Title	Joseph Knight Colesville, New York farm site
Creator	Mays, Kenneth R.
Contributor	Mays, Kenneth R.
Description	Joseph Knight, Sr. owned a farm on this site. In 1826, the Prophet Joseph Smith stayed here with the Knight family while he labored as a hired hand for them. The Prophet courted Emma Hale while living here. Following the organization of the Church, the Knight family became the nucleus of the Colesville Branch. Emma Smith and a number of others were baptized on the Knight property. Many of the Colesville Saints moved to Kirtland, Ohio for a short time and then continued on to Missouri. The Knight farm home no longer stands. A newer home on the property is privately owned.
