  Fourth Generation  

16. Arthur KNIGHT (Henry James⁷, William², Adam¹) was born in Apr 1884.

The photo that we have of Arthur is unconfirmed.
Patrick Joseph or Carrie Doolan had written on it "Doolan Boy" (or similiar).
Whilst we have photos of the other Doolan boys who served in World War One, Arthur is the only one that we can identify (as at 2017) as not having a photograph.
