Lyle was the son of Delmar Adams Knapp and Levenah Pilbro.

In 1923, at 12 years old, he was placed in the NH State Industrial School in Manchester. He died there two years later.

Age: 14yrs 2mos 3dys

Cause of Death: Rheumatic Heart Disease


Note:
These state institution death certificates often have incorrect information on them. I can find no proof that Lyle was born in VT and the 1920 census said he was born in New Hampshire, like the rest of his siblings. It also said he was to be buried in Colebrook, but there is no headstone for him there and his parents are buried here. So I am placing him here with his parents.

If anything they would have buried him in North Hill Cemetery in Stewartstown with his grandparents and where they buried their two sons, Lawrence & Guy.
