John George KNOTTS married Emma MATTINGLEY July 1886 Wokingham
I'm researching my KNOTTS family tree at the moment. My Great grandmother was Mary Ann Jemima KNOTTS. I'm looking for help locating information on her siblings and parents.
All I know of this side of the family is that She married Frederick Lindsay GILES and migrated to Australia after the end of WWI. There is a family story that one of her sisters migrated to New Zealand, but I don't know who. I have a photo of John George KNOTTS and Emma MATTINGLEY on their 50th wedding anniversary that I can share.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Below is a portion of my family tree.
