Downe Court Manor and Downe Hall
Downe Court Manor Statutory Listed – Grade 11
There is an early deed referring to Downe Court Manor dated 1287. The present building dates from around 1690. Years ago it was surrounded by ponds which tend to suggest the original manor house could have been moated. Sir Thomas Mervyn owned the house in 1518 and was Lord Mayor of London. When he died he left one penny to each prisoner in the London gaols. One time owner was Sir Thomas Smyth who was governor of the East India Company and Treasurer of the Virginia Company.
Another owner was Henry Manning Marshal of the Household under Henry V111 and Queen Elizabeth is believed to have attended the christening of his daughter Margaret in 1559. Parish Register records the ceremony took place ‘after ye Queene’s visitation’.
Then came Jacob Verzillini an Italian from Murano, near Venice who took over a glass-making factory in Crutched Friars in London around 1571. He was granted a 21-year licence to make drinking glasses providing he taught his skills to Englishmen and did not import the glasses.
He was very successful and bought quite a lot of property in the area. There may be as many as nine of his glasses remaining. V and A has one so does the British Museum. Windsor Castle and another at Cambridge and several are abroad. One was dropped at auction. When he died he bequeathed ‘cloth to 6d a yard for a new coat for all villagers to attend my funeral’.
Downe Hall –Locally Listed
There has been a building on this site since 1290. Originally named after Richard Godarde the building was named ‘Goddards’. Sold to the Manning family in the 14th century. It was originally of flint and stone and some windows were made of horn. The Mannings were the oldest and most distinguished family in Downe. Some were among the first to emigrate to America where even today there is the Manning Association.
According to the Hearth Tax in 1645 there were 8 taxable hearths. The largest number in the village. After the Carew family came the Sandys, the last of whom died in 1694, and in 1698 Sandys widow married the Earl of Eglintoun – she was 96 at the time.
In 1820 the house burned down and the present building erected. One time owned by the Lubbock family it has been considerably restored in recent years.

Knight Marshall of the King's Household
The Knight Marshal is a former office in the British Royal Household established by King Henry III in 1236. The position later became a Deputy to the Earl Marshal from the reign of Henry VIII until the office was abolished in 1846 .[1]
The Knight Marshal and his men were responsible for maintaining order within the King's Court (Court of Marshalsea or Palace Court) which was abolished in 1849.
According to The Present State of the British Court, published in 1720,
- "The Knight Marshal is an Officer employ'd in the King's Court or Marshalsea, and the Marshal's Men under him are properly the King's Bailiffs. They arrest in the Verge of the Court {i.e. within a 12 mile radius of the Sovereign's palace} when a Warrant is back'd by the Board of Green-cloth. The Knight Marshal and his Men have place in all publick Cavalcades, at Declaring of War, Proclaiming Peace, publick Entries and Processions made by the Soveraign."
The Knight Marshal was appointed by the Crown for life by letters patent under the great seal frequently in the form of grants in reversion. Board wages were fixed at £21 5s 10d in 1662. In 1685 a salary of £26 was provided. This was raised to £500 in 1790 but reduced to £271 in 1816.
The separate office of Knight Marischal exists in the Royal Household of Scotland, but has not been filled since 1863.
The Mannings of Downe Court Kent
The Mannings were the most distinguished of the earlier families of Downe. They are described by Edward Hasted to come from Mannheim in Saxony, and to have come to England before the Conquest. John Manning died in 1542. His eldest son, George, married in the following year, and his second son, Henry, some twelve years later. The third and fourth sons, John and Richard, lived and worked in London.
Henry Manning was Knight Marshal, or Marshal of the Household, under Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary, and Elizabeth. The Downe parish register records that Margaret, one of Henry's daughters, was baptized on November 30, 1559, ' after ye Queene's visitacon'.

