[Knagges	Let it be remembered that on the 18th day of September in the year of our Lord one thousand four hundred and eighty four, the second year of the reign of King Richard the third after the English conquest, a certain Robert Knagges came before the venerable Thomas Wrangwish mayor of the city of York in the council chamber over the Ouse bridge and there and then promised and firmly bound himself to serve Robert Hewer shoemaker well and faithfully in whatever and all legal and honest crafts from the 18th day of September until the feast of Pentecost which will be in the year of our Lord one thousand four hundred and eighty seven for two and a half years seventy two days and twenty hours provided always that the aforementioned Robert Knagges for his part fully carries out the aforementioned agreement in the form stated, else this bond will be null and void in virtue and effect.

Monks, Friars and Nuns in 16th Century Yorkshire	YAS
Grosmont Priory	1480-1539
John Knaggs.
John Knagges was ordained acolyte at York on 9th June 1498, subdeacon on 22nd September 1498 and deacon on 25th May 1499 and may have been related to William Knaggs, a friar, who was living at Grosmont at the dissolution.
<Dies Tickhill 1558>
William Knaggs.
	When Cromwell’s commissioner visited Grosmont in Feb 1535/6 they stated that William Knaggs was seeking to leave the religious life, and at about this time he was referred to as ‘sometime a friar in this house’ and a memorandum made that he should be helped to a yearly pension or living for his cousin’s sake at Beachamp.  In 1548 the chantry commissioners recommended that a William Knaggs, who was then incumbent of the chapel at Cloughton in Scalby parish, should be allowed to continue serving there at a wage of £3 16s 8d  a year.  He was presented to the vicarage of Scalby in September 1554 and held the living until his death.  William Knaggs of Cloughton made a will on 20 March 1568/9 and asked to be buried in the choir of Scalby church.  He gave 2s to both Scalby church and Cloughton chapel, 20s to the mending of local bridges and highways and 3s 4d each to the poor of Scalby, Cloughton and Hackness, his lease of some land in Cloughton and the residue of his estate went to Edward Armestrang; it is possible that Sir John Watson, clerk, to whom he gave his silver dagger and spectacles, and appointed one of his supervisors, was a former monk of Whitby.  This William Knaggs should be distinguished from the former Whitby monk of the same name who had died by 1547.

Memoirs of the Life of Mr Ambrose Barnes, late merchant and sometime alderman of Newcastle upon Tyne

Ejected ministers at the Restoration.
At AllHallows was Mr <Thomas> Knaggs, who, quarrelling with Dr Atherton, a strong passive-obedience man, got himself so potent enemies, it was a seasonable removal to him, when he got the rectory of St Giles, London.

Dec 2 1687	Thomas Knaggs appointed afternoon lecturer of All Saints.  Salary 70l (Common Council Book)

May 29 1689	A sermon preached by Vicar March before the Mayor &c and afterwards printed by him.  “A Sermon preached at All Hallows Church in New Castle upon Tine, the 19th day of June, 1689, being the Fast-day.  By Tho. Knaggs, A.M. and preacher in the afternoon to that Congregation.  London, printed for Richard Randell and Peter Maplisden, Book-sellers in New-Castle upon Tine, 1689”  Small 4to pp. 30 exclusive of title and dedication.  “To his much-esteemed friends the parishioners of All Hallows in New-Castle upon Tine.  Gentlemen, it was no ambition of being in print, but in defence of myself, I sent this sermon to the press.  A few hot, inconsiderable men among us were very angry after I preached it.  I do not see any cause I have given them why they should rail, or think the worst of me for it.  But let them say what they please, I lament their malice, and pity their ignorance, and, seeing wiser men than they were highly satisfied with the sermon, their peevish reflections shall never trouble me.  Gentlemen, you all know what an huge number of people were my auditors, and how somenly the fast was kept; and I think I may solemnly say it, I preached to above a thousand persons, all which, except a few angry men, went home my friends.”  The sermon is from 2 Cor. 13. 11, the occasion of the meeting to implore a blessing upon the forces of William and Mary in the war against the French.  The discourse is strongly protestant and loyal, against divisions in the church and against meddling with public affairs which are to be left to the representative in parliament “unless the people make use of them only as noses of wax”.

Nov 5 1693	Sermon preached before the Lord Mayor and Aldermen of London at Bow Church, on Ps. lxiv. 9, by Thomas Knaggs, M.A. Lecturer in Newcastle and Chaplain to the Rt. Hon. Ford, Lord Grey.  It was published and dedicated to Sir Wm. Ashurst, Knt Lord Mayor.

Apr 16 1696	A sermon preached at All Hallows in Newcastle upon Tyne,  Being a Thanksgiving-Day to Almighty God, For Delivering and Disappointing a Horrid and Barbarous Conspiracy of Papists, and other Trayterous Persons, to Assassinate and Murder His Most Gracious Majesty’s Royal Person, and for Delivering this Kingdom from an Invasion intended by the French.  By Thomas Knaggs, M.A. and Chaplain to the Right Honourable Ford, Earl of Tankerville.  London:  printed for Richard Baldwin, near the Oxford-Arms Inn in Warwick Lane MDCXCVI.”  Small 4to pp28 exclusive of title and dedication to the Earl.

Sep 21 1697	Ralph Emmerson A.M. appointed afternoon lecturer at All Saints, salary 80l (Common Council Book) on the removal of T. Knaggs.

