John David KNIBBS, 1869-1934

John David KNIBBS was the youngest child of Charles KNIBBS and Jane RUMNEY. He was born in Verona, Grundy, Illinois, USA, the first generation of this line of the family to be born in the USA  following the migration of his father and grandparents John and Ann KNIBBS  from Deddington, Oxfordshire,  England. John is shown here with his wife Anna Elizabeth GLENN and their two youngest sons Truman Ellsworth and George Lewis KNIBBS. Truman was the older of the two and born in 1897 so the photograph is probably from around 1905/6.
Anna was born in Grundy, IL, the daughter of an Irish father and Welsh mother.