The entry of Margaret's baptism in 1559 is the last referring to Henry and his family in the Downe parish register until that of the death of his wife in 1596. He sold Downe Court in 1560, so that he presumably left Downe for Greenwich in that year. His widow may have come back to end her days at Downe, perhaps with her eldest son Henry, whom she made her executor and heir.
Phillips of Orange Court, whose name runs from the earliest registers included George Phillips who in 1771 established a trust to educate children in the village, this was later supplemented by Sir John William Lubbock

He was very successful and bought quite a lot of property in the area. There may be as many as nine of his glasses remaining. V and A has one so does the British Museum. Windsor Castle and another at Cambridge and several are abroad. One was dropped at auction. When he died he bequeathed ‘cloth to 6d a yard for a new coat for all villagers to attend my funeral’.

According to the Hearth Tax in 1645 there were 8 taxable hearths. The largest number in the village. After the Carew family came the Sandys, the last of whom died in 1694, and in 1698 Sandys widow married the Earl of Eglintoun – she was 96 at the time.
Sir Henry Manning Knight Marshall of the Household To King Henry VIII
Henry Manning (Marshall of the Household) [Parents] was born in <1524> in of Downe, Kent, England. He died in <1593> in England. He married Catherine Kirkener.
Catherine Kirkener [Parents] was born in <1524> in East Greenwich, Kent, England. She died < >. She married Henry Manning (Marshall of the Household).
They had the following children:
F i Mildred Fortune Manning F ii Margaret Manning M iii Thomas Manning was born on 28 Mar 1556 in Down, Kent, England. He died on 20 May 1591. M iv Henry Manning
Henry lived in Downe and East Greenwich, Kent and London. He worked for a while as a young man as an armor maker, probably in the shop of his father in law, Erasmus Kirkener, at East Greenwich. Under the expenses of Henry VIII for Sep 1531 is an item of £8.19 to 'Henry Maynering for making the king's arms'.
Symon is the earliet known ancestor of the Manning family of Kent. The Mannings are said to be descended from an ancient and noble family which took its name from Manning, a town in Saxony, from whence they came into England before the Norman Conquest. Also, some of them are said to have settled in Friesland. John Silvester of Westerham demised land to Simon De Manning in the 14th year of King Richard I (1202). Simon De Manning is supposed to have been engaged in the holy war against the Saracens under King Richard I, that is, the Third Crusade, 1189 to 1192. Simon De Manning died in the time ofKing Henry III (1216-1272).
The Visitation pedigree of the Manning family has Henry's grandfather, Hugh, married to the aunt of Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk, that is, a daughter of Sir William Brandon. No documentary evidence of this marriage or any relationship can be found. Probably there was some more remote relationship that gave rise to the legend. If true, she would have to have been one of the two Margarets, daughters of Sir William Brandon and Elizabeth Wingfield, and there would have been a royal lineage thru the Wingfields. Hugh and his wife died early and that helps explain the lack of records for them.
His father, John Manning was the eldest son, and is said to have first married Thomasina Trady by whom he had one son; and second to Agnes Petley, who gave him four sons and one daughter, Joan. He is the first of the Mannings who, in the
several deeds relating to land transactions, is specified as of Downe. He is
also styled YOEMAN.

