Manning Burials (and Some Related) in West Hill Cemetery, Dalton, Whitfield County, Georgia
Manning and Related Burials, Selected
West Hill Cemetery
Dalton, Whitfield County, Georgia
Family Burial Plot of Alexander Manning and family is in Section M of West Hill Cemetery
MAP URL: https://www.google.com/maps/@34.7681462,-84.9825923,17z
Section M is directly behind the fenced-in section that comprises the Confederate Cemetery (not designated on the Google Map). There are about 91 family plots in that section, each with room for five-to-twelve graves. Most are rectangular, about the size of a kitchen or small living room (about 12 x 15 feet). Corner plots are smaller. Most of the plots have graves, but are not full. The Manning family plot is a rectangular plot near the front/east side of Section M. It has only three marked graves in it, and a lot of unused plots. There might be at least one unmarked grave in it, not sure. The three marked graves are Alexander Manning, Reese Manning, and James W. Russell. There is an extra monument (cenotaph) for Alexander and Reese Manning.
Below is my map of the section just south of General Thomas Drive. General Thomas Drive continues east and ends at a point where it meets West Cuyler Street.
Section M has room for I only saw one depression that might be an unmarked grave, but I'm no expert. In my opinion, there should be at least one more grave there -- that of Josephine Manning, whose name does not appear in the Whitfield County, Georgia, Cemeteries Book (compiled by Whitfield-Murray Historical Society), but it should. Josephine was listed as a widow in the 1920 census, and she still had the surname of "Manning." She died in Chattanooga on October 24, 1920. According to her obituary in the North Georgia Citizen (Dalton, Georgia), her body was brought back to Dalton for burial at West Hill Cemetery. The other grave sites are probably empty. William Felton Manning and wife, Myrtle, are buried in Section B (northeast of Section M, not shown on my map). Some of the family moved to Chattanooga and are buried there; and the rest moved on to Alabama and Arizona, and are buried in those states.

There are other Mannings buried at West Hill Cemetery, but not of this specific family group.
