• Name	John Manning  [1]
  Birth	1 Mar 1785	Lebanon, Connecticut, -USA   [1]
  Gender	Male
  Note	SOURCE The Manning Family by William H. Manning 1902 'He was a soldier in the Conn. militia in the war of 1812, and was in active service in 1814, probaly near New London. He was a farmer, residing for one ot two years on the Windham road in Franklin. He returned to Lebanon and, about the time of his second marriage, built the house which was his home for the rest of his life, where his grandson Nathaniel Manning now (1901) lives. When the railroad was projected about 1845 he, in contrast with the attitude of the majority, was in its favor, the result being that it was located through his farm, rather than in nerghboring valleys. After its construction he acted as the agent at Lebanon, a service that was, from the financial condition of the company, not so much that of a paid employee as a friendly accommodation to both the road and the public. In character he was progressive in his ideas, independent in thought, and firm in his decisions. He was not chosen to any public office, but was employed a great deal as administrator of estates, one of them being that of Col. Jacob Hingsbury of Franklin, which required his going to Ohio to look up real estate interests, when the means of travel were the stage-coach and canal-boat.'
