    • Notes 
      • According to Anne's pedigree her great-grandfather(unnamed) was a farmer at Knoyle Down Farm.

        Victoria County History of Wiltshire
        East Knoyle:
        "The downs in the northern part made East Knoyle one of the bishops most important sheep farms" dated 1377.
        By 1650 it had split into four main farms: the principle farmstead which was later caller Manor Farm, Frairs Hayes and Summerleaze Farms and in the north end of the parish, which had been for weathers and was later called Knoyle Down Farm. Later Sheephouse Farm was established on the down of Manor Farm. In 1782 Sheephouse Farm had 761 acres. Manor Farm had 170 acres including 88 of woodland. Knoyle Down 467 acres. After 1838 Sheephouse was split between Manor and Knoyle Down."
        The Manor of East Knoyle also referred to as Bishops Knoyle.
        The farm still exits and is one kilometre west of Chicklade or 2 km to the NW of Hindon.
        There is also a Knoyle Farm near Savernake Park between Marlborough and Hungerford.


        The first name of this man is not certain but if William Neate of Yatesbury is his son he is described as William jnr. on his marriage licence of 1687.

        If John Neate is another son the baptism of his son at Compton Bassett states the baptsim is for John, son of John, son of William.

        A few possibilities?
