A linked research profile for a person named in the claimed MacManus pedigree.

What remains unknown
The extract gives Elizabeth’s first name but does not explicitly state her surname, dates or residence. A surname or identity should not be assigned solely from the claimed paternal relationship.
The date 22 February 1774 belongs to the nobility claim discussed in the archive, not necessarily this person’s lifetime. Philip McManus questioned parts of the pedigree, particularly its attempt to connect different McManus branches.