	And, in her Sickness, she was a Pattern of Meekness, and Submission for, in the midst of her sharpest Agonies, in her sorest Pains, she resigned up her Will to the Will of God; and, with great Cheerfulness looked Death in the Face, and was heartily reconciled to it.  She dyed in perfect Charity with all the World, and now rests from all her Labours.  Thus, all the Relations of a Wife, a Mother, a Neighbour, a Mistriss, a Friend, and a Christian, she acquitted herself with great Wisdom, Prudence, and Piety.

Dr Swiney
	This eccentric person died under very extraordinary circumstances at his residence, no 9 Grove Street, Camden Town, where he had resided for 15 years . . .
	One morning, becoming nearly insensible, his housekeeper called in Mr Knaggs, surgeon, of High Street, who having succeeded in rallying deceased a little, prescribed for him; but he would not take the medicine, and died shortly afterwards.
	The statement in the newspapers that he died of voluntary starvation is incorrect . . .

	This is to certify that I have known Richard Crosby, an applicant for the benefit of your charity, some years and have occasionally attended him professionally.
	He is subject to violent attacks of rheumatism and is now under a confirmed asthma, which he states were the effects of his humane interference wherein he with others succeeded in saving (a part of <in pencil>) the crew of His Majesty’s Ship Amethyst wrecked in Plymouth Sound in the month of February 1810.

									Humbly sheweth
	That your petitioner was upwards of thirty years at sea, out of which period twenty years master and owner.  He is now reduced to extreme distress and poverty by a series of misfortunes, and being lame, he has been for some years and is now totally incapable of going to sea, or of otherwise gaining a livelihood for himself and aged mother.
	Your petitioner begs leave to state that his father Robert Knaggs master mariner out of Whitby for a series of years was unfortunately killed by falling into the hold of a ship, that his surviving widow is now aged 95 years, having no means of maintenance except for the annual sum, between three and four pounds granted by the Honourable Corporation of the Trinity of Deptford Strond, and that she is now dependent upon your petitioner for support.
	Your petitioner begs leave further to state that he was born near Whitby in the County of York in the year 1760 and aged 63 years.
	Your petitioner begs leave to state that documents of his age and circumstances have been already presented to the Honourable Corporation of the Trinity by two of the elder brethren Messrs Abel and Aaron Chapman who are acquainted with the petitioner’s family.
	Your petitioner worn out with infirmity, disappointment and distress humbly entreats you will condescend to take pity on his case and favour him with a presentation to one of the Trinity Alms Houses now vacant, either at Whitechapel or Deptford, which are appropriated for decayed masters of Merchant Ships and your petitioner will as in duty bound ever pray.

Danby Manorial Records
Cleveland Family History Society journal May 1995 - Dr D F Severs (transcribed by John Knaggs of Guisborough)

1689-1701

John Knaggs was listed as a resident at Danby. He replaced Robert Thompson (sometimes this is significant genealogically), 'The first entry against their names was in 1696 and the record-keeping was so poor that I could not tell when the change from one man to the other took place.
John Knaggs was listed as a Glaisdale freeholder throughout the call roll. He was essoined at every court ta sort of apology for absence) which is usually an indication of old age or poor health (or both).
Leonard Knaggs was listed as a resident at Glaisdale twice. He was listed as replacing Robert Garbutt - between them they were listed from 1689 to 1696. Further up the page he was listed as replacing Ralph Woodward - between them they were listed from 1697 to 1'701. I don't know what to make of this because the periods are consecutive yet in 1697, the year after the Garbutt Knaggs entry ends, Woodward must have occupied the property covered by the Woodward/Knaggs entry. Leonard was also listed elsewhere on the page but only once and the entry was deleted so it must have been a clerical error.	--	- w - ---- -- -
Margery Knaggs widow was listed as a freeholder at Glaisdale only in 1701 when she was essoined.
William Knaggs was listed as a freeholder at Glaisdale, two below the entry for John Knaggs which might be significant because neighbours often appeared together. He was essoined at the first eight courts but thereafter 
the marks were a mixture of three atendances and two essoins.

1735-1739
There were no Knaggs listed at Danby.
John Knaggs was listed twice at Glaisdale. In the second entry he was essoined four times and then appeared once. In the first entry he was replaced by John Hartis and, although there is no indication of when the change took place, it would seem to have been in 1739 for the first two marks were essoins cJohu's) and the next mark was an appearance cHartis., when he appeared to be sworn). If my interpretation is right he was listed twice for the first two years, i.e. listed for separate properties, then he gave one up and retained the other.
Ralph Knaggs was listed at Glaisdale throughout the period and he was essoined at every court.
1786-1797
Dr Knaggs - in the Danby list there is an entry "sold to Dr Knaggs" - it is below the entry for William Husband.
Leonard Knaggs was listed at Glaisdale. He replaced John Baker when he was admitted in 1795 and he was essoined and appeared at the two courts thereafter.
William Knaggs was listed at Glaisdale throughout the period. He was esoined at every court. The 1'787 land tax return shows that he was an owner occupier who paid 11s 8d in tax.
1849-1853
There were no Knaggs listed or otherwise mentioned in the manorial records for this period.

I would make two last points. First, the call lists at Danby degenerated into mere lists of common right holders and it therefore follows that the absence of a person from the lists does not mean he was not in the manor. Second, I only noted the parish records for the periods I studied and therefore there is every possibility that Knaggs may be there to be found in the periods between my periods - either serving as officers or receiving aid from the overseers. The same goes for the land tax for there a full series of these returns too.
