BIOGRAPHY: From: "Daniel Popek" <kmfdmdan@earthlink.net> To: "William Knight" <williamknight57@yahoo.com> Subject: Curnel Knight #650 on your website Information Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2003 20:25:56 -0700 The following is some information/corrections on Curnel Knight #650 on your website. Sorry for the delay. Curnel is my great-great-great-great grandfather.

Curnel (also spelled "Colonel") Knight died in the town of Glocester in Providence County in Rhode Island(Gloucester in Essex County is in Massachusetts). He married Elizabeth (also known as "Betsey") Wilcox. I don't know the source of your birth record for her, but she was the daughter of Stephen Wilcox and Anstress Stone, and she was born about 1799 in West Greenwich, Kent County, Rhode Island instead of Newport. The Wilcox Family goes back a couple of generations in West Greenwich, R.I. Elizabeth died on April 3, 1862 in Coventry, Kent County, Rhode Island.
