Biography
- she is distinct from "Mo[u]rning Dove White Mancill" who was a different person and apparently the wife of her supposed son William.
- NOTE: there is no reliable source yet found for the parents of William Mansell.
Family tradition holds that Mourning Flowers Mancill was born about 1773 in South Carolina, and was the wife of Edward G. Mancill, Sr. (1760 - 1840) and that they came to Alabama from South Carolina in December of 1817, and that she died in Covington County, Alabama in 1840. They were supposedly among the first settlers in the Sanford, Alabama community.
- More information about the origins of this family tradition is sought. Thank you.
She is said to be buried in an unmarked grave at Mancil Cemetery #1 in Sanford, Covington County, Alabama.[1]
