KNIGHT TRASK

I am seeking the family of a Harry and Emma Knight who immigrated to Eagle Grove, Iowa in the 1890's. Harry Knight was born in 1870 in Gloucestershire, England and his wife Emma [maiden name unknown] was born in Germany.

Harry and Emma Knight had two children to my knowledge:-
Helen Knight born in 1898 and
Gertrude E. Knight born in 1902

Harry Knight died in 1916 aged 46 years old and his wife Emma Knight died in 1963 aged 92 years old, both are buried in Rose Hill Cemetery, Eagle Grove.

One of the two Knight children went onto marry a man I believe to be a Lorenzo Trask? But I am not certain which one or what happened to the other sister.

Harry Knight died in 1916 aged 46 years old and his wife Emma Knight died in 1963 aged 92 years old, both are buried in Rose Hill Cemetery, Eagle Grove.

Two of the Trask children died at an early age and I am wondering whether there are any other Knight or Trask family still living in Eagle Grove, Iowa, today.

Harry Knight was one of twelve children one of which was a Charles Knight who briefly lived with him in Eagle Grove in one of the census circa 1910 but then disappeared.
Are there any relatives still alive in Eagle Grove who are related in any way to either of the Knight or Trask families?
