If a lord gave a knight land with serfs on it the serfs would take care of it and if the knight moved the serfs wouldn't. Once you are a serf you can't go back neither can your family.

And there is a bunch of sentences with serfs in them above.
A peasant worked the land, but had freedom. A serf was bound to the land that they worked. They would live on the manor of a noble and work the land in exchange for food and protection.

No, a serf was a good deal lower than a knight. A serf was an agricultural worker who was bound to the land he lived on and was not allowed to leave it. A serf was not a slave, because he could not be purchased or sold, but he was also not free to leave the place where he lived. The knights were the lowest level of nobility. They were at a higher status than freemen, who were at a higher status than serfs.
Later in Midievil Life a knight had to provide for his own arms, armor, horses and retainers and money-based economies became more common. Rich peasants and merchants began angling for the title of knight as well. In 13th century England, if a man was free and could take up arms and pay the "knight's fee," he was eligible to become a knight.:D Vigorously awesome.
the answer is serf
