I have an Edward Manning in my family tree - my great-great maternal grandfather.The 1881 Canadian Census lists him as being born in 1833 in England (1881 Census, Prince Ward, Saint John, St. John, New Brunswick, NA Film #C-13178, Distr. 24, Sub A, Div. 1, Page 9, Household 45).I know he married a Sarah Betts in Nova Scotia around 1860, and their children included Sarah, James W, Grace, Edward Betts, and Charles Morizain.I don't know about the others, but Edward Betts Manning was a noted composer and married an Elizabeth Mary Mathew; Grace married a George Hare, and James W (my g-grandfather) married Helen Georgina Augusta Hanington.If any of this sets off bells and whistles, please let me know.
