After the turn of the century, with the development of intra-school rivalries in football, schools found that they needed something beyond the available musical repertory for their partisans to sing and rally around. Out of this came a surge of original & d

istinctive school Fight Songs, most notably the Univeristy of Michigan's and Notre Dame's.

Here at Michigan State College the Fighting Aggies (later to be rechristened The Spartans) settled upon a song written by Bay City engineering student Francis Irving Lankey, class of 1916. Mr. Lankey had the designation of Yellmaster, equivalent to today's head cheerleader.

The words today are pretty much as they were when he wrote them in 1914 or 1915 with the exception of the changes growing out of the school's change in status from a College to a University (from M.A.C. to M.S.U.).

While the words are Mr. Lankey's the bulk of the melody appears to have been lifted from a hymn from the early part of this century "Stand Up, Stand Up For Jesus" (words by George Duffield & music by Adam Geibel). An image from the 1938 Cokesbury Worship Hymnal appears to the right showing the musical score. Over the years various band members and directors have "enhanced" the tune to give us the big musical event that you hear at every Spartan home game.

Following the United States' entry into World War One Mr. Lankey entered the military and was killed in battle in France in 1918. A memorial to all of the fallen M.A.C. students from that war is found west of Williams Hall about 20 feet off the Beal Entrance Drive.

Memorial at Michigan State University

Here are the words to the song:

On the banks of the Red Cedar

Is a school that's known to all;

Its specialty is winning,

And those Spartans play good ball;

Spartan teams are never beaten,

All through the games they fight;

Fight for the only colors,

Green and White.

Go right thru' for MSU,

Watch the points keep growing.

Spartan teams are bound to win,

They're fighting with a vim.

RAH! RAH! RAH!

See their team is weakening,

We're going to win this game.

Fight! Fight! Rah! Team, Fight!

Victory for MSU.

Lankey tragically died in a plane crash in World War I and is memorialized on a plaque on campus.

William KNIGHT - b. 1862

2014-07-07T00:00:00.000-04:00

William KNIGHT1 was born on 5 Apr 1862 in Staveley, Derbyshire, England.

William Knight and mates

William was a miner who astonishingly managed to leave the mines to become a market gardener in Saxilby during the week and a "bookie" (despite this being illegal at the time), at the weekends in Woodhouse Mill. He was a real character according to my uncles who are in their 80's being smartly dressed and travelling around in a pony and trap. He had 2 families, one in Woodhouse Mill and the other in Saxilby ....neither knowing of the other until the funeral.

The William Knight Saga: An Account by Jeff Knight: 18-March-2011

====================================================

The William Knight Saga : date 18 march 2011

William has been a mystery for 3 generations as it was known that he had 2 families but he had carefully concealed each identity from the other. Even his death certificate proved difficult to find and this only came to light as a result of research into his burial inSheffield, revealing that he died in Saxilby. The identity of his son, C. Storey who was the “informant” re-opened the search.

William Knight was born in Staveley, Derbyshire on 5th April 1862, the son of Joseph Knight, born Lubenham, Leicestershire, and Eliza Bosworth, born Desbrough, Cold Ashby, Brixworth, Northants, . The Knight family had lived in the Lubenham area for several generations and were a relatively well off family of Bakers.

Joseph, his father, had had a complicated early life which is extremely difficult to trace in detail/with certainty. William's grandfather, Thomas Nelson Knight appears to have taken over the family bakery business when his father Thomas died, which he ran with his mother; married quite late in life; had only one child, Joseph; and died in the Northamptonshire Lunatic Asylum whilst Joseph was an infant .

The family appears to have been quite comfortably off as they rented a box pew in Lubenham church and there are several reasonably substantial headstones for the family in the Lubenham churchyard.

William married Mary Meredith, born 1863, whose family originated in the free-mining culture of the Gloucestershire Royal Forest of Dean. They married in Chesterfield on 4th February 1883. Mary's family is interesting in itself, providing an insight into the way of life in the Victorian Forest of Dean mining community.

In the 1871 census, William is 8 years old and living with his parents at Woodhouse Mill, Sheffield. His father, Joseph, is a coal miner.

In the 1881 census, William is 18 years old and a miner, living with his parents at “the island”, Woodhouse Mill, Sheffield.

