although there have been several posts on the Knight family due to emails received from descendants of this family in Dorset.

I planned to look at the Dorset parish registers that have come up on Ancestry in particular Spetisbury, Winterborne Stickland and Turnworth. Today I did Spetisbury from 1780 to 1812 and will return to work on Spetisbury from 1700 to 1779 on the next research day.

On the previous research day I did build families with the material but will wait until I have made all the extractions from all the parishes before redoing. It will be interesting if I can solve any mysteries with this information. I am confident going back to Henry Knight and Mary Oliver as Eleanor's parents but is William also a descendant of Henry Knight (father of Ellis)?
