      He lived in Watertown, Sudbury, Woburn,
      and Charlestown, Massachusetts.

      John sailed from England and it is believed arrived in Boston Bay in
      1635 with his wife Mary and four children born to them to that time.
      The following history involves another John who settled and died in
      Newbury, Mass. who is believed to be a relative. He is also believed
      to be from a contemporary family. "John and his brother Richard sailed
      aboard the ship JAMES. Both were tailors and settled in Newbury, MA."

      Other Marriage: "The "Genealogical and Personal Memoirs", FHL974.4D2c
      indicates that John Sr. was married to Ann Ingersoll, widow of Richard
      Ingersoll who died in 1644. They were located in Newbury. He was
      identified as John Jr.'s father. John Jr. married Bathsheba, a daughter of
      Richard Ingersoll, according to the account in the reference." The Newbury
      Knights are believed to be a separate family but possibly related to them
      back in Ramsey, England several generations before." John and Mary might
      have sailed on the ship Bevis in May 1635/38, according to one account.
      However, the following entry is found in the "Great Migration Newsletter",
      Vol 7, No 4, October-December 1998: "The "James" of London sailed from
      Southampton in April with passenger from Wiltshire and Hampshire, and
      arrived in New England on 3 Jun (Newbury Knights)...and as we have seen
      just above, another JAMES began to take on passengers at London in mid-
      June and probably arrived in New England in October." This might have
      been the voyage for John and Mary's family who settled in Charlestown, MA.

      John KNIGHT Sr. [Parents] was born 1601 in Romsey, Hampshire, England
      and was christened 6 Sep 1601 in Romsey, Hampshire, England. He died 22
      May 1674 in Charlestown, Suffolk, Massachusetts, USA and was buried May
      1674 in Charlestown, Suffolk, Massachusetts, USA. He was sealed to his
      parents submitted 8 Jul 1998. John was baptized submitted 8 Jul 1998 in the
      Arizona temple. He was endowed submitted 8 Jul 1998 in the Arizona temple.
      John married Mary. There were other parents
