Laura Ann Knight
(1884-1956)

Laura Ann Knight was born on Oct. 28, 1885 at Scott, OH, the daughter of Daniel Harry and Caroline Elizabeth (Llewelyn) Knight.

Laura is known to have attended the one-room Riley School near Gladwin. She never married.

 Said her obituary, Laura “worked in the telephone office for a number of years and was a dressmaker for 30 years. She was a member of the Maccabees.”

Laura died on March 27, 1956, at the age of 70. Her death occurred just one week following the passing of her brother Norman Knight. Ironically, her funeral arrangements were conducted by the Miner Funeral Home in Gladwin, but a connection between the facility and our family has not been determined. 

Laura was laid to rest in the Knight plot at Ridge Cemetery.
