Mr. Knapp married, in 1841, Cynthia Chase, who was born on a farm in New York state, her parents, Alvin and Ruth (Cole) Chase, having been well-known and successful agriculturists. Three children blessed their union, namely: James H., born in 1842; John T., born in 1844; and Cyrus C., born in 1847. The two younger sons now own and manage the parental home. The mother died April 11, 1910, and in June of that year she would have celebrated the ninetieth anniversary of her birth.
Cyrus C. Knapp, the youngest son, is meeting with genuine success in his agricultural labors, being numbered among the leading farmers of Margaretta township. Inheriting the political and religious views of his father, he is a stanch Republican and is identified with the more liberal thinkers of the day. He married, in 1903, Cora C. Schoewe, a daughter of Edward and Martha Schoewe, and they have three children, namely: Gilbert, Melvin and Martha. John T. Knapp is a partner with his brother in the ownership of the farm, and is unmarried. He, too, has embraced his father's ideas of religion and politics.
