==Youth==
Kneen was born on 12 September 1873, in Hanover Street, Douglas, Isle of Man. He was the son of John Kneen, a postman originally from Kirk Andreas, and Hannah Crebbin, of the Santon family of Ballakelly. He was educated at St. George's School, Douglas, where he developed an early interest in the study of Manx Gaelic. He was encouraged in this interest by his parents, who were able to pass onto him a good deal of traditional knowledge.〔('In Memoriam: John Joseph Kneen' ) ''Journal Manx Museum'' No. 58, Vol. IV, March 1939, pp. 91 – 94〕
