I can't see this marriage on freebmd :-\
You really need the certificate to get details of her father.

Hi,
Where did you find the details of the marriage? Like Rosie I am unable to find it in the marriage index.

off ancestry tree, thanks for looking will keep trying, i may have to start on her children maybe something will come up that way,

As stated in the previous posts there isn't an obvious marriage for her, and I can't see a birth registration in Berkshire either assuming that's where you believe she was born. If there is no Jones / Knight marriage then at this point you don't actually know who she married to be able to trace the children.
There really is no substitute for the actual certificate but initially why not see if you can locate her in the 1891 / 1901 census records. A clue to her birthplace, parents etc could give you the start you need.

Hi,
I have looked at various 1891 & 1901 census records for Blodwin Jones born about 1890 and would you know it, with names like hers, there are numerous listings around 1889-1891 in Wales.
Its not reliable to get info from the trees on Anc....y as many have just copied the info from one tree to another as if it is legitimate, many times without any sources of info.
Do you have any other detail which we could use?
I looked on Anc...y but couldn't find any suitable tree.

I can't see her marriage on an online tree either :-\
Maybe you can tell us a bit more about John William Knight. Where/when was he born and what information you have for him in 1911.

Hi,
FreeBMD has 2 possible Jones/Knight births that match some of the details given:

Hi,
There is a public tree on Anc….y showing a J W Knight with a birth date of 8-2-1896 in Battersea, Middx and married to Elsie Jesamine Radway on 4-4-1920 in Tottenham, Middx. They are showing the exact same date & place of death as you list.
They are also showing a photo of J W K and there is also a copy of the original marriage entry showing the full details.
Where are you getting your info from? as it seems the dates are identical to what you mention.
It could be they are mixing up the various “Knights” and coming to the conclusion they are all the one family.
On FreeBMD there is an entry for a JWK birth registration in the Mar ¼ 1896, Fulham Reg. Dist Vol;1a, Page; 333. Could this be the one?

"Davis Family Tree" & "Bambey Family Tree" without the quotes.
If you have a subscription to;
