Elizabeth B. (Hall) Manning was born in Virginia. In their youth she and her future husband were taken by their parents to Alabama, and in Dallas County they grew up, received their education and were married. For several years after the celebration of their nuptials they continued to reside in Alabama, Mr. Manning being engaged in planting, but in 1842 they immigrated to Louisiana, located in Union parish, where they purchased land and turned their attention to tilling the soil, becoming possessed of considerable land and a large number of slaves prior to the opening of the Civil War. Mr. Manning was not an aspirant for political position but was a plain, practical and systematic farmer, well and favorably known throughout the parish as an honorable and high-minded gentleman. He and his wife were consistent members of the Baptist church. He died in 1879 and his widow in June 1891, at Ruston, LA, while visiting her daughter.
