History

edit

Manning was named for Martin Manning, who took up a land claim there in 1865.[3] Manning post office was established in 1890.[3] In 1954, the community joined with neighboring Buxton and Banks to form the Tri-City Rural Fire Protection District (now Banks Fire District).[4] The Manning school, part of the Banks School District, closed in 1987.[5]
