Dear Pauline I have just come across your post in 2005 about the Knowles family of Bollington, Cheshire. I am also very interested in them and have been taking a close look at them this evening. On the 1861 Census as well as the widowed Mary Knowles and her family, also in the household at Water Street on that night is Ralph Knowles, widower aged 67 'lodger'. Ralph Knowles is my gggg grandfather. He married Mary Pheasey in Bakewell in 1815 and later moved to Macclesfield (close to Bollington). Mary died in 1858. Although Ralph is listed merely as a lodger, I strongly suspect that he was in fact Mary Knowles (head of household) brother in law. I believe that Mary's husband Robert who was also from Bakewell may have been Ralph's brother. Robert Knowles m. Mary Matkin in 1813 in Bakewell and they had numerous children born in Bakewell, Derbyshire and Youlgreave, Derbyshire, later moving to Bollington. There is a Joseph Knowles of Bakewell who married a Dorothy Matkin in 1816 and they also moved to Bollington, Cheshire. I suspect that Joseph may be another brother of Ralph and Robert. When Ralph Knowles died in 1870, a person named Hamilton registered the death. I have found two marriages in Bakewell, in 1822, where a Jane Knowles married a Jonathan Hamilton and a Rebecca Knowles married a Daniel Hamilton(Daniel Hamilton later moved to Macclesfield). I think Jane and Rebecca may be sisters of Ralph, Robert and Joseph. Hope you can reply - Carol

Hi Pauline This is another Pauline. Do you know the parents of your Ralph and Robert. Could they possibly be children of Robert and Sarah of Alport? Siblings of Hannah and John?

Dear Pauline Thanks for getting in touch No unfortunately I do not know who Ralph's parents were Knowles is a fairly common name and I have not found anything on the IGI that gave me a clue Did Robert and Sarah of Alport have sons named Ralph & Robert - if so were they siblings of Hannah and John? Did Hannah and John end up in Cheshire also ? Sorry to be vague but I am stuck with Ralph. Shame the other Pauline did not reply as she was definately looking at the same family as me and I hoped she may know something more to help me get farther back. Also I think Alport is in Derbyshire near Bakewell ?

No. I haven't got any other siblings, apart from John and Hannah but Sarah Knowles nee Marshall's parents were Ralph and Rebecca Marshall. I too was clutching at straws. Cheshire and Derbyshire are not that far apart.
