Generation: 1

  1. 1.  John B. Manchester was born 1825, Tiverton, Newport Co., RI (son of Bailey Manchester and Hannah Wilcox); died 7 Jan 1891, Tiverton, Newport Co., RI.

    Notes:

    John may have had an earlier marriage, because the 1860 Census at Tiverton shows a daughter Hannah, age 12, living with the family (but see note below). In the 1880 Census, John B. Manchester is still living at Tiverton, RI, and with him in the household are children Bailey 26, Patience A. 20, and William Henry 16. They are next door to his brother Gideon and family.

    In 1850, John Manchester is age 25, living with his parents, Baily 76 & Hannah 65. Besides John, other individuals in the household are: Hannah Manchester 34, Madison Manchester 9, William Manchester 6, & Hannah Manchester 2. Who is Hannah -- possibly a daughter or daughter-in-law, and who are the children? The younger Hannah is probably the one living with John & Emeline in 1860.

    John married Emeline G. Manchester 6 Apr 1853, Tiverton, Newport Co., RI. Emeline (daughter of Jeremiah A. MANCHESTER and Mary H. DENNIS) was born Abt 1833, Tiverton, Newport Co., RI; died 15 Jan 1867, Tiverton, Newport Co., RI. [Group Sheet]

    Jane Fletcher Fiske and John Redfern have John's ancestry as William & Mary, then Thomas & Margaret. Alden C. & Rita C. Manchester have his ancestry as John & Marie, then Thomas & Margaret.

    John was executor of his father's will.

    Tiverton Deed Book 1 has a deed dated 27 Jan 1754, naming John Manchester of Tiverton and his son Isaac of Tiverton. Does this pertain to this particular John Manchester? See elsewhere on this family tree, John Manchester born c1688.
