Edwin Knight - Ruardean - 1863 - 1913 (General)

I am looking for information about Edwin Knight. He ran The Swan Hotel in Cinderford High Street.
I am looking for information on his family especially his wife. All I know about her was her name was Fanny. She was possibly older than Edwin.
They had 7 children - Frances b. 1882
- Kate b. 1887
- Thomas b. 1888
- Sydney b. 1890
- Florence b. 1893
- Ethel b. 1894
- Hilda b. 1897
I can't seem to find much out about these either.
Any info will be gratefully appreciated.

Edward Kilby or Thomas Kilby
Have two names of which I am confused about
1. Edward Kilby born abt. 1783-1837 married a Jane Bunce (1781-1857) married 1804
One of the children Thomas born 1811 married Elizabeth Elley on 9/5/1842
2. I have a Thomas Kilby who married a Margaret Dance in 1801
One of the children Thomas born 1811 married Elizabeth Elley on 9/5/1842
Can anyone tell which is correct
so can anyone tell who Edward Kilby who married Jane Bunce was
Edward Kilby or Thomas Kilby

There seems to be a difference of opinion on various Public Members Trees on Ancestry also, which states Thomas KILBY married Elizabeth ELLEY - Penrose, Monmouthshire - 9 May 1842.
