My Great x3 Uncle Frederick (1882 - 1882) was the youngest brother of my Great Great Grandmother Grandmother Mary Ann 'Polly' Boobier (nee Manning) (1869 - 1916).
Frederick was born in around early to mid February 1882 in Exeter, Devon to William Manning (about 53), a general labourer, and Mary Ann Manning (nee Ireland) (about 42), a laundress.
Frederick was baptised on 17th March 1882, in St Leonard, Exeter.
Frederick was the youngest of nine children (five daughters and four sons):
- Emma 1865 - 1866 (11 months old)
- William 1868 - 1920 (51 years old)
- Mary Ann 'Polly' 1869 - 1919 (48 years old)
- Kate 1871 - 1916 (46 years old)
- Rose 1875 - 1877 (2 years old)
- Samuel 1877 - 1877 (11 weeks old)
- James 1878 - 1887 (8 years old)
- Unnamed Daughter 1880 - 1880 (0 years old)
- Frederick John 1882 - 1882 (6 weeks old)
Sixteen years before Frederick was born, his oldest sister Emma had passed away, aged eleven months old, in 1866.
Five years before Frederick was born, in August 1877, his older siblings two-year-old Rose and eleven-week-old Samuel both passed away. Did they both succumb to the same illness?
Another older sister - a unnamed baby girl - passed away on the day of her birth in 1880.
Around March 1882, Frederick himself passed away, at six-weeks-old, in Exeter.
He was buried on 26th March 1882, in St Leonard, Exeter.
His older brother, eight-year-old James, passed away in 1887.
