For Rebecca, reply No. 36
My name is Tony Drew and my wife was a "Knee" before our marriage. She is a direct descendant of Daniel Knee of Stroud, a widower who married Elizabeth Wicks on 2.2.1805 - he was believed to be in his fifties then because burial records show a Daniel aged 69 interred on 2.11.1819.
There were 4 children of the marriage, Mary (1805), Martha (1807), Daniel (1810) and George (1812). Martha and George are believed to have died early - Martha (1809) and George (1813).
Daniel was convicted at Gloucester Assizes in 1826 and transported to Australia for life, where he raised a family with Mary Ann Mantle (nee Hulks) a widow - and theire are numerous Knees now around the Newcastle, Maitland area of NSW.
If this is of interest let me know.
