Huntingdon look up request

[Roy Bartley]

I'm looking for information on the Knight/Newman family.
William Knight and wife Sophia, formerly Newman, were living in St. Ives when their son Harry was born 22/11/1845. At that time William was employed as a Groom.

Many thanks

Roy

Can't seem to find these people on the 1861 Census Roy,  but have found the marriage of

William KNIGHT and
Sohpia NEWMAN
In 1842 in Romford
September Quarter 12 312

You can order this marriage certificate online at

www.1837online.com

quoting the information above.

It will cost £7.00 and take about 3/6 days to arrive.

Happy hunting ??

Hi Roy

If they married in Essex - perhaps they were born there - how about this couple from the 1871 census - St George Bloomsbury  London   

William Knight abt 1805  Saffron Walden, Essex, England Head 
Sophia Knight abt 1814  Stock, Essex, England Wife   
George Knight abt 1858  Wapping, Middlesex, England Son   Mary A J Knight abt 1854  Wapping, Middlesex, England Daughter 
 
I think Harry had a son Harry W born 1869 in Wapping so that would fit too