The island was a horseshoe shaped development of 3 rows of terraced houses on a solid area of land surrounded by an area of swampy land which was flooded when the river was in full flow. There was a single access lane onto the island. It is thought that the houses belonged to the owners of Orgreave Colliery where all/most of the occupants worked. There was a single shop on the island which was run at one point by Percy Knight, one of William's sons. The back yards to the houses were made of timber supported by wooden piles/columns and apparently the toilets discharged at the bottom of the yards directly into the river …..the imagination is tested when the conditions in the summer when the river is at its lowest are considered ! According to extracts from books on the area, (sadly now out of print), which belong to a local shop-keeper whose family have lived in Woodhouse Mill for generations, the island was described in the late 1800's as “the worse living conditions in the whole of the West Riding of Yorkshire, the odour being almost unbearable as a result of the close proximity of a huge bone yard, tannery and soap works”.

William married Mary Meredith on 4th February 1883, the marriage being registered in Sheffield.

In the 1891 census, William is married to Mary and is still living on the island at Coalbrook Terrace. He is 28 years old, a coal miner, and has 6 children.

In the 1901 census, William is 39 years old, living with his wife Mary and 9 children and “living on his own means”. One of his children, Frederick is listed here as being a cripple all of his life being born with a spinal injury. Two of his sons are also listed as “living on his own means”. Family legend has it that at this time he was working for himself as an illegal “bookie” involved in betting on local dog racing and bare-knuckle fighting. It has recently come to light that he was injured in a mining accident where he had damage to his chest as a result of a rock-fall involving a pit-prop and that he was unable to work in the mine for some time. This is an interesting detail as the type of injury would normally be attributed to a “waste-drawer” in a modern mining environment. It is important to understand here that Orgreave Colliery where William worked was something of a revolution in the mining industry of the time as it employed the brand-new state of the art long wall mining techniques where coal is extracted by driving 2 parallel tunnels then taking out a continuous strip of coal, (the coal-face), between the 2 tunnels, i.e. extracting a wide progressively moving wall of coal as the coal-face progresses forwards. The roof of the extracted coal is supported by timber pit-props and these become progressively over-loaded as the face moves forward resulting in catastrophic collapse if not expertly and progressively controlled. This involves the progressive removal of selected pit-props which are released in a controlled way allowing the roof of the mine to gradually settle, slowly compacting stacks of horizontal timber pillars, as the coal extraction face moves forward. This is the cause of a predictable subsidence wave at the surface resulting from the slow controlled collapse of the roof of the mine. If the weight of the roof is not carefully controlled, excess weight is applied to individual pit-props resulting in them unpredictably snapping horizontally with the broken props being shot sideways like a shell out of a gun; at great speed and with massive force, potentially causing a total collapse of the roof of the coal-face itself. These projectiles are obviously extremely dangerous for the men working in the vicinity. Traditionally, the waste drawing expertise was passed down within teams of men consisting usually of father/sons/uncles/cousins etc. Injury from horizontal pit-prop accidents, as is the case here, is almost always to those working as waste-drawers as these are the highly specialised workers who do this work. It is known for a fact that William's son William and his grand-son, also William, were employed as waste-drawers, the former being also at Orgreave Colliery. It has also come to light that William may have been involved in a criminal gang in Sheffield in his younger days which may have been a reference to the under-world aspect of gambling at the time and possibly the activities which ran parallel to it. We know that his 2 sons who were “living on his own means” in 1901 were working for William and this has always been assumed to have been an involvement in the “bookie” work. However, it is equally possible that the illegal activities might well have been wider than being a “bookie” and the sons might have constituted “the gang” or at least been part of it. This will probably never be known for sure.

The 1901 census is interesting also in the fact that for the first time William appears to be in 2 places at the same time. He is clearly the “Head” listed on the 1901 census for his home at Woodhouse Mill : he is also listed as “visitor” but under the name William Night on the census entry for the family of Joseph Hughes, a chimney sweep, at Killamarsh.. Their daughter Rebecca is living with them. Rebecca soon becomes William's partner/wife and has a substantial family with him at their home in Saxilby. Rebecca already has 2 children listed on the 1901 census, the elder of the 2, Hilda aged 2 years, being born in Boston in Lincolnshire and William, aged 1, being born in Saxilby. Whether or not he is simply listed as visiting or is actually living there is not known. Looking back through the census entries for 1891 and 1881 shows Rebecca listed as Rebecca Hughes in 1901 and Rebecca Storey, (her mother's maiden name and her “father”'s name), Hughes, (i.e. Storey-Hughes), in 1881. This suggests that Rebecca was born before Annis Storey and Joseph Hughes married and that her actual surname was Storey.

