Notes for William E BELKNAP:
I haven't found details of this marriage as yet, but we can see quite clearly in the 1900 census return that there was a young girl named Rosomond Belknap living with her grandparents, Cornelius and Rosamond Knibbs at Athens, Bradford County, Pennsylvania. Cornelius had just one daughter, so we can assume that she married a man with the surname of Belknap.

Elizabeth had 7 children, 6 of whom survived.
However, we also see from the 1900 census at Athens, Bradford County, Pennsylvania.
Knibbs Cornelius Head 66 Labourer (Bridge Co.) England

Belknap Rosamond G.Daughter 15 Pennsylvania
So from this, it appears that William's daughter Rosamond was staying with grandparents.
