The Carson City Gazette, Thursday, May 20, 1937


John James Manning was born on June 29, 1873, on his farm where he spent all 
his life and where he died Tuesday, May 4, 1937, at the age of 63 years, 10 
months and five days.  He was married on March 13, 1905 to Miss Lettie Sawyer 
of Fenwick and they came immediately to the present home where they have since 
lived.

Six children were born to this union, of whom survive the father, Mrs. Percy 
Cotton of Hubbardston and James Welcome and Minnie Rowena, at home.  Two nieces 
were also brought up by Mr. and Mrs. Manning.  They are now married and living 
in Detroit; Mrs. Rebecca Elizabeth Sanders and Mrs. Gertrude Anna Bowman.

Mr. Manning’s departure is mourned by his widow, his mother, Mrs. Rebecca 
Elizabeth Manning, at home, the three children and a sister, Mrs. Anna Vonn of 
Sparta, three grandchildren and several nephews and nieces.

Mr. Manning was highly respected by all who knew him and beloved by his family 
and neighbors for his spirit of helpfulness and kindness.  He had been a member 
of the Grand Rapids Consistory of the Sublime Princess of the Royal Secret of 
the 32nd degree.

The burial service was held from the home on Friday, May 7, the Rev. John W. 
Broxholm officiating, and burial at the Hubbardston West Side cemetery.
