Per 1993 letter from Gene Knapp, son of Ira Calvin Knapp #111325618:
"Elizabeth Knapp married Robert Mowbery: children (William; George; Alice; Clary; Delray."
"Delray" may be Johnnie or William - have not found another child with this name but will keep looking. (Aug 2021)

My grandmother's older sister called "Lizzie" whom I only heard of. There were no pictures among my grandmother's which I inherited at her death. I have looked for Lizzie a long time and finally, with the help of a long lost letter from a cousin ( Louis Gene Knapp FAG #40105581) I learned the name of her husband/children. Thanks Gene, and God Bless!