In the 1911 census, things become even more complicated as the census entry was made by “William Storey”, this being over-scored, we can only assume by the enumerator, and Hilda, (the 12 years old daughter), being substituted. No doubt this is as a result of the person signing the entry as correct, i.e. William Storey, does not appear to be resident on the date of the census. Also, Rebecca was originally entered as “Wife” and this has also been changed to read “Head”. Comparison of the handwriting for the entry on the Saxilby 1911 census form and that made by William Knight on the Woodhouse Mill 1911 census are identical ….even the signature for “William” is identical. There is no doubt that the same person completed both entries. The 7 children are listed as “Son”/”Daughter” suggesting that the person filling in the form, i.e. William Storey/Knight was their father. It is reasonable to assume that Rebecca believed that William was her husband, albeit not actually married and that he worked and lived away. Apparently, he came home for the weekend, every other week, returning to Sheffield to work. In Sheffield, Rebecca believed William to be lodging with a lady called “Polly”. The factor which puts all this in doubt is the name that William used. Rebecca was clearly aware that he was William “Night” as he is listed as “visitor” on the 1901 census for Rebecca's parents, yet in 1911 he is listed as William Storey. This suggests that Rebecca was party to the fact that they lived as Mr & Mrs Storey,(her/her mother's maiden name) in Saxilby whilst she knew that he was actually William Knight. Whether she knew that he had a family in Woodhouse Mill or not is not, and maybe will never be, known.

Apparently, William, (who had a total of 11 children with Rebecca ….+ possibly 2 which are at present unconfirmed), was well liked by his children in Saxilby and there are stories of him bringing sweets etc., on his brief weekend visits. Having said that, he also expected to be met at the station and if this did not happen he spent the house-keeping in the local pub leaving Rebecca with no money ….she subsequently became self-sufficient. The same goes for the children of the Woodhouse Mill family although the bitterness felt after the existence of the second family after his funeral soured the opinion of him over the following generations. Apparently, he travelled from Woodhouse Mill to Saxilby by train which was a relatively brief journey despite the huge distance involved for the time. This suggests that Saxilby was perhaps chosen for this specific reason. The story which was told in Woodhouse Mill was that he travelled to Saxilby to collect vegetables for sale in Woodhouse Mill. Various different forms of this story exist, ranging from him being a market-gardener to others where he bought the goods for sale on markets or to market traders/shops. It would be interesting to know if Rebecca's self-sufficiency meant that she produced vegetables etc., some of which William subsequently took back to Woodhouse Mill.

There are stories in existence which have passed down from the Woodhouse Mill family. For example:-

Colin Knight, William Knight's grand-son who is still alive and in his late 80's, remembers William visiting his parents when he was a small child. William was accompanied by a “posh” lady, both of them being really well dressed and driving a pony and trap. He remembers that his grandfather brought a large basket of eggs, “a real luxury at the time”. He has always assumed that the lady was his grandmother Mary, but this cannot be the case as Mary died in 1914, i.e. before Colin was born. It seems unlikely that this was Rebecca but maybe it was “Polly”, we will never know. He only recollects seeing his grandfather once.

Another story suggests that William had, at some time in his life “long hair and a white beard”. This story comes from William, his grandson, the son of William's son also called William. William's son William had 5 children, 4 of whom are still alive and all in their late 80's and 90's. Unfortunately they seem to remember little of their grandfather.

Apparently, William left a will, leaving everything he had to both families equally. This seems to be understood to be the case no matter who is asked in the Woodhouse Mill family, so it is probably correct. At present a copy of the will has not been located.

The story also suggests that the 2 families did not know about each other until after William's death. The death certificate, death registered in Saxilby, is in the name of William Knight and the informant is C. Storey, resident at West Bank, Saxilby, who is listed as “Son” and the term “Step” has been inserted by the registrar ….i.e. he considers himself as William Knight's son but the registrar has modified this for some reason to step-son. This is proof positive that William Knight and William Storey are one and the same person.

Apparently, at the funeral, which was in Sheffield, the 2 families had a huge falling out as both wanted to walk immediately behind the hearse. This story takes several forms from verbal argument to fights etc. It would be nice to think that the former is the case but the latter is equally possible.

William's name was not spoken in several Knight households for 2 generations. This has made research extremely difficult.

This saga is changing on a daily basis and will be updated a appropriate

It is hoped that this brief account is of interest to anyone interest in the William Knight/Rebecca Storey/Mary Meredith family history. Any information/stories and/or photographs (copies or originals which will be immediately copied and returned) would be much appreciated.

