Biography
Robert Knowles was a son of William Knowles and Alice Fish. His birth date is uncertain; the Fish genealogy published it to be in 1681 [1], however this could be erroneous because his wife, Ann Hull, was born about 1702. Probitive sourcing should be sought to support this profile.
Robert Knowles married in 1721, Ann (Hull; 1702-1785) [2].
Robert Knowles passed away in 1759 [3]
