  • Notes 
    • On 26 Apr 1738, Zachariah Rhodes deeded land in Pawtuxet to his son-in-law, David Knapp of Warwick, and his wife Patience (source: New England Historic Genealogical Register Vol 114 p 282).

      David Knap of Gloucestor, cordwainer, bought a mansion house and lot in Warwick bordering other land David owned, 2 MAR 1746/47 Gloucestor, Providence County, RI (source: Warwick Land Records Vol 8 p 85; cited in family tree of Guy/Sam Wallis at Rootsweb's Worldconnect).

      David Knap bought land in Warwick adjoining Zachariah Rhodes in 1735. He must have been at least 21 years of age at that time (source: Warwick Land Records Vol 5 p 303; cited in family tree of Guy/Sam Wallis at Rootsweb's Worldconnect).

      David Knap is listed in the 1777 Warwick census as being over 60 years of age (source: Rhode Island Military Census 1777; cited in family tree of Sam Wallis at Rootsweb's Worldconnect).

      A Nehemiah Knapp died at Pawtuxet at about age 78 in 1815 (b c1737). Could he have been a son of David & Patience?

      Also, they may have had a daughter named Hester or Esther, who married at Warwick, 6 Sep 1761, to William France (Warwick Vital Records).
