KNOTT/S family in IA, ca 1844
In the early 1800's my g-great grandfather, WM KNOTTS, b 1805 in QA co MD, went to IL. with his wife and brother. But in 1844 he m #2 after his first wife died. The wedding records show he was from IA. His gravestone in OR also says he came to OR from IA. Can anyone tell me where KNOTTS' in IA were(County) in 1844? His wife, Sylvia D. WILSEY, was also from IA. They were m in Nauvoo, IL., by a LDS Elder. My KNOTTS family in MD seems to have been strongly Methodist.
