Outline
*1st Generation
John manley
B: circa 1634
D. Unknown
M; Agnes Carswell, Sept. 15, 1658, Milverton, Somerset,
England
Notes: The children of John are found in the Milverton parish
register. What is interesting is that half of the children
are listed as having a mother called Anne and the other
half a mother called Agnes. The reason why I have grouped
these together is because there is evidence that seems to
indicate that they are all the same family and Anne is actually
Agnes. There is a will of Simon Manly of Sampford Peverell
(not to hand at the moment) that mentions his brothers John
in Milverton, William in Topsham and Nathan in Lympstone.
This is circa 1730/40 and so ties in well with Simon, John,
William and Nathan all being of same parentage. Unfortunately
the will which was held at Exter Record Office appears to
have been destroyed during the blitz, however there is an
extract of it which provides this information that the RO
still holds.
