So “Red Knap” could either mean someone who lived on the “red hill” or, much more likely, the person with the “red head”, and given the colouring of a number of bearers of this name the likely derivation is fairly obvious. In this Redknapp family’s case the original name was spelled Redknap with one “p” for the whole of the 19 th century, and only acquired the extra P at the beginning of the 20 th century when many names in working class families became fixed in their spellings because virtually all children were taught to read and write at that time, and so would spell their name the way they first saw it written by an adult, perhaps their school teacher, and that particular way of spelling the name would stick going forward. This branch of the family were part of an extended family of Thames Watermen and Lightermen (Watermen rowed boats on the Thames, and Lightermen specifically rowed “Lighters” which were large flat bottomed barges) living on both banks of the Thames both on its western reaches of Surrey and London, and on the central and Eastern regions depending on the availability of work. This branch lived mainly in the central and eastern section of the Thames in and around London at least for about 100 years during the 19 th century. © Timedetectives 2009 The Redknapp Family Descendants of Joseph Redknap Joseph Elizabeth Redknap b: Abt. 1781 b: Abt. 1770 d: Bet. 1841 - 1851 d: Bef. 1842 1: 1816 Waterman 2: 1827 Lighterman and Waterman Georgiana James Amelia Joseph John Joseph Edward Sarah Redknap Turnbull Redknap Redknap Redknap Pressman b: 04 Jan 1801 Kingston- m: 1823 St Anne's, b: 28 Feb 1804 Kingston- b: 02 Mar 1807 Kingston- b: Abt. 1816 Twickenham, b: 1813 Poplar, London Upon-Thames, Surrey Westminster, Middlesex Upon-Thames, Surrey Upon-Thames, Surrey Richmond-upon-Thames, m: 1833 St Anne's Soho, d: 1877 Westminster, d: 06 Jan 1806 Kingston- d: 12 Oct 1808 Kingston- Surrey Middlesex Middlesex Upon-Thames, Surrey Upon-Thames, Surrey d: Bet. 1846 - 1857 d: Abt. 1881 Poplar, Bet. 1839 - 1847 Lighterman London 1851 Dress Maker Generation No. 1 1.
