Family:Unknown Knox and Unknown (1)

Possible Knox Relationship

Based upon the following record in Augusta County, Virginia records, there appears to be a relationship between Solomon Knox and Susanna (possibly Knox), wife of David Scudder from Sussex County, Delaware:

• Vol. 2 - Knox vs. Knox--O. S. 151; N. S. 53--Bill, 12th January, 1810. Complainant Elisha Nocks (Knox) that in 1773 his father, Solomon Nock (Knox), was appointed administrator of Susanna Scudder in the Colonial Government of Counties of New Castle, Kent and Sussex on Delaware. Solomon removed to Virginia. Susanna left three children, viz: Susanna, Camfort and Aby by her husband, David Scudder. Complainant had a brother Nehemiah. Elisha moved to Virginia after 1775. Mary Scudder married Thomas West. Solomon owned land in Rockingham and died in May, 1803, testate. William Knox of Bath County was son of Solomon.

It is thought that Solomon Knox may be an older brother of Susanna wife of David Scudder. Additional research is needed to prove this relationship.
