I am trying to find the children of the above who I believe married Elizabeth Avi(e)son on 22 August 1810 in Norton. I have (my GG grandmother) Elizabeth b1811,bapt Feb in Birdsal but cannot find any other children. 1841 and 1851 census shows them with children but I believe they are too old to be the parents (1851 has William b1837 and shown as grandson)
Any help as always greatly appreciated.

Here is the 1851 referred to (to save us all looking it up)
1851

Edward Kneshaw 67 ag lab bn Slingsby
Elizabeth 59
William 14 grandson bn Norton

1841
Rosedale East,Lastingham
Matthew Kneeshaw 40 Blacksmith
Mary 30
John 12
James 10
Matthew 8
Elizabeth 6
William 4
Thomas 2
Elizabeth 75 all bn in county
(not sure this is the William from 1851 though)
Where have you found them in 1841? Cant spot it

Hi Lizdb
sorry should have put the census details on. The 1841 census has them in "Street, Norton, Malton":
Edwd Kneshaw 55
Elizabeth 50
Edwd 15
Sarah 10
Willm 4
I think these are grandchildren - see William in 1851.

William is - as per 1851
Cant see any reason to suppose the others are, Edw and Eliz are not too old to be the parents. In fact pushing it a bit to have a 15 yr old grandson by 50 . They may be, or they may be Edw and Eliz's children, or they may not be either, but some other link! 1841 unhelpfully doesn't give relationships.
