Rev. Newton Mann (1836-1926), born in Cazenovia, New York, was a Unitarian minister in Wisconsin, New York, and Nebraska. At the outbreak of the Civil War he was appointed head of the Western Sanitary Commission, with which he served until the end of the war. He then entered the Unitarian ministry, and in 1865 organized the Unitarian Church in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where he was ordained and where he served for three years. Then followed a pastorate of two years in Troy, New York, and in 1870 he accepted a call to Rochester, where he remained eighteen years. His last charge was at Omaha, Nebraska, where for twenty years he ministered to a substantial congregation. He wrote Evolution of a Great Literature (1905), introducing scholarly biblical criticism to general readers.
