GREENVALE COMMUNITY IN MANDEVILLE MANCHESTER

At the beginning of the 19th century, the idea that the hilly districts standing
between the parishes of Vere and Clarendon in the East and St. Thomas in the
West could become a parish was conceived. It was this idea that started the
breaking up of the larger parishes - Clarendon, Vere and St. Elizabeth - to form
the new parish of Manchester in 1814. During the 18th century, coffee growing
started and the suitability of the atmosphere and terrain in these hilly districts

out their religious, civic, administrative and judicial
needs, as the closest public building was 40 miles
away. It was not until this petition was made by the
residents that these districts became constituted as a
separate parish, by law- Act 55 George III. c. 23, passed in 1814 to come into effect in 1815. This act stated that
the “hill country” comprising the Eastern portion of St. Elizabeth and the Western portions of the Parishes of
Vere and Clarendon be constituted as a separate parish. Named after the then Governor of colonial Jamaica,
the Duke of Manchester, the parish of Manchester finally came into being on December 13, 1814. The
Manchester Vestry, the governing body of the Parish, met for the first time July 4, 1816, where discussions
