my cousin in australia has asked if I can find her family of Knight, but I'm having trouble can anyone help please.
Walter Henry Knight (b1862 India) he married Annie Louisa Blake in the IOW she has the M/C and is states the fathers names as Henry IOW yaughtsman. I have him Walter on the 1871 census he is at military school in Chelsea then on the 1901 and 1911 census returns with his wife. I cannot find him on 1881 or 1891 census returns???
I'm trying to find his father also with his wife Elizabeth but no luck so far has anyone any suggestions please.

The IOW FHS website won't help if he was born in India.

[WendyPusey]

Family Search have his birth & Marriage (Submitted) and it states his parents are Edward Knight & Eliza.

Don't know if that helps or hinders!

According to this tree on Ancestry father is Edward Henry Knight. Not much info though, I'm afraid.