also styled YOEMAN.
Immediately after the death of his father in law, he succeeded to the office of Queen's Brigander, (Chief Armourer, thereby keeping the office in the family. About 1566 Dame Anne Parry, widow of Sir Thomas Parry, knight, assigned to Henry Manning, gentleman, the office of Keeper of the Royal Park at Greenwich, in Kent. She held this benefit for the term of the life ofSir Henry Fermingham. For this, Henry Manning agreed to pay Edward Thomas £11 per year in four installments to be paid at the feasts of the Birth of Our Lord God, The Annunciation of Our Lady, The Nativity of Saint John the Baptist, and Saint Michael the Archangel. For this rent he was to have the fees, commodities, herbage, use and other benefits of the park as long as he so continued. Henry made his payments as agreed until the Feast of Saint Michael the Archangel in 1570. About 12 days before this feast day Sir Fermingham died, ending the patronage apparently originally granted to him. She quickly sought to have the office regranted to herself, but failed in the quest. The office was then granted to Sir George Howard, knight, who must have agreed to continue the lease with Henry Manning, for he thereafter made his payments fo Sir George.Edward Thomas demanded his rents and eventually about 1578 brought suit in the Court of Requests. The outcome of the suit is not recorded (Court of Requests, 26:149) Henry Manning is styled in the Visitation pedigree as 'Marescallus Hospitii'Henry VIII, Edward VI, and Queens Mary and Elizabeth. The Knight Marshal, called MARESCHALUS HOSPITII REGIS, had jurisdiction and Cognizance of all crimes within the royal palace, whereunto one of the partied is the King's servant. He is one of the Judges of the court called MARSHALSEA or MARSHAL-SEAT of Judicature, which is held in Southwark, and had there a prision belonging to the same. Upon solumn occassions he rides before the King with a short Baston tipt at both ends with gold, and had six Provosts Marshals or Virgers in scarlet coates to wait on him, and to take care of the Royal Palace, that no beggars, vagabonds, common women that prostitute their bodkies, malefactor, etc. come within or near the court.
Henry and his brother George were granted arms and a crest on 20 Apr 1577. George Manning married Joan Walls, on 13 Aug 1540 in Downe, Kent, England. His will, written 30 April 1583, proved 16 May 1583, mentions his wife, Joan, and sons,Thomas, John, George, William and Peter. George and William "Should be sent to writing school for one year, then apprenticed for eight years and then receive 50 pounds each". Thomas and John "should be given 50 pounds when their apprenticeship expires". He mentions his daughters, Elizabeth Greene, Anne Brownhall, Catherine Underhill, Joan Welch,Dorothy and Phebe. Dorothy was to get £30 when she married. Phebe was to be sent to school under the tuition of Dorothyduring the term of six years and was to receive £30 when she married. He mentions brothers, John and Henry. The overseers of the will were Richard Brownhall, Hugh Underhill, and Griffin Greene.
Henry's daughters were well married. Margaret married first to Henry Ludlow and secondly to Thomas Howard, first Viscount Bindon. Anne married Joshua Aylmer, who was steward to Thomas Howard, his wife's brother-in-law. Dorothy married Edward Heydon of Maiden Bradley, Wiltshire, Gentleman. Mildred married Thomas Whitfield.

Civil War Battle of Middle Creek, Eastern Kentucky
(2240 present; 1967 effective Jan. 2)
US: Eighteenth Brigade - Col. James A. Garfield (At least 2100)
Casualties: CS: 10k; 14w; Total = 24
US: 2k; 25w; Total = 27
Confederate Units Present:
5th KY (Col. John S. Williams); 29th VA (Col. A.C. Moore); 54th VA (Col. R.C.
Trigg); 34th VA Cav Bttn (Lt.Col. W.E.Simms); VA Mtd Rifles Co (V.A. Witcher);
VA Battery (Capt. William C. Jeffress); Company (Holliday); Mounted Companies
(Captains Clay & Thomas)
Union Units Present:
14th KY (Col. L.T. Moore); 22nd KY; 40th OH (Col. Cranor); 42nd OH (Garfield's);
Squadron OH cavalry (Maj. McLaughlin); 1st KY Cav (6 co., Lt.Col. Letcher)
Advancing on December 23, 1861, Col. James A. Garfield led an expedition of over 2000 federals from Louisa toward Paintsville with the intention of driving Humphrey Marshall's Confederate force out of Kentucky. Monitoring the federal advance, Marshall posted his line of battle on the hills along Middle Creek to receive them. Garfield's force appeared about 10 am, but dispositions were not made and fighting did not begin until noon.
According to Marshall, Thomas' and Clay's companies were dismounted and posted on the Confederate left on the opposite side of the creek along heights commanding the plain of Middle Creek. Jeffress' four guns, supported by the 54th VA, Witcher, and Holliday, held the center. The 5th KY and 29th VA comprised the right of Marshall's line.
Three volleys from Jeffress' artillery scattered an early advance of Union cavalry on the center. They were not seen again, at least in mounted formation. The troops on the left were never threatened, and never fired a shot. Most of Garfield's efforts were against the Confederate right. Attesting to a supply of faulty artillery ammunition, Garfield stated that many of the Confederate shells did not explode.
The engagement lasted some four hours until Garfield withdrew down the creek, through Prestonsburg, and back to Paintsville from whence they had come. Garfield reported a successful campaign after retreating to the safety of Paintsville. He estimated Confederate losses at 60-85 killed besides the wounded. Marshall claimed victory, along with severe federal casualties, up to 550, well beyond their official reports. The casualties, as officially reported by each side, were 10 Confederates killed and 14 wounded; 2 federals killed and 25 wounded.
After pursuing Garfield a short distance, Marshall likewise retreated deeper into Floyd County starting the next day, in search of subsistence, which was scarce in the mountains that winter season. Also noteworthy, Marshall said that there were no overcoats and few blankets in the command.

