About Ann Knight

Ezekiel Knight appears to have married three times: 1st, Ann , who consented to deed in 1645, as above, and who was living in 1655.

Ezekiel Knight's daughter Elizabeth, who married a Wentworth, of Cochecho, must have been by his first wife.


According to The Wentworth Genealogy (citation details below), the will of Ezekiel Knight "gave to his wife Mary all his estate for life; at her death, two thirds were to go to son Ezekiel Knight, jr., and one third to daughter Elizabeth Wentworth, of Cocheco." Evidently there were exactly two and only two Elizabeth Wentworths in Cocheco at the time, thus establishing that Ezekiel Knight was the father of either the wife of Elder William Wentworth or of the wife of his son Ezekiel.
