It seems very unlikely that Mary Elizabeth Knight was the daughter of Mary Wiseman. Mary, daughter of Isaac Wiseman I and Mary Marshall, married Lt. John Merrell. No Knights are referenced in the will of Mary (Marshall) Wiseman, nor in the will of John Merrell. I believe the parents given for Mary Elizabeth Knight should be detached, as I see no evidence for the connection.
