I think I have now found Esther's baptism as HOLTOM on 29th March 1809 at Condicote to a William and Mary which fits with a William KNIBB/Esther HOLTHAM marriage at Lighthorne on 24th June 1828.

If you do obtain the marriage certificate for Thomas BUDD and Esther KNIBB, could you please share with me her father's name?  She had first married William KNIBB c1832 I would guess.

Do you have her as dying 04qtr1884 Walsall District?  She was still with Thomas on the 1871 census (indexed as RUDD at ancestry) and a widow in 1881 at Elford.  She was born at Condicote but quite when is hard to tell because her age in census returns seems to vary somewhat.

I haven't picked up Thomas' death either.

Surely John KNIBB's burial must be Jun 1825 if I have the correct date of his Will as 29 Mar 1825. His age would then indeed be 67.

I had his baptism as 25th not 26th Apr 1758.

Thanks Sandy, glad to have that cleared up, and I will send Alan a copy of the image from the parish register (John KNIBB/Lucy BELLAMY, 13 Nov 1785).

Some further data and one or two further corrections:

Lucy KNIBB: (1) baptized 12 Sep 1786 NOT 18 Sep 1786.
(2)  died 13 Nov 1826 and buried 13 Nov 1826 NOT 16 Nov 1826 (dates are from the headstone at Polebrook, but register says buried 13 Nov aged 40). Her age is also given on the headstone, but illegible when I looked at it years ago -- now given the further information it might be possible to make it out.
(3) married William BELLAMY 12 Oct 1772.

Thomas KNIBB: buried 5 March 1788, presumably less than a year old.

Rebecca BELLAMY wife of William BELLAMY died 12 Dec 1799.

Further Polebrook baptisms:
26/12/1745 Lucy daughter of John and Prudence ROWELL
25/4/1747 William son of Adam and Mary BELLAMY
25/4/1758 John son of Thomas and Alice KNIBBS

Further Polebrook burials:
2/2/1805 Rebecca BELLAMY wife of William BELLAMY
12/3/1814 Mrs Alice KNIBB, Armston, aged 68
19/6/1823 John KNIBB aged 67

Hope all this helps and that I haven't made further slips in transcribing

Thank you very much.  Very helpful.

Please can we just clear up a couple of points.  I had been given the date of the John KNIBB / Lucy BELLAMY nee ROWELL marriage as 13 Nov 1785.  Is that definitely wrong? - seems strange that different specific dates quoted.  Also is date of her marriage to William BELLAMY available and both their baptisms?

I have conjectured that John KNIBB was the one bp26 Apr 1758 at Polebrook as KNIBBS to Thomas and Alice BAILEY nee HUNT (she a widow at marriage), the first of 10 children born to the couple.  If the same, this John was a farmer/yeoman of Armston who died 15 Jul 1825 unless that is the date that Adam KNIBB, his miller brother of Barnwell, was sworn in as his executor (as opposed to the date he swore that John actually died).  Perhaps a burial record exists that would resolve.  The Will was dated 29 March 1825 and Elizabeth BELLAMY, John's housekeeper was bequeathed the house and an annuity, his wife Lucy having presumably died beforehand.

He named his daughter Lucy CHEW in the Will so we can be sure that the testator is the one who married Lucy BELLAMY nee ROWELL.  His son Thomas KNIBB b Armston bp25 Feb 1788 Polebrook must have died as Lucy was said to be his only child.  She was to die the following year according to what we now know.

Perhaps best to contact me direct at jackari2@aol.com if more KNIBB info required.

Do you have anymore info. on the Newbold Avon Knibbs please?

This is what I have put together.  I found William as LEASON, a widower, on the 1861 census at ancestry and hence conjectured death dates of his wife and himself.  First a listing then a family group - I haven't 'placed' William at the head of the tree:

OK folks, do you buy this?

The K/NIBBs in Harbury date from earlier times.

An Elizabeth KNIB was baptised at Newbold Avon on 15 Jul 1792 to William KNIBB & Mary nee PEGG.  To the north is Harborough Magna, not that far from Hilmorton.  I had no trace of that Elizabeth until now.  Her brother James was at Lutterworth in later years.  Sister Sarah still unaccounted.

Re the 1814 marriage, I see she is given as NIBB in the IGI.

The search continues.
