Re: Edgar Manns b.1897 Maryland African Amer

Gail, sound like we might be on to something here.My greatgrand father name was Anderson Manns.Married to Delia (I am not sure of her maiden name). I not even sure if she was his first wife.To that marriage (as I can remember) childern names were:Laura Manns, Aunt Cornelius Manns, Aunt Ethel Manns, Aunt Bessie Manns, my grandmother Chatherine Manns, and one more Aunt (not sure of here name).Also the uncle names were, Uncle John, Jessie, and Uncle RQ (Robert Quincy) and uncle Jim.All are decease.My mother can only remember back to my great grand-dad.She never spoke of any brothers, sister.Which she may not have known any of them, keep in mind my mother was the only child born to the youngest daugther Catherine, in 1928.

As your family.All of my great uncles and Aunts of the Manns family were also very fair.They too could pass for A jewish family, etc.They all were very nice looking, the aunts had long beautful straight and wavy hair. Uncles were handsome, Tall, curly hair, and women chased them from every where.The Aunts that I can remember were so pretty, stood no more than 5'2'inches tall.They were petite, small frame.One aunt, the one I can not rememeber her name, had long natural reddish hair.

One thing to this whole story is, the only town I amaware of is Navasto, TX near houston,tx.I understand my great grand dad lived there until his death and raised the manns childern there until they were married and moved away from home.
So, Gail I think I am back yo square one.Good Luck
