Position:Home>Genealogy> Does anyone have any information about the father of Absalom Knight?


Question:He was a soldier during the Revolutionary War, sometimes his name was spelled Absolum, or Absolom, and he had a son and nephew by the name of Absalom (with it's various spellings) as well. I've seen his father listed as Thomas or David, or Thomas David but can find no info about him, or Absalom's mother. I have no name for her at all.

thanks very much.

Elizabeth Simpson 1748-1860 (approximate)
Thomas Knight 1740

Look up Simpson genealogy

If he lived 1754 - 1818, a number of people on RWWC have him.
