William Knight (1835-1901+)

William Knight was born about 1835 in St German's, Cornwall, and died after 1901. He was the son of James Knight and Fanny Lean. He married Maria Facey in 1859 at St German's. She was born about 1833, and died after 1901.

In 1841 he is with his parents at Glasdon, St German's, Cornwall. He is then a farm servant at St Germans in 1851. I have not yet found him in 1861 but in 1871 he is a farm a labourer at Beny, St Germans, Cornwall Dist 8 with his wife and family. In 1881, 1891 and 1901 he is at Culmeer Village, St Germans, Cornwall Dist 8 and between 1881 and 1891 he is still an agricultural labourer. In 1901 he is a carter on farm.
