You might try the Horseless Carriage Club, LaJolla Region. There is a gentleman by the name of Eric Roseneau who lives near Ramona, California who has or had one. He surely has studied them and can possibly give you some information.

AGEEZER -
First consult Henry Austin Clark, Jr.'s seminal text, Standard Catalog of American Cars: 1805 - 1942. It has a decent bit of information on the Knox as well as quite a few pictures and break downs for the different model years.
Also, check out this video by the Historic Vehicle Association on a Knox out in Central California:
For more information check out Google books on the internet. They have scanned in, a couple of periodicals from the early years of automobiles that very well could have references to Knox.
Even further research may be conducted over on the Crittenden Library at The Crittenden Automotive Library @ CarsAndRacingStuff.com. This gentleman has scanned in quite a few early automotive resources.
The Horsless Carriage Gazette has an online index to their magazine that can be extremely helpful for finding old articles written on the Knox.
These are just a few to get you started! Let me know if you are still after more sources and info. I am currently doing research on a 1909 car and come across quite a bit of good sources for these early cars!
Best,
Casey
AGEEZER,
This original Knox sale brochure would be very helpful. However it is a little on the pricey side!
