I have seen a Cemetery Record from Fort Hill Cemetery(Cayuga County), Auburn, NY it states: Joseph d 24 May 1910 in Oneida NY Minnie Knapp d 2 Jun 1932 in Auburn NY I have been given by my family, the names Minnie Rommel and Joseph Knapp as my great grandparents. I need to validate all info. on these two. Suggestions, assistance and information is welcome. Kathy

FYI, This was sent to me from Ginny. I can't identify the Knapp/Conover union, but the others are in the "NKG". -Stephen ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sat, 26 Sep 1998 18:05:01 -0400 From: Virginia A Buechele <[email protected]> To: "Jean C.

Dear Thomas: Got your message, and am doing some research on this. John Knapp had 8 chlildren. By way of a lookup in Winona, MN, I know that one son Sylvanus Knapp b. 11/9/1848 died in Winona County, MN at age 12 on 4/4/1860. Jessie the oldest according to census data was born in English Canada, 11/6/1832. I will continue to look, also, William B. KNapp, sixth child, b. 4/1/1846 was born in Michigan, according to 1910 census in WI. When I find out more, I'll let you know, if it looks promising. Recors in MN such compared to WI, so it is difficult at best, to even find death notices. greg lampman >>> Thomas Cornell <[email protected]> 8/26/98, 01:12pm >>> To Greg Lampman and Patricia Knapp: Any idea when John Knapp 1/25/1805-1/20/1884 may have moved to MN/WI? My 5xGGF, Samuel Knapp, had a son John D. Knapp who could have been born around that time. Samuel married a second time in Jul. 1799 and had a daughter first, then John. Samuel was b. 1737, by the way, and probably would not be having regular children like a younger man. Samuel lived at Warwick in Orange Co., New York, and I believe son John was there at least through 1850. Wish I had more information about him. I need to look for him in the NY census. Tom Cornell

On Thu, 24 Sep 1998, EUGENE W. HELMS wrote Yes, what great fortune it was to find Rubygene Knapp, sound of mind and body at age 97! And good fortune to receive your commentary on the "bound boy" terminology. I appreciate your clarifying the distinctions between indenture and apprenticeship. I believe Ezra Knapp's status must have been an apprenticeship, from what you wrote. But I was not aware that these agreements would have typically been made by the father. Do you have any idea at what age a carpentry apprenticeship would have begun? Yes, I would very much like to see the explanation of the legal origin of the term "indent", if you don't mind. If you want to post it on the Knapp list, maybe others would be interested, too. ***Per Gene's request, I will post the "historical" information requested on the subject of indenture as a legal term as its origins. (This is probably an appropriate followup to the posting several months ago concerning the "Oath of a Freeman.") Salt this one away in your "history notes"! The information below is from "Black's Law Dictionary", 6th edition, 1990. "INDENTURE /indentyer/. In business financing, a written agreement under which bonds and debentures are issued, setting forth form of bond, maturity date, amount of issue, description of pledged assets, interest rate, and other terms." "INDENT, v. To cut in a serrated or wavy line. In old conveyancing, if a deed was made by more parties than one, it was usual to make as many copies of it as there were parties, and each was cut or indented (either in acute angles, like the teeth of a saw, or in a wavy line) at the top or side, to tally or correspond with the others, and the deed so made was called an "indenture". Anciently, both parts were written on the same piece of parchment, with some word or letters written between them through which the parchment was cut, but afterwards, the words or letters being omitted, indenting came into use, the idea of which was that the genuineness of each part might be proved by its fitting into the angles cut in the other. But at length even this was discontinued, and eventually the term served only to give name to the species of deed executed by two or more parties, as opposed to a deed-poll (q.v.). 2 Bl.Comm. 295." "DEED POLL. A deed which is made by one party only. A deed in which only the party making it executes it or binds himself by it as a deed. It was originally so called because the edge of the paper or parchment was "polled" or cut in a straight line, wherein it was distinguished from a deed indented or indenture." -Stephen

Just thought I'd ask if anyone knows of a Rebecca E Knapp who married a John Lord on Jan 12, 1838 Cuyahoga Co, OH? Not my direct line, but my Hugh Lord from The Isle of Man had a brother John Lord who also moved to Cleveland, Cuyahoga Co. OH. Just wondering if it could be him. Greg

Mary...and Fritz..... Thanks for the data on Silas Knapp. I'll check the data when I'm in Salt Lake City in two weeks. My friend had Guion data back to Louis Guion, Sr, of France, abt 1654 and wanted to extend her Knapp line. She comes down via Susannah/Asher Merwin. This addition data will please her. Thanks again..... -- .....Wayne Howell..... ...Port Townsend, WA.. [email protected]

Barb, You were very kind to relate your conversation with the descendant of William Wyatt. I am also a descendant but thru his daughter Mary Jane Wyatt who m. William Henry Whitaker 10 June 1851 in Manatee Co., the marriage was considered the first in the Co.. William Henry Whitaker is my G. Grandfather, William Wyatt would be my G.G.Grandfather. According to "The Lures of Manatee", William Wyatt was born in Kentucky married "Mary" in Ky. migrated to Leon Co. in 1826. He moved to Manatee probably during the year of 1843, and was considered the oldest settler to come to Manatee, being about the age of fifty. He was known as Colonel Wyatt. The children I have are: 1. William H. Wyatt b. 1816 in Kentucky m. Elizabeth Ann Glazier, 31 Oct 1852 in Hillsborough Co. Fla. 2. Louise Ellen Wyatt b. 1823 Kentucky m. Elbridge Augustus Ware 18 July 1842 in Leon Co. Fla. 3. German Hanse Wyatt b. by 1826 either in Kentucky or Fla. m. Mary Ann Fife 1 Sept 1851 in Hillborough Co. 4. Mary Jane Wyatt b. 11 April 1831 in Tallahasse. Fla. m. William Henry Whitaker 26 June 1851 5. Margaret Wyatt m. Micheal Ledwith( all I know) My concern with the info related to you is that Nancy Catherine Stewart b. 21 Feb 1817 would have been only 14 when Mary Jane was born and also the dates of the other children. I have not been able to connect this family of Wyatt's with Haute Wyatt of Va. but anything is possible. What is interesting is that "she has lots of papers to show". There is probably so little info on these Wyatt's that this could be a gold mine of info. If I can help I will be more than glad to. My wife I plane to be in Fla. next June for my sisters 80th birthday and plane to spend time in Bradenton, and Sarasota trying to run down more info on other members of the family. Again, thank you for putting this info out, this is first I have run into info on this branch of the Wyatt's since I started this project 4 years ago. Dick Wilson
