I am descended from the original Duffey family from Adams County, OH. I too have ancestors buried at Cherry Fork, and Tranquility. I noticed that you make reference, several times to some of them. The original Duffey (Michael) came over from Londonderry, Ireland with his buddy, Thomas Ramsey (1759). They both fought in the American Revolution (probably beside your McManis Family). I made a trip (I call it a pilgrimage) to Adams County a couple of years ago for the first time. It was totally fascinating to see some of my people buried there. I had gone for years not knowing the history of my family. It's too bad that my father (Denver H. Duffey) died before I could take him down. My children will know all about me and their Duffey roots. I actually wrote my memoirs (mainly for them). It is entitled, "The Pipes Are Calling". I'm sure that the McManis's and Duffey's were very good friends.
Natalie, hello again, well my family tree is really growing thanks to you and many others. I was wondering if you had any info on the railroad that my g-grandfather and grandfather Jesse Hylas and Burtle Lawrence McManis had worked on for so many years or if you knew how I could obtain such info. I am really interested in the days they worked on the RR. I was also wondering if you had any info on the family of my grandmothers (Gertie Boyer) who married Burtle Lawrence McManis It is very hard to find any info on them. Also thanks for adding my link. Mary

My brick wall continues to be my great grandfather, Thomas Greenberry McManus, b abt 1830, TN/GA/AL?? Have not been able to locate him prior to the 1850 Fayette Co., AL census. His 1851 MS marriage license (m Susan Howard) has the spelling as McMahon so that confuses me even more! Would like any encouraging words on this line or some hints of a connection with his parents. Thanks

Hi. I'm Denis McManus, and I live (was born and should eventually die in) Ireland. I had a quick lookie through the site and didn't see anything about the family ancestry before you hit America. I was wondering if you have done any research into this, and if so, well, what? Great site, otherwise. Interesting in the extreme.
I am glad to provide a happy conclusion to my McManus search... Here is what I can say, and what I can offer: I have found my Frank McManus, and his first wife, and photos of him with both wives and other family members. I know where he was born, a bit of his ancestry, and where he is buried, etc. So I now have what I sought. I am willing to share what I have. If anyone finds they have additional bits for me, so much the better! Contact me if you want any of what I have by way of data or photos. Vince Summers
Just found your web site. Would like to find information on My Grandfather Elvin C. McMannis from Morgan Co. Ohio. My grandmother name was Sarah. They had children, Gladys (my mom) Golda, Odessa. Georgia, Roscoe, Daniel, Delbert. Your site is great.
I am the daughter of David L. R. McManus. I am interested in lineage. His parents were James and Lillian McManus.
My mother was Gladys Pearl McMannis. Her father was Charles Elvin and his father was Eli McMannis. This is all I know about the family. They lived in Morgan Co. Ohio.
My grandmother has tried researching my grandfathers side of the family with no success. My grandfather's name was William McMannis. My great-grandfather hitched hiked to Kansas from Indiana back in the 1800's, she has located several McMannis's (McManis) burial sites in Indiana. She has been unsuccessful at tracking down birth or death certificates in Indiana. If you have information please contact me. Thank you for the great site about the McManus, McManis, and McMannis clan, keep up the good work.
