William Manning WILLIAM MANNING {circa 1592 - circa 1666) left Essex, England, with his wife and child, William, and came to New England with Thomas Hooker's flock in 1634. They lived in Roxbury for several weeks before deciding to settle in Cambridge. William joined Shepard’s congregation sometime before he became a freeman on 13 May 1640. He subsequently lost his wife and married a second Susana who died in the fall of of 1650. In 1664 Manning moved to Boston with his third wife, mentioned in his will of 1665 written about a year before his death. He seems, however, only to have had the one boy, William, who became a prominent merchant, raised a family of five, and, with his wife, Dorothy entered into full communion with the Cambridge church before 1658.