According to 1870 and 1910 censuses, Thomas was b. in Canada. On the 1900 census, place of birth is Ohio. However, all his children say their father was b. NY. Because the 1900 census says Thomas has been married 17 years, it is assumed that he is the father of all of these ch Also, no entry for Thomas and Mary Ann Knight is found in the 1860 census, so this would also support the fact that the family was in Canada for a short time.

Thomas KNIGHT - b. 1761

2014-07-03T11:26:00.001-04:00

Thomas Knight b. 1765

Thomas KNIGHT1 was born2 about 1761 in Of Portsea Island, Hampshire, England. He died2 on 23 Jul 1829 in Lubenham, Leicestershire, England. He was buried2 in All Saints Churchyard, Lubenham, Leicester, England.

Thomas worked3 as Baker.

==========================================

Email from Jeff Knight:

I have also discovered that Thomas was the local baker and Ann looked after the shop. The sons worked in the bakery as adolescent/young men before leaving to follow their own lives. After Thomas’ death, the “baker” role was taken by their son Thomas Nelson Knight (1799) and Ann lived with her son Thomas Nelson and his wife Elizabeth. They actually lived in a village called LAUGHTON which is a few miles north of Lubenham but still in Lubenham Parish, (despite it having its own church). Laughton is literally next door to Gumley, (a couple of miles), where the Jordan family originated. Thomas Nelson disappears in the 1840’s and William Jordan, previously a Silk Weaver ....(which tended to be a cottage industry undertaken on the basis of being paid for what you produce at home), becomes the baker, I assume taking over the baker aspect of the family concern previously undertaken by his brother. I did not find Thomas Nelson’s grave at Lubenham but, living at Laughton, he may be buried in Laughton churchyard?

==========================================

Thomas and Ann Knight attended the church in Lubenham. Thomas was one of the first members to rent a pew for his family when the new pews were added beteen 1810 and 1812. He and Ann and several of their children are buried in the churchyard there. 1810 All Saints Church, Lubenham, Leicestershire, England

==========================================

This is a medieval status name from the Olde English pre 7th Century "criht", meaning boy, youth or serving lad, later extended to mean a tenant bound to serve his lord as a mounted soldier and therefore a man of some importance and substance. Later still, with the changes in the social structure of medieval England, the term "knight", (Middle English "knyghte") meant an honourable estate conferred by the king on men of noble birth who had served him well. The "Knights" of today, however, are far more likely to be descended from a servant in a knight's household or from someone who played the part of a knight in a medieval pageant or won the title in some contest of skill. Early recordings of the surname from this source include: Walter le Knit (1200, Oxfordshire), William Knight (1221, Worcestershire), and John Knyght (1275, Suffolk). Over fifty Coats of Arms have been granted to this illustrious family, one of the earliest being that granted to Thomas Knight of Hol, Northampton, in 1546. The Arms are on a silver shield, on a fesse between three bulls' heads erased black, armed and ringed at the nose, gold, a fret between two doves of the field. The Crest is a dexter arm embowed, vested bendy wavy sinister of four gold and red supporting with the hand a sword in pale, the point resting on the wreath, the pommel surmounting a pair of spurs, all proper. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Godefridus Niht, which was dated 1166, in the "Norfolk Pipe Rolls", during the reign of King Henry 11, known as "The Builder of Churches", 1154 - 1189. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

Thomas married (MRIN:125) Ann JORDAN1,3, daughter of William JORDAN and Elizabeth (MRIN:829), about 1787. Ann was born3,4,5,6 in Dec 1765 in Lubenham, Leicester, England. She was christened3,6 on 13 Dec 1765 in Lubenham, Leicester, England. She died on 7 Oct 1845. She was buried6 in All Saints Churchyard, Lubenham, Leicestershire, England.

=======================================

Email from Jeff Knight:

I have found evidence of Thomas Knight’s wife Ann and she is Ann JORDAN as I thought, (99% sure but at these dates in the UK there is little concrete evidence). She was born in December 1765 in Lubenham and was christened on 13 December 1765 at Lubenham Church. Her parents were William and Elizabeth JORDAN of Lubenham, (not John of Papillon Hall, Lubenham, as I had suspected ....probably his brother). The fact that Thomas and Ann’s eldest daughter was called Elizabeth also supports the mother’s name as this is very common in the family at the time.
