainly resided for a time at Charlestown. Who was the Daniel Manning whose intention of marriage with Mary Davis is found at Boston, 1803. June 6? Was this our Daniel? Did he have children? No opinion will be ventured here. [ref 13:221] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | ||||||||
