Rogers, son of the late Samuel Rogers, the painter, who for so many years lived in the white cottage shown in the sketch on the site of which now stands a handsome stone building tenanted by a financial corporation. Captain Knott came to this country with the Queen s Rangers in 1792. He was unmarried. On the voyage out one of his fellow soldiers, a married man, died and was buried at sea. A short time after the arrival of the Rangers at Newark, Mr. Knott married the widow of his old comrade, and to them a child was born in the old town of Newark, now Niagara. In 1793, the Queen's Rangers came to Toronto, and located, it is understood, in this humble dwelling, and here, it is claimed, the first white child in Toronto was born, early in the year 1795. The house was a storey-and-a-half frame building with a gable on Bay street, its front being on King. It stood on the line of Bay, and about six feet back from, the line on King street. In later years the sidewalk was laid with lake stone taken from the shore up near the old Fort. The building had about twenty-five feet of frontage on King street, and about twenty feet on Bay. The entire lot that it stood on was fifty-two feet. This was the lot that was purchased by the late Wm. Cawthra about 1855, prior to the erection of the square stone mansion, now occupied by Molson's Bank." ...
  and .. "Old Mr. Knott was an important individual in the early days of York. He was the first jailer, and some of his children were born in the jail building, which stood at the south-east corner of King street and the Leader lane, the site of the red brick real estate office, for years Harcourt shop. Old Mr. Knott's son, Wm. Knott, Jr., was a soldier in the war of 1812." from Landmarks of Toronto, Volume 1, page 439 & 440.
• Note*: May 1804; Home District Jail, York, York Co., Upper Canada; William Knott was the Jailer at the Home District Jail in York when Ogetonicut was arrested and incarcerated for the murder of John Sharp on Lake Scugog.
