WELL MY THEORY IS THAT ALBERT MUST BE THE SON OF ONE OF WILLIAMS BROTHERS AS HE IS HIS NEPHEW AND HIS LAST NAME IS KNIGHT OR KNIGHTS..........WILLIAMS BROTHERS ARE ......CHARLES 1863........JAMES 1864.........FREDERICK 1874......ERNEST 1878........WALTER 1880........ALL BORN KESSINGLAND SUFFOLK AND LATER MOVED TO SOUTHAMPTON WITH THERE PARENTS........

Sorry I have got completly lost but this is my take on it.. The 1901 census shows William Knight as head with his wife Sarah & 2 children Daisy & Alfred, his mother Elizabeth & his brother & sister Ernest & Mable and also his nephew Albert Weston are living with him. This looks like William & Sarah's marriage... Marriages Mar 1892 (>99%) CRIDLAND Richard Abraham Southampton 2c 62 >>>Cropp Sarah Ann Southampton 2c 62 Frampton Louise Victoria Southampton 2c 62 >>>Knight William Southampton 2c 62 I think Albert belongs to one of Williams siblings probably a sister as the surname is different.

Gary I have tried to work out who Albert belongs to but I cant see where he fits into this family, I cant even see a birth entry for him because his birthplace on the 1901 census says Southampton Cornwall and it's not clear if he is a Weston or a Knight? Georgina.
