Knight of Grendon
« on: Saturday 02 July 16 19:34 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I am looking for baptism entries for Job Knight and Ethan Knight from the Grendon parish registers.  They are sons of George Knight and Elizabeth (nee Summerfield).  In the 1851 Census Job is listed as 8 and Ethan 3.  In 1861 they are 19 and 13 respectively.  Ethan shows up in Ciivil Registration born Mar (qtr) 1848, but there is no entry in Civl Registration for Job.

Thanks,
Steve

Here are the rest of the Knights of Grendon from 1841 and 1851- sorry for the formatting it's come out of my spreadsheet and is an amalgamation of a number of available source files. It lists 1841 first followed by 1851 for each person- lower caps is 1851 only. Missing is William who married surname CORBY at Easton Maudit in 1827 groom parish Grendon
 Note that I don't have birth places for George 1803 or Samuel 1801 - Grendon is shown as residence only. I can't find any baptism for a George in 1803 or a Samuel in 1801 anywhere in my Northamptonshire collection (fairly comprehensive) and no Knight baps or burs in Grendon before the arrival of this family.
My one name study covers approx 1750- 1850 (mostly census records only post 1812 except for my own branch of Knights) but the version I am looking at may not be the most complete file.

Ethan is baptised 19 May 1850, son of George and Elizabeth.

There's no Job baptised in Grendon other than the son of Samuel Knight which genechaser gave you, who is older than yours. And who was buried 4 Sep 1839, aged 2 months.
