HILL, MANUEL, WORRELL -
I am looking for any information that anyone might have about Mary Hill Manuel who was living in Carroll Co. VA, in 1870 with children, Martha, Alexander, Elizabeth, and John Manuel. She also had another daughter living with her in 1870, but I don't recall her name. Mary Ann Hill Manuel died in Carroll Co. VA in 1893, of cancer. She was married to Philemon Manuel who preceded her in death sometime much earlier, as she was listed on the 1870 Carroll Co. Census as Head of the Household. Her son Alexander Manuel married Sarah Isabell Worrell. Anyone having any information about this family I would surely like to hear from you. I did find some photos of the Worrell family, so I was hoping perhaps someone in that family might have information about Mary. Thanks
