A deed to John Manning Sr., from Thomas Whyte (Book 6, p. 158), we believe, might well prove that Thomas White, who came to Virginia in 1637 with one Thomas Sawyer who was granted land in the Lower Co. of New Norfolk on the eastern branch of Elizabeth River, was the father-in-law of John Manning, Sr., father of his first wife Mary, mother of Mary Manning, wife of Roger Hodges.6.

In tracing the lineage of Elizabeth Etheredge, wife of John Portlock I and the mother of John II we go back to the little nest of new-comers in which the Manning resided a century earlier and find that with the marriage of James Hodges I and Mary Portlock the families of several neighbors on Gaythers Creek joined hands.8.
