Knighthood was usually not hereditary. This meant that technically, anyone could be made a knight. Usually, the people who trained for knighthood were sons of noble families, and so most knights were members of the nobility, but there were exceptions. Some people were not trained to be knights, but were simply given knighthood as an honor because of some great deed, and in such cases the relatives could be anyone from kings to peasants. There is a record of a very large number of otherwise ordinary women being given knighthood after they fought in a battle in Catalonia. They were made members of an order created for them, called the Order of the Hatchet.
