| MANN in Lincoln/Christian/Logan/Todd/Muhlenberg Cos., KY, before ca. 1850 |
There was no 1790 census of KY, and the 1800 census of KY was lost/destroyed. The Christian Co., KY, Courthouse burned in 1864. I have tax rolls for Christian Co., KY, only for the years 1800, 1804-13, and 1819-23; so some of the apparent discontinuities in appearance on the rolls are artificial. Also, "senior citizens" were often exempted from taxes, widows with children were usually not taxed, and exemptions were sometimes given for other reasons (e.g., service to the community), so absence from the tax rolls is not proof of absence from the county. Links are to family group sheets (with sources). |

| The "Earliest MANN" (sorry, couldn't resist)
John and Catherine (MANN) CORDRY are said to have arrived in Christian Co. bef. 1795, qualifying them as true Kentucky pioneers. John CORDRY does show up on the Christian Co. tax rolls in 1800 (the earliest tax roll I have). John is said to have died in 1815, and he is listed as deceased on the 1819 tax roll (and possibly earlier — I don't have the rolls for 1814-18). The family is said to have moved to Cooper Co., MO, in 1830, with son, Elijah CORDRY, coming in 1835. The documentation I have is consistent with that scenario. Sally CORDRY, daughter of John and Catherine, married Andrew MANN, son
of the John MANN from Lincoln Co., KY (see below). I'm inclined to
think Catherine was a sister to the "Lincoln County MANNs," but I've yet
to place her or John CORDRY in Lincoln Co. A deeper dig into Lincoln
Co. records might turn him/them up.

| The "Lincoln County Seven"
The seven MANNs below, whom I have dubbed the "Lincoln County Seven" were the only MANNs in early (pre-1819) Lincoln Co., that I know of. Five of these seven MANNs show up in the records of Christian Co., KY, during the period from ca. 1797 to 1804. With just two known exceptions, these five are the only MANNs in Christian Co., KY, before 1819. One exception is Catherine (MANN) CORDRY and her family (described above); the other is the appearance of a second John MANN on the tax rolls, just once, in 1809. I strongly suspect these MANNs are brothers, except that Charles may be their father. They are listed chronologically in the order of their birth dates, if
known, otherwise by marriage date. Charles, the suspected father,
is listed first. Charles is the only one who shows up in records
as early as 1790; and, unless Thomas or Robert had an early demise, Charles
was the first to pass away.

| The "Virginia MANNs"
While the "Lincoln County MANNs" appear to be originally from Virginia,
they passed nearly two decades in Lincoln Co., KY, before moving to Christian/Todd
Co. around 1800. In contrast, these MANNs appear to have moved directly
from Virginia to Christian Co., KY, some time between 1816 and 1819.
I have, so far, found no connection between these MANNs and the ones from
Lincoln Co.

| Jesse MANN
Looking to sort out the Jesse MANNs born in the late 1700s and early 1800s who show up in western KY and TN. The central question here is: are Nos. 1 and 2 below the same person? 1. The Jesse MANN who is in the 1820 census of Todd Co., KY, and who married Elizabeth WYATT in 1817 in Christian Co., KY. 2. The Jesse MANN who is in the 1830 census of Stewart Co., TN, and who married first Elizabeth __?__ and second Mary CROW, fathered John Chesterfield MANN in 1829 in Stewart Co., TN, and is believed to have died in Independence Co., AR. 3. The Jesse MANN who is in the 1820/30/40/50 censuses of Butler Co., KY, who was born in 1793/4 in NC, and who married Mary WARDEN in 1837 in Logan Co., KY (adjacent to Butler Co.). 4. The Jesse L. MANN who is in the 1830 census of Robertson Co., TN, is Jesse Limuel MANN, who was born 1800 in Amelia Co., VA, and who married Margret Elizabeth STROUD in 1819 in Robertson Co., TN. 5. The Jesse MANN, Sr., who is in the 1830 Census of Robertson Co., TN, is...??? The two Jesse's are on the same page with a Thomas MANN, and there are four additional MANNs enumerated: Abel, John, Robert, and William. 6. The Jesse MANN who settled in Hendricks Co., IN, is Jesse Perkins MANN, who was born 1803, some say in VA, some say in TN. Jesse married Mary Lee THORP in 1824 in Shelby Co., KY. His parents were Thomas & Mary (PERKINS) MANN. [See Broderbund CD-13 for family group sheet; also CD-15 (Family Groups Sheet #8294).] If Jesse actually was born in TN and as his father was Thomas, could the father be the missing Thomas from the "Lincoln County Seven"? 7. The Jesse MANN who is in the index of the 1850 Census of Logan Co., KY. In my examination of the digitized image of this page, I read his name as "Jesse Mann " ", that is, as "Jesse Mann" plus a ditto mark indicating his surname is that of the male on the line above him, thus making him "Jesse Mann WESTRY." In any case, he is a 16-year-old male and not of the generation of interest here. If anyone can add to this list or make corrections to it, please get in touch with me. |
