Judy,
Thanks for the post. Walter Houston Knight was also my great- grandfather. My grandmother was Bradie Knight (Virgie’s sister).

Walter Houston Knight was my great-grandfather. My grandmother, his youngest daughter,Virgie Mae Knight married Joe Edgar Hudson and lived in Red Boiling Springs,TN They were the parents of my father, Henry Haley Hudson, who was the eldest of six children … all deceased now. I am the oldest of 24 cousins.
I have been to Pappy Knight’s grave site recently.
My son is working on the Hudson and Knight geneologies. He has quite a bit of information if you’d like to know what he’s learned please contact me and I’ll put you in touch with him.

Hello Frank,

I think it’s entirely possible that one of our readers will recognize the names you have provided in your message. However, I think you are more likely related to the Mississippi Knights, a number of whom settled in California, than the Tennessee Knights discussed in the above post. therefore, I am going to cut and paste your post to one of the posts on the Mississippi Knights. See http://renegadesouth.wordpress.com/2009/01/01/an-american-family-the-multiracial-knight-community/

Good luck,
Vikki

I am doing research on my paternal grandmother Socia Beatrice Knight. She was born in Indianola, Mississippi around 1910. She stated that her father was Joe Knight, White and that her Mother was a combo of African and Native American. She could not produce any documentation but stated that she had a brother Joe Knight Jr and a couple of other siblings. She passed away out here in California circa 1983.
Is it possible that anyone could be aware of my grandmother?

Thank you
