  Found at: http://home.earthlink.net/~lkstrong/s00724.htm From: http://www.rootsweb.com/~irlcav/knightree.htm 1852 "About 1852-55, Racheal Knight, daughter of a boarding house operator at St.John's, Nfld., married Jonas Newhook. They moved to Jacksons Cove soon after and were [the] first Newhooks there. With them, there moved from St. John's and settled in Jacksons Cove, three of her brothers, Jessie, Henry and Temple Knight. They were supposedly the first Knights north. (*This is contradicted by the Land Grant list unless the land was granted before the move and may have been for sawmill purposes.) After the boarding house burnt, the elderly proprietors moved to be with their children in Jacksons Cove and died there. (Must be John and Mary Ann.)" End Robert Knight's notes
