The Marego County, Alabama Knights

My information on my Knight ancestry is very limited. All I know is that George Thompson married Drucilla Knight in Marengo Co., Alabama in 1820. Drucilla was born in Georgia about 1806.

Drucilla and George lived in Alabama until about 1842 when they moved to Newton County (Jasper Dist.), Texas, where George operated a sawmill. They lived in Newton Co. until shortly after 1850 when they moved to Angelina County, Texas, where they lived out their lives.

George and Drusilla Knight Thompson had the following children:
