Hello,and happy new year. I stumbled upon this area while looking up my ancestors--the Mann Family of Washington D.C. I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. I believe I am a direct descendent of a Rachel Mann, who was the mother of Jane Mann who married Rev. John Francis Cook. It is possible that Joseph Mann, who is my 3rd greatgrandfather, is related to Rachel Mann. Joseph Mann had a daughter named Rachel, who married a Mr. Savoy, a page in the government, who was honored by the government.
I know I am rambling, but I am really excited, since I have been trying since 1977 to gather my family lineage. I am most interested in what I have read from your writings. Is it possible we can converse by email, so I can get an idea if the people you have researched are my people also?
Thank you in advance for whatever your decision, and I hope to hear from you very soon!
