Hullo to all you happy pen nibs! Has anyone found any connections (in early 1800s) to families of HALL, PORTER, WELSH, or POPE in the UK- main districts/counties of Nottingham, Kent, Wiltshire or Yorkshire? My William KNIBB PORTER was born in Salisbury in 1835 and there must be a reason why he is named KNIBB - someone suggested once that there was a preacher by the name of KNIBB who was very popular at the time but I have not been able to connect that. Best wishes to all. Wynne
