Hello - um good evening.
I also have a NICHOLS in my tree, but she is from Biddleston in Buckinghamshire so probably no connection!!
I must say I have not come across the name Cyprian before - is he a saint? I cant imagine there are many originators of the name KNEEBONE about so we may all be connected somehow if we go back far enough.
I haven't come across this forename yet but then I have not gone 'sideways' much with my KNEEBONE family tree and so do not have many siblings logged. As such most of my KNEEBONES seem to be called Thomas (though I do have 2 Johns)
I have several KNEEBONES going over to Australia to mine over there.

Good morning Emma
thank you for your Kneebone tree...and we have no connection at present
The patriarch of our Kneebone line seems to be Cyprian Kneebone
Our work started with William Hodges Nicholls in Kenwyn, Truro, Cornwall - he married Jane Rundle
Finding he was born in Taunton, Somerset..we turned our search to Somerset...and found our Nicholls family
We then found that an aunt of William Hodges Nicholls, Susannah Nicholls married John Kneebone from Truro, son of Cyprian Kneebone and his wife Hannah Wherry, in 1804 in the parish church of St Cuthbert, Wells, Somerset
- since then, on LDS, we have found a number of Cyprian / Sibberan Kneebones who seem to come from Mether in Cornwall or thereabouts.
We have had success in tracing the family of John and Susannah Kneebone, as we have their children were born in Truro.
We are interested in the Cornwall/Somerset connection within our family, and the extended family. There appears to have been considerable movement to and fro.
I am wondering of the Simeon Kneebone may be connected to the Cyprian Kneebone in some way, given that they are a definite theme of saints !
with best wishes...apologies if the ramble is a bit ramble-ish !
