Hello, again, zooze/Sue -
In working on my Devon Knight and Spiller families, I am finding several different generations of Knights in and around Yarcombe, Devon marrying Spillers there. So, you and I might eventually have a connection.
So far, the most recent Spiller I have is a William Spiller (no parental information on him yet, or birth/death dates) married 11 May 1814 at Yarcombe, Devon to Mary Knight (b. Aug 1792, Yarcombe, Devon; d. 1824), with a daughter, Jane Spiller (no other information yet on her, either.) William appears to have been Mary's 2nd husband.
Mary Knight's paternal grandmother was a Joan Spiller (b. 8 Aug 1725, Yarcombe, Devon; d. 18 Apr 1784, Yarcombe, Devon) married 26 Dec 1749, Membury, Devon to Benjamine/Benjamin Knight (b. 19 Feb 1716, d. 29 Apr 1789, both at Yarcombe, Devon.) Their son, Joel Knight (1751-1837, both at Yarcombe, Devon), was the father of Mary Knight, wife of William Spiller.
Mary Knight's maternal grandmother, Winifred Spiller, was an older sister to her paternal grandmother, Joan Spiller.
So . . . I guess Mary Knight Spiller, wife of William Spiller, was her own cousin?!?
Let me know if you would like more of my Spiller and Knight information.
