Membership in the Knowles/Knoles/Noles Family Association is open to all descendants of
any Knowles progenitor (all spellings of the surname) or any allied family line. You do
not need to be a member of the Association to attend the Reunion and Conference. The
Evansville events include a tour of local Knowles sites, discussions concerning Knowles
genealogical research, a review of the results from the Knowles Surname DNA Project as
well as social gatherings for meeting your Knowles kousins.
Association Membership: $15 dues/year
Publications: Periodic Newsletters, DNA Reports and Knowles research updates
The Association has a private library, sponsors the Knowles Surname DNA Project, holds
biennial Reunion and Knowles Genealogical Conferences during even number years, has
100,000+ Knowles & Knowles descendants identified in a genealogical database.
Focus: The research for Knowles (all spellings) and the collection of documents and
publications for Knowles genealogies and Knowles family histories are from anywhere in the
world, but are predominately for Knowles in the U.S., Canada, England, Scotland, and
Ireland. The Association has identified and is researching more than 100 different
Knowles progenitors, some dating back to the 16th century. All Knowles genealogical data
collected is maintained in hard copy form and in a computer database. Access to the
genealogies is normally restricted to members. However, the Association will exchange
genealogies and family histories with descendants of any given line, without the
membership requirement.
