Solomon and Mary Ann Knight had six children, mainly in Norwood nr Croydon, Surrey.
- 38.2.1 - William Knight (1811-1883)
- Married Elizabeth Hewlett (1810-1873) in Tooting Graveney, Surrey in 1834.
- He started out as a butcher but by 1851 had moved to a roadman/highway labourer; but was a retired butcher in 1871. I think it's the same William as the children are consistent.
- They lived in Powell's Row, Norwood; later Knights Hill Square. This may not be a coincidence - lots of the family lived around here, and I've learned that it's family tradition that the area is named after the family.
- Children:
- Maria Elizabeth Knight (1835). Maria died in 1849.
- Elizabeth Maria Knight (1837)
- William James Knight (1838)
