The Coat of of Arms shown above were granted to James Langford NIBBS in 1759. Click on his name for more details about him. The longcase clock (commonly called a grandfather clock) is a typical specimen of a fine KNIBB clock. Click on the KNIBB Family of Clockmakers to find out more about them. |

Below is a portrait of The Rev. William KNIBB, the eminent Baptist missionary and emancipationist. He was, though white, the Martin Luther KING of his day, so passionately did he espouse the black man's cause. Click on his name to find out more about William KNIBB and his family.
| "Liberator of slaves" | ||
| "I here pledge myself, by all that is solemn and sacred never to rest satisfied, until I see my black brethren in the enjoyment of the same civil and religious liberties which I myself enjoy, and see them take a proper |  |
stand in society as men". So declared William KNIBB on 1 Aug 1838 at a public meeting in Falmouth, Jamaica, the first day of freedom for the slaves in the British Colony and Empire. |
| Having introduced you to the above luminaries, I must stress that the One Name Study is really about the thousands of K/NIBB/S who didn't hit the headlines. Some of the following pages tell their stories as well - see Contents for full details. |
Over 75 K/NIBB/S researchers participate in a friendly and informative Mailing List. Why not join us and the more recent Genealogywise social networking site?
In any event, enjoy your visit and please spread the word about the website to any K/NIBB/S whom you might know.

I am very grateful to RootsWeb for hosting this website. Can I please encourage you to use their worldwide resources? The banners at the top and bottom of each page are placed there by Rootsweb as are the annoying pop-ups which you may see if you do not have pop-up suppression software on your computer.
You can visit each page on this website in the order it was written by clicking the 'Next page' links. Alternatively, you can use any button or highlighted link. If you are looking for something specific, then just type in a word in the search box below and click on the Find button - this facility is powered by
FreeFind. You will be guided to the relevant page/s and once there, if the item is not obvious, use Control+F on that page, type in the word again et voila!
The Site Map, if nothing else, is particularly helpful to check that you have visited all the pages of the website and missed nothing of interest.