"Vile Miscreant" Sylvester Manning 1874 Letter
Letter, 30 March 1874
Written by Isabella (Belle) HARPER BERTRAM to her sister Sarah (Salie) HARPER LYON in 1874. In it she tells about the fascinating pursuit and capture of a "vile-looking miscreant", Sylvester Manning. Belle is a widow. Her husband Peter Bertram was killed at the battle of Shiloh. Amelia/Miel is her sister, Amelia HARPER. Alec is the name of Amelia's husband and her son. Unfortunately only one page of the letter survives.
March 30, 1874, Bertram's Corner, Lewis Co. Ky.
Dear Sallie,
We have got trace of the goods and have arrested some of those concerned in the business. Ten horses were stolen from Tollesboro about ten miles from here, and a constable, Hiram Warder accompanied by Nat. Toll went in pursuit forthwith and were only about 6 hours behind. It so happened that one of the horses had on a peculiar shoe, easily distinguished from all other tracks and they got on the trail which they kept day and night without difficulty. They found the place where they stopped, and the first thing they saw was the horses. A girl was standing in the yard, who vanished the instant she saw them and in a few minutes two men came out and made for the hills.

Written by Isabella (Belle) HARPER BERTRAM to her sister Sarah (Salie) HARPER LYON in 1874. In it she tells about the fascinating pursuit and capture of a "vile-looking miscreant", Sylvester Manning. Belle is a widow. Her husband Peter Bertram was killed at the battle of Shiloh. Amelia/Miel is her sister, Amelia HARPER. Alec is the name of Amelia's husband and her son. Unfortunately only one page of the letter survives.
March 30, 1874, Bertram's Corner, Lewis Co. Ky.
Dear Sallie,
We have got trace of the goods and have arrested some of those concerned in the business. Ten horses were stolen from Tollesboro about ten miles from here, and a constable, Hiram Warder accompanied by Nat. Toll went in pursuit forthwith and were only about 6 hours behind. It so happened that one of the horses had on a peculiar shoe, easily distinguished from all other tracks and they got on the trail which they kept day and night without difficulty. They found the place where they stopped, and the first thing they saw was the horses. A girl was standing in the yard, who vanished the instant she saw them and in a few minutes two men came out and made for the hills. They rode up to the door asked for their dinner and asked to buy cattle. After a good while finding the men did not return, they told their errand plainly, took possession of the horses, the saddle packets, and overcoats, which were hanging out in the yard to dry (it had been raining), and came home. Of course I can't go into the particulars of their trip. It was hazardous, and exciting, but accomplished in safety. There in the saddle packets was found a pair of shoes stolen from us.

