Cinnamond Family History

Cinnamond Surname Meaning

As Redmonds' Dictionary of Yorks Surnames shows, this is an altered form of Seliman (see Selman) through l/n substitution and false association with the word cinnamon. Redmonds draws his evidence from the parish registers of Beverley (ER Yorks): John Synamon alias Silliman 1622; and from the parish registers of Leeds (WR Yorks): Bryan Selyman (1539), John Siliman (1615), and Francis Silleman (1684).

The last of whom is also named Sinemond on his tombstone and Cinamon when his will was registered in 168. Redmonds also notes that in the parish registers of Mirfield (WR Yorks), it was confused with Simonet (see Simmonite): Joshua Synamond, Simonet, or Simolet (1649–82).
