Can anyone check CD ROMS of Leicester/Rutland stray marriages, please?
« on: Saturday 01 June 13 19:38 BST (UK) »
Hello, would anyone be able to check the above CD for appearances of the Knapp/Knap/Napp family from as early as possible up to 1775? I am trying to find a family move from Leicester to Northants or vice versa. Thank you. Sarah

Sorry about the colour!
And thank you for the information. I´m starting to get a quite good picture of the 18th century Knapps in the area. I should have said Leicestershire instead of Leicester, as my family are from the border with Northamptonshire/Rutland (in the direction of Uppingham and Corby). I also only bother with males at the moment. But there are also some possible family members in the Burrough on the Hill/Knossington area. Having found some non-stray Phillimore´s listings of Leicester on archive.org it seems our Northants Knapps will end up having Leicestershire ancestors.
Thank you both for your quick replies.
Sarah

I have some Knapps as my ancestors, from the Stathern/Eaton/Eastwell area. I also have them travelling to Kibworth to either marry or act as witnesses at other Knapps' marriages. This was in the 1820s to 1870s, so it was quite a distance on foot, horseback or by train if they had the money. However, I have checked both the churchyard and cemetery at Kibworth (Beauchamp I think) and there are none at all, or least none in marked graves that I could see.
