Susanna WOOLCOCK married to James KNIGHT
« on: Monday 22 August 11 21:05 BST (UK) »
Looking for parents of Susanna Woolcock and James Knight who married on July 1, 1832 in Calstock.  They had a son William Henry Knight born 1842 or 1847.  William died September 14, 1911 in Ishpeming, Michigan and his death record lists an approximate birth year as 1847.  His obituary also didn't give any better information.  Through some searches, I believe James and Susanna were his parents.  Hope I'm on the right track.  Thanks for taking a look at this request.

think the birth will have been 1842 or earlier as he was baptised in 1842

http://www.cornwall-opc-database.org/search-database/more-info/?t=baptisms&id=1128466

Working from Susannah's age on the 1851 census, this could be her baptism

There is a Henry W Knight born Calstock as well, who would tie in with an 1847 date, as he was born at the end of 1846, mother also Susannah

. There are two children  John  1838 and Mary Anne  1837.

Mary  Anne married John Sincock in 1882  i Twyardreth
John Sincock married  Mary Ann Woolcock in 1861 in St Austell

A sister and brother married a brother and sister