Downe Court/Downe Hall-Kent,England
Downe Court Manor Statutory Listed – Grade 11
There is an early deed referring to Downe Court Manor dated 1287. The present building dates from around 1690. Years ago it was surrounded by ponds which tend to suggest the original manor house could have been moated. Sir Thomas Mervyn owned the house in 1518 and was Lord Mayor of London. When he died he left one penny to each prisoner in the London gaols. One time owner was Sir Thomas Smyth who was governor of the East India Company and Treasurer of the Virginia Company.
Another owner was Henry Manning Marshal of the Household under Henry V111 and Queen Elizabeth is believed to have attended the christening of his daughter Margaret in 1559. Parish Register records the ceremony took place ‘after ye Queene’s visitation’.
Then came Jacob Verzillini an Italian from Murano, near Venice who took over a glass-making factory in Crutched Friars in London around 1571. He was granted a 21 year licence to make drinking glasses providing he taught his skills to Englishmen and did not import the glasses.
He was very successful and bought quite a lot of property in the area. There may be as many as nine of his glasses remaining. V and A has one so does the British Museum. Windsor Castle and another at Cambridge and several are abroad. One was dropped at auction. When he died he bequeathed ‘cloth to 6d a yard for a new coat for all villagers to attend my funeral’.
Downe Hall –Locally Listed
There has been a building on this site since 1290. Originally named after Richard Godarde the building was named ‘Goddards’. Sold to the Manning family in the 14th century. It was originally of flint and stone and some windows were made of horn. The Mannings were the oldest and most distinguished family in Downe. Some were among the first to emigrate to America where even today there is the Manning Association.
According to the Hearth Tax in 1645 there were 8 taxable hearths. The largest number in the village. After the Carew family came the Sandys, the last of whom died in 1694, and in 1698 Sandys widow married the Earl of Eglintoun – she was 96 at the time.
In 1820 the house burned down and the present building erected. One time owned by the Lubbock family it has been considerably restored in recent years.

Down Court or Downe Hall-Publication The History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent: Volume 2
THE MANOR OF DOWNE-COURT, with the scite of it, in the reigns of king Edward I. and II. was the property and residence of Richard de Downe, who lies buried, with his wife Margery, in the chancel of this church, but without any inscription on his grave stone, the brass having been torn from it. This family was extinct here before the middle of the next reign of king Edward III. when the Petle's of Trowmer, in this parish, were become lords of it. John Petle of Trowmer, esq. died possessed of it in the 18th year of king Richard II. in whose descendants this manor continued down to John Petley, esq. (for so the name began now to be spelt) who lived in the reign of king Henry VIII. He died without male issue, leaving by Christiana his wife, daughter and heir of Thomas Philipott, four daughters his coheirs; John Petle, the ancestor of this family, was settled at Downe, in the reign of king Henry III. and bore for his arms, Argent, two bends ingrailed, a canton sable. His son, Richard, left two sons, of whom John, the eldest, was possessor of Downe manor, in the reign of king Richard II. as above mentioned; and Richard left two sons, John, ancestor to those of Halsted, now extinct, and William, ancestor to those of this name seated at Filston, in Shoreham, now likewise extinct, and those of Riverhead, in Sevenoke, now remaining there. John Petle, eldest son of Richard, married Juliana, daughter and heir of William Troumer of Downe, by whom he had Thomas Petle, who died in the 9th year of king Henry V. and lies buried with Isabel his wife, in this church. His son, John Petle, married Alice, daughter and coheir of James Brampton, by whom he had John Petley, who lived in the time of king Henry VIII. and left four daughters his coheirs, as above mentioned. (fn. 1) Of whom Agnes, the eldest, was married to John Manning, esq. of Downe, who, on the division of their inheritance, became en titled to it. (fn. 2) He was descended from John Manning, who was of Cowdham, and died in the 14th year of king Henry IV. leaving John Manning, his son, who by Juliana, daughter and heir of Richard Brockhill, had Hugh Manning of St. Mary Cray, who married the daughter of Sir William Brandon, by whom he had two sons, of whom Richard, the youngest, settled at St. Mary Cray, where his posterity continued till within these few years; and John Manning, the eldest, married Agnes Petley, as above mentioned. (fn. 3) He died possessed of it in the 35th year of king Henry VIII. and lies buried with Agnes his wife in this church. His descendant, Peter Manning, esq. of Trowmer, in the reign of king James I. alienated this manor to Palmer, and in 1657 it was in the possession of John Palmer, whose son and heir, Michael Palmer, in 1662, sold it to Mr. Richard Glover, from whom it descended to Mr. Richard Glover, merchant of London, whose daughter marrying James Gladhill Vernon, esq. intitled him to the possession of it, and he is the present owner of it.
But the seat itself, formerly called DOWNE-COURT, but since DOWNE-HALL, which passed, together with the manor, to John Manning, in right of his wife Agnes, one of the daughters and coheirs of John Petle, as before mentioned, was, by his son, Henry Manning, esq. of Greenwich, separated from the manor, and sold by him to Sir Francis Carew of Beddington, in Surry, who some time afterwards alienated it to Mr. Ellis of London; from whom it passed by sale, in the reign of king Charles I. to Col. Richard Sandys, third son of Sir Edwyn Sandys of Norborne; the second son of Dr. Edwyn Sandys, archbishop of York, by Cicely, daughter of Thomas Wilsford of Cranbrooke. Henry Sandys, the eldest son of Richard above mentioned, by Hester his wife, daugh ter of Edwin Aucher, esq. of Wilshorough, was of Downe-court, and married Catherine, widow of Sir John Kay, bart. and daughter of Sir William St. Quintin, bart. by whom he had Jordan Sandys, esq. who passed away Downe-court, by sale, to Rich. Oldner, esq. of Exton; and he a few years ago alienated it to Thomas Omer, esq. who left it by will to his grandson, Thomas Omer, esq. the present owner of it.

