Knight family of Croydon
« on: Saturday 04 June 11 09:11 BST (UK) »
Am looking for info on any Knight families that were living in any of the following roads in Croydon in the 17 and 1800s:-

Gloucester Road
Gloster Road
Bridge Terrace
Lambert Place
Cross Road
Cherry Orchard Lane (Road)

Have particular interest in John Knight 1780/1 married to Rachael and his father Henry Knight married to Ann.

It is possible that Henry was the son of Christopher Knight and Elizabeth Williams of Farnham. They appear to have had three children:-

Henry 1751
James 1754
William 1757

I have been unable to find a marriage record or baptism for Christopher and nothing to link the family to Croydon. If anyone has any info on the Farnham knights, it would be much appreciated.
