Charity Knight
« on: Friday 11 July 08 14:44 BST (UK) »
Hello

Having a little trouble tracking CHARITY KNIGHT born abt 1866 in Holme, Huntingdonshire. The family moved to the Rochdale area and the only possible find i can come up with after this is a Charity Knight marrying in the Bury District in 1894 to either a Thomas Marsh or a Frederick William French....

....However no record can be found of her under the Knight, French or Marsh records on the 1901 census.

I just hope she isn't one of those ancestors who go missing.

Thankyou

Jonathan  -  it sometimes works if you leave out the surname altogether and use just the first name, date and place of birth - especially with a more unusual name like Charity  ;)
