Generation 1
1. Jabez Tuey Knowlton, b. 22 Oct 1822, Canada.
Tradition has it from my mother that Jabez was born a Nolton or Knowlton
in Canada. His mother married a Tuey. The older children kept their
real fathers' name, but the younger children changed their names to a
variation of the name Tuey. Jabez took the current spelling of the name
at his marriage.
