Basil Manly

Basil Manly, Jr. (1825-1892) was a southern Baptist teacher and preacher. He was born December 19, 1825, in South Carolina, and his family moved to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, when he was twelve years old. There he was baptized at age 14 after reading a biography of Jonathan Edwards and he was licensed to preach the gospel at age nineteen. He then enrolled at Newton Theological Institution but left for Princeton Theological Seminary when the Southern Baptist Convention was formed. The Newton school had been affiliated with the rival Northern Baptist Convention.

Manly graduated from Princeton in 1847 and with John Albert Broadus, William Williams, and James Petigru Boyce was instrumental in the formation of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Greenville, South Carolina. (In 1877 the seminary moved to Louisville, Kentucky.)
