Many men and women with the surname Knowles (and the variant spellings of the surname) served in the American Revolutionary War.  Numerous Knowles ancestors were in the American English Colonies long before the Colonies sought independence, liberty and freedom via a revolution.  The following table is an attempt to list as many of the Knowles who have been recognized as honorable participants in the American Revolution.
