Details from PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 15 Apr 2023)
Name of father and age of Harry Knight, as well as his occupation, fit with the Harry baptised in Lurgashall and the one in the navy. Father's occupation not right - land steward (Harry's baptism record shows labourer, and 1871 census labourer and hoop maker) but this was often exaggerated.
