He died on 15 Apr 1890 in Worcester, Worcester Co., MA.108 The following is the obituary for David Manning as published in the Worcester Evening Gazette 15 Apr. 1890, Page 5: The many friends of David Manning Senior, will be pained to hear of his death which occurred at his home No. 9 Ashland Street at 8:40 this morning. He had been confined to the house since last August and the end seemed to be due to a general breaking down of the system. Mr. Manning was born in Sutton, New Hampshire, 78 years ago yesterday. He came to Paxton as a boy of 15 or thereabouts and went into the boot and shoe shop of Lakin and Bigelow. He learned the business with this firm and at the age of 25 started a factory of his own and had a successful business career. Later he was in the same business in Leicester and Worcester. He came to this city in 1847, and his shop for a long time was on Pleasant Street, just where Rogers Block now stands, and afterwards across the street in Taylor's brick building. He retired from business in 1875 and has since lived quietly here. He was married to his present wife 52 years ago in Paxton. She was Miss Lucy B. Grosvenor, daughter of Jonathan Grosevenor Esq. who was one of the leaders of the town, a large farmer and one whose judgment was consulted by his fellow townsman in business matters. Two years ago Mr. & Mrs. Manning celebrated their golden wedding and their children and grandchildren assembled to wish them happiness. Mr. Manning was a man of strong convictions and was a pronounced anti-slavery man. He was one of the original Free Soilers and later he was a Republican, but his strong feeling in the temperance cause led him to join the third party a few years since. He was a familiar figure at the polls and for several years he had distributed Probition ballots to show his interest in the cause. He has been a member of the Union Church for a great many years joining it during the pastorate of the Rev. Dr. Smalley, father of George W.Smalley. Mr. Manning leaves a widow and six children of whom one is Mrs. J.A. Titus The others are George G. and Theodore who form the firm of Manning Brothers, wholesale boot and shoe dealers. David Manning Jr. well known in local politics and at the bar; C. Walter and Joseph A. who are in the wholesale and shoe business in Boston. 1850 MA cn Worcester Co.
