Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I assume you don't know the parents names? Roots Ireland had two records in 1873 in Co. Leitrim for Michael McManus. One was an illegitimate child and the other had parents Terence McManus and Mary Farrell. There were other records in years around 1873. Any other clues?

i don't have an accurate date of birth - just 1873- although I will get one in mid March when I travel to Worcester MA. I did find his parents names- Father : James Edward McManus
Mother: Mary McHugh There is no parish or town of birth listed for James or Mary I hope this is helpful

1870. See transcription of baptismal record below. His civil birth record is here. https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_retur…
You will need to sign-in to see the record. It is the seventh record on the page. The family lived in Tullynascreen townland in Killanummery civil parish. From baptismal records, it appears that Michael was the oldest of twleve children some who died earl: Michael 1870 Ellen 1872 Anne 1874 John 1877 James 1878 Ellen 1881 Bridget 1883 Patrick 1885 Winifred 1887 Peter 1890 Winifred 1891 Mary Elizabeth 1892
I could not find the family in the 1901 census in Tullynascreen
