Anthony KNIGHT/Mary SINCOCK

[ridder72]

There seems to be 2 Anthony Knights (b.1773-1855) both of which marry a Mary in this time frame.
I'm searching for the Anthony Knight who married Mary Sincock in Roche, Cornwall.
I descend from Anthony(1773-1855) his son James(1815-1883) his son Henry(1854-1910). Henry emigrated to Australia.

On http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#
Anthony Knight married Mary Sincock 7th  June 1802 at Roche Cornwall.
Interestingly a John Knight married Elizabeth Sincock 14th Sept 1759 at Illogan Cornwall (my computer on a go slow so can't look that up for you quickly to see how far it is from Roche.)
There are the details of at least 3 other children I can see to Anthony and Mary at Roche.
2 Anthony Knights born Roche - one 1773, another 1771 - different mothers and fathers. Good luck!

Did you see them in the 1841 and 1851 census at FreeCen
Maybe that will help you sort out which ones is yours

Cheers for the info,

I already have most of the info, its just that when I try to look back further in other peoples trees they tend to mistake the Anthony Knight/Sincock, for Anthony Knight/Hore/grose.
Goldie61 thanks for the link.

OHOH is it possible Anthony Married 2 Marys, both GROSE and SINNOCK ??

What Census entries do you have for Anthony if you have him dying 1855?
There are 2 in 1841;
1 married to Elizabeth
1 a Tin Trimmer? living next door to Anthony age 45 and Wife Ann and Family
I presume the second is yours?

So here we go again.
I hired a researcher to investigate the true Anthony Knight.
The following are common assumptions:
Anthony Knight (son of Jas. & Blanch) married Mary Hore 1793 (Roche)
(d) Elizabeth 1794/5
(s) Anthony 1798
(d) Dorothy 1800
(s) John 1803
Mary Hore dies in May 1803
Anthony(widower) remarries a Elizabeth Grose in Jun 1805
they produce 8 children
 
2nd Anthony Knight (son of Joseph & Elizb.) marries Mary Sincock in Jun 1802
 (s) William 1805
(s) Benjamin 1809
(s) Joseph 1810
(d) Mary Ann 1813
(s) James 1815

Discrepancy is that there are no baptismals to Mary Knight (Sincock).
Who's to say that Mary Knight (Hore) died in 1803???
Isn't it very possible that Mary nee Sincock died in 1803 and that Anthony and Mary nee Hore survived to produce ALL 9 children.
In saying this Elizabeth nee Grose married the 2nd widower Anthony.

the 1st Anthony was illiterate,
 whereas the 2nd wasn't, and signed both the 1802 and 1805 Marriage certs.

Upon further scrutiny the Witness to marriage 1805 was a John Thomas, the same John Thomas who married a Jane Sincock in 1770, perhaps a coincidence, who knows.

In summation,
 I believe Anthony and Mary Hore endured 9 children.
2nd Anthony married Mary Sincock then Elizabeth Grose
