Listing of Cleveland area churches and pastors, but I don't see Thomas listed.  Maybe it was a later calling.

I found a dif site with priest/vicar names and couldn't find him either....strange

Obituary of sister Carrie Johnson: 

Name: Johnson, Carrie
Date: Mar 21 1941
Cleveland Necrology File, Reel #042.
Johnson: Carrie, beloved wife of Elvin L. Johnson, daughter of Mrs. Thurza Knight and the late Edward, sister of Frank, Edward and Rev. Thomas Knight, Tuesday, March 18.  Services Friday, March 21, from the Gospel Tabernacle, E. Grace st., Bedford

It appears that Thomas had become a Reverand by 1941.

Thanks

I wonder if Thomas took the service himself?

Gospel Tabernacle, E. Grace st., Bedford....maybe this is where he did surmons.

There seems to be another sibling--Frank, mentioned in Carrie's obituary.  He seems to be Frank Bryan Knight, b. March quarter 1884, Bosworth.  I don't have access to the UK censuses, but he seems to be in the same area as Edward and Thirza for the 1901 and 1911 census.  He may have married either Ellen Katherine Sanders, or Alice Sheen, in the March quarter of 1909.  You might look them up and see what kind of family profile is developed.

Obituary of Edward Knight (the younger)

Name: Knight, Edward
Date: Aug 1 1958
Cleveland Press;  Cleveland Necrology File, Reel #124.
Knight, Edward, d. July 39, husband of Bertha (nee Hartsorn), father of Mrs. Alma ??and Mrs. Marjorie , and grandfather, brother of Thomas Knight.  ( may still be alive)

The above obit doesn't list Frank, so he must have died between 1941 and 1958.

Obituary from same source as above:

Name: Knight, Thurza
Date: Oct 23 1949
Cleveland Necrology File, Reel #046.
Notes: Knight, Thurza, d. Oct 20,  beloved wife of the late Edward, mother of Frank (deceased), Edward, Mrs. Carrie Johnson (deceased) and Rev. Thomas Knight.

Frank dies between 1941 and 1949.

Deaths Dec 1943 
   
Knight  Frank B  age, 59  Market Harbrorough  vol 7a  pg 15

Could this be him?  The age is correct and he is in the same area from whence the other family members were registered.
