"William was born Manchester 1787 first child of Joseph and Elizabeth.
Joseph being a weaver moved there when Arkwright opened his first mill
there. He later moved back to Bolehill where they had further children.
The William in the pedigree was born to Joseph and Elizabeth Strong of
Ashlehay, see Wirksworth records".

Notes:
1) The descendents of John Kniveton b.1817 have contacted me and are to be
found on ggmamess@yahoo.com Edward and Jeanette Messenger of Texas
2) Vic.Rosewarne gave me so much information that I am sure that his descendents
will be lodged with Derbyshire F.H.S.
I would like to publicly acknowledge that this tree would have been impossible
without the invaluable contribution which Vic Rosewarne of Twickenham gave
to me in 1985
