Good luck in finding a census. Another tibit that you might
be interested in is that 16 year old William Manning was in Des Moines County, Iowa in 1860 was not alone. There is an 15 year old Ann living in the same place.She is listed under him without a last name so one would assume she is Ann Manning. Did he have another wife? or is this a sister?---one can only assume.
Another place to look for an 1850 census would be in Lewis
County, Missouri.That county is much nearer the Iowa boarder.He could have been born there rather than in St. Louis County, MO.I know his obit lists St. Louis and the online family at Rootsweb also lists St. Louis, St. Louis County, Missouri but small mistakes can be made by family
members so it is always best to look at all possibilities.
If you do find him I would be interested in knowing your results.
