A Mr. Henry Knights, farmer and miller, died of consumption, 14th November 1852, age 66.
On Saturday 20th May 1854, a Messuage, Baking office and Post Windmill, the property of the late Henry Knights, deceased, was advertised to be sold by Private Contract.

The same property was To be Sold by Auction on Monday, 14th July 1856. The sale appears to have been postponed until Monday 25th July 1856.

Is  the 1858 Trades Directory entry for Henry Knights an error for John Knights?