John Burnett of Aberdeen Scotland
I am related to John Burnett through my ancestor Meridith Manning who married a Catherine Burnett in Franklin County,Virginia in 1796!
John Burnett of Aberdeen
The Burnetts and Their Connections (Volume One) tells about the first Burnett who came to the American Colonies in 1638.
......... . . . . . .
John Burnett was christened 25th of December 1610 at St. Nicholas Church in Aberdeen, Scotland and died February 1686 in Old Rappahannock County, Virginia, age 76.He was buried at the Burnett Plantation Cemetery in Virginia.

He was the son of Thomas Burnet and Margaret Johnston and Thomas was son of John Burnet and Isabel Burnet, all of Aberdeen..
THOMAS BURNETT - born about 2 Sept. 1574 in St. Nicholas, Aberdeen, Scotland. He married MARGARET JOHNSTON, 8 Nov. 1608 in Aberdeen, Scotland. She was born about 1575 in Scotland. Some have the parents of Thomas listed as John, born abt 1548, and Isabel Burnett, married in 1573 in St. Nicholas Parish, Aberdeen, Scotland
The most asked question is, “Did our Burnetts descend from the “Burnet of Leys” or the “Burnet of Barns?” The answer is most likely the “Burnet of Leys.” The Barns family inhabited the southern region of Scotland in Burnetland and the Leys family in the north. Our John was a man of wealth and importance to be commissioned by Charles I, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland.
On the 13th of March, in the year 1638, King Charles I granted a Charter to John Burnett, a Commission To Trade In Virginia, to wit: “Warrant from the King to the Governor of Virginia or other officers whom it may concern for JOHN BURNETT of ABERDEEN the SOLE MERCHANT OF OUR KINGDOM OF SCOTLAND that hath supplied the plantations of Virginia and become our tenant there and his factors to have free commerce and traffic between Scotland and Virginia upon paying the usual customs and entering into bond to unlade [unload ship] anywhere other than in the ports of Scotland.”
So, John Burnett was a Merchant of Aberdeen and had previously supplied the plantations of Virginia with goods from Scotland and England and on the return trips, carried cargoes of tobacco to Great Britain. The wording of the above warrant suggests that King Charles I, trusted John Burnett to stand with him as “His Tenant and Sole [only] Merchant to the American Colonies. What an honor! John Burnett loved the king and named a son after him. John also named a son THOMAS after his father and another son was named JOHN (II) after his grandfather..
The Johnstons of Aberdeen were a family of wealth and influence and was greatly connected to the Burnetts. Not only was John Burnett’s mother a Johnston, but he was married to Lucretia Johnston. Lucretia was christened in St. Nicholas Church on 22 March 1629 and died Oct 1709 in Essex County, Virginia and named her second son, Thomas as her heir. Among items listed in her estate inventory was yardage of “Fine Scotch Linen” and various types of gowns, including a “riding gown, a tamine gown and a head-dress with yellow lace and a yellow top knot on it.” She bequeathed the latter to her daughter-in-law, Amy Gatewood Burnett. Her son John II owned a violin.

