I'm looking for information on the MANUEL, also spelled EMANUEL family in Sullivan
County, IN in the mid 1800s. I have an ancestor, Nicholas Manuel who moved from NC to
Sullivan County, IN at somepoint during the 1800s. I am sure he is related to the Nicholas
Emanuels present in Sampson County, but I cannot place him directly there. My Nicholas was
married to a woman named Meady. They had a daughter named Mary (called Polly) who married
Samuel CALAWAY in Sullivan County in 1856. I believe Nicholas was born about 1795. Samuel
Calaway was born in January 1838 and was a farmer in Haddon Township according to the 1900
Federal Census. I'd like to find information about his life and death if possible. Any
information or help would be great. Also looking for any cemetery or will records on these
families.
