Pam,
Children of David B. Knight, as taken from 1850 census, are William, 17;
Nancy Jane, 15; Rhoda Samantha, 12; John, 9; Cyrus, 9; Dennis, 7;& James,
4. Also listed in the home was Ephraim Clemens, age 12. I have a Cynthia,
19, mar to John Engle/Ingle,32, & son Martin, 3/12 given in the same
census. I cannot explain the Mary Engle, as I've only begun to research
Mary Boyle, sister of Jonathan Boyle.
I do want to get to Auburn and research in the Library and Court House
there.
David B. Knight's mother might possibly be Mary Knight, 72, living with
James, 31, in the 1850 census as the dwelling number on the census are in a
cluster or group.
Hope this gives you a clue or sends you in the right direction.
Nancy

Nancy:
Just read your reply to Sue. I also am hunting for David B. Knight. He
is my
g grandmother's father. They moved to DeKalb Co in 1836 or so
from Knox
Co,
OHIO. My g grandmother was Samantha Rhoda Knight and she was born in
1837.
Do you know the names of all the children?
I would love to know David's parents names and if they were from Penn.
and
where. Also, I have record (on Samantha Knight Hull's death
certificate)
that
her mother was Mary Engle, not Mary Boyle which I have seen. Do you
know
anything about this.
Hope you can help me.
Thanks, Pam