Mannings From Ireland?
Manning
Manning is a family name. Manning is a family surname which is particularly prevalent among those of Irish descent.The Manning family descends from the 37th King of Ulster, North-East Ireland, who ruled until around 450 A.D. This King was very wealthy and was, therefore, called the Maoin, which translates as riches or wealth. The Clan of Maoin was said to have been converted to the Catholic faith by Saint Patrick himself. Sometime between the 10th and 13th centuries many of the Maoins crossed the English Channel and settled in Southern England on the Kentish Coast and, according to English Law, they were forced to give their name an English form: they chose Manning, others chose Mannion. Manning is also the name of a Galway family who were formerly chiefs of Sodhan, a district nearly co-extensive with the barony of Tiaquin. O'MainnÃn, Kind of Sodhan, is mentioned in the Chronicon Scotorum as early as the year 1135, and the O'Mainnins continued to form a distinct clan down to the time of James I of England. The chief resided at Menlough Castle, in the parish of Killascobe, Galway. In 1617, Hugh O'Mannin surrendered his estates, but a small portion of it was restored under the Act of Settlement in 1676 where the name is still common in Galway and Roscommon, and has spread into other parts of Ireland.

John Mannen Pioneer at Fort Boonesboroughhn
Pioneers at Fort Boonesborough
Madison County, Kentucky
1775
Sketch of Fort Boonesborough
J. T. Dorris
Glimpses of Historic Madison County, Kentucky
This list of verified pioneers at Fort Boonesborough was compiled by H Thomas Tudor, Registrar of the Society of Boonesborough and furnished compliments of the Society of Boonesborough by James J Shannon Jr. One of the settlers was John Mannen.
John Mannen listed as a Mason County Distiller of Whiskey in 1797
Taxation on whiskey was a controversial topic in early America, especially on the frontier, which, in the late 17th century, of course included Kentucky. Look up “Whiskey Rebellion” on Google to read a lot more about it. The law taxing whiskey passed in 1791, and it was not until 1798 that one William Clarke, a federal attorney, began prosecuting those who hadn’t paid the tax. The court docket gives us the names of lots of folks in the whiskey distilling business in those early days. Keep in mind that Mason County is much larger during this time than it is now!
John Mannen In Mason County
The 1810 census in Kentucky lists a John Mannen in Mason Co.
On 22 Sept. 1812, John Mannon and Thomas T. Worthington served as witnesses for the will of John Watson. Note that a Thomas Mannen married Thomas Tolley's daughter Rachel; she was born in 1800. I've seen his birthdate listed, unsourced, as 1798. Note that a Thomas Mannen exists, aged 51, married to a Susan, aged 42, in the 1850 census for Mason Co. The fact that Mannon and Worthington appear together here suggests a family relation.
A John Mannen married Charity Critchfield (Crihfield, Crhfeld) in Mason Co. in 1814. A sergeant "John Mannan" served in Capt. Dowden's company of Pogue's Kentucky Volunteers in the War of 1812; he enlisted Aug. 27, 1812 to Sept. 26, 1812. Another "John Mannan" served as a private in Robert Crutchfield's detachment of the Virginia Militia (a pretty big coincidence with the marriage of 1814!). A Thomas H. Mannen also served in 1812, in the 40th Kentucky regiment, as a Major.
In 1819, a John Mannen is listed as leaving an estate in Mason Co., and as having left a will. (Is this supposed to be 1822--as below?)
The 1820 Census from Mason Co, Kentucky seems to be key here, though without further help it's just a list of names. There are several groups living near each other: Jas Pollock, Jos Pollock; and then several lines later, all as heads of household: Jno Mannon, Sra Perkins, Jas Mannon, Jno Mannon Jr. What might help, if it is possible, is to look at deeds for land.
A John Mannen Sr. died in in 1822. His will lists the following as his family, including John Sr. and eight children; no wife is named (presumably she pre-deceased him):
John Mannen, d. Summer 1822, Mason Co., Kentucky
| James Mannen, b. before 1801
| John Mannen, b. before 1801
| Elizabeth Mannen, b. before 1801 (m. William Thomas on 26 Feb. 1816 in Mason Co., KY)
