We already know the Mr K/Emma age difference: 16-17 yrs Written by Delories (4/1/2008 4:06 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, If we suppose Mr. Knightley was already around ..., penned by Adrian

Chapt 1: Emma is "nearly twenty-one" as the book opens. Upon Mr K's first appearing on the scene a few pages later, we are told that he is "seven or eight-and-thirty", which means that he was 16 or 17 years old when Emma was born.
