We may be able to help you discover your family history and build your family tree

Genealogy is more than just tracing your family tree, it’s about discovering your heritage…

Discovering your family is a learning experience as well as a hobby and as you journey back through time, we hope that Knapton’s contribution helps you to find what you’re looking for.

Wikipedia suggests that in the narrow sense, a “genealogy” or a “family tree” traces the descendants of one person, whereas a “family history” traces the ancestors of one person, but the terms are often used interchangeably.
Either way, we can help enthusiasts with Knapton’s family records.
