Comment by John Noble on December 29, 2011 at 7:52am Hi Dennis - welcome to the Noble group. Hopefully, some of the others in the group might have more answers for you! Looking at your info, it dows not appear we are in the same Noble line!
Comment by Michael W. Noble on December 28, 2011 at 8:56pm Dennis and Eileen....Both of your histories are interesting and could provide some of the missing links in our Noble story. I'm away from home for the holidays, so will check some of your references when I return next week. Will let you know what I find.
Comment by Dennis Noble on December 28, 2011 at 1:59pm My great grand father was William Noble (Ohio), son of John Noble and grandson of David Noble.
William married Etta L. Smith and moved to Bloomington, IL. The couple had two sons, Harry (my grandfather) and Raymond.
Harry Noble married Mary Margaret Moore and settled in Chicago. The couple had 3 children, Margaret, William Thomas and my father, Harry, Jr.
From what I have read John Noble from County Donegal (1695-1752) was the first to settle in the US in Pennsylvania and married Mary Calhoun. I am not sure if I am related to John Noble as the trail becomes thin after Ohio in the early 1800's.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Comment by Eileen Souza on July 29, 2011 at 8:47am I am researching my g-g grandfather, Edward Noble, born in Ireland about 1826. He immigrated to England, sometime prior to 1851, where he met and married Mary Devine, born about 1831 in Ireland. At this time it is unknown if they knew each other in Ireland. Edward listed his father’s name as John Noble. Recent information on Mary Devine indicates that she was born and baptized in Co. Longford, Ireland.
Their son, my great grandfather, Thomas Noble, was born 1851 in Liverpool, England. Edward and Mary, with their family, appear in the 1861 UK Census in Co. Durham, England and, in the mid-1860s, the family immigrated to the US to settle in Locust Gap, Northumberland County, PA.
I am trying to trace Edward back to Ireland. I joined this group because I understand that the highest concentration of Nobles seems to be in Northern Ireland. Edward was Roman Catholic.
Comment by Joe Lewis on June 2, 2011 at 8:55pm Thanks John, for the invitation to join your group.
Our Noble family's DNA is on its way to FTDNA. With a looming postal strike it was sent by courier. I am hopeful once results are in I can get through my brick wall.
I am tracing the line of George Noble born 1813 in Cavan. He came to Canada in 1832 probably with other family members. He settled in Esquesing Township, near Georgetown. About 1850 he relocated his family to Brant Township in Bruce County. Other Noble families on neighbouring farms were probably of some relation.
Comment by Terry L Noble on April 19, 2011 at 11:02pm Phil,
I believe you need to contact the head of the Noble DNA group on FTDNA. His Name is Joseph Noble Jr. and he lives in Louisiana. I am sure he is connected to the Calhouns.
Comment by John Noble on April 19, 2011 at 4:44pm After further FamilyDNA testing - it would appear that Scot and I are in the same haplogroup-- however we are a genetic distance of 10!
This is the results!
| Your Haplogroup | Tests |
|---|---|
| R1b1a2a1a1b5 | P312+ L23+ L176.2+ U152- U106- SRY2627- M65- M153- L21- L165- L1- |

Comment by John Scott Noble on January 23, 2011 at 2:17pm Hi David, I am curious about your William Noble born approx 1822 married around 1850 s/o John Noble.
I have traced back to a John Noble born c 1795 father of a William born 1819 who married around 1850 and had a son John born I believe May 7 1850. William's wife died and he remarried to Elizabeth Brownlee March 16 1866.
Would this be the same family?????

Comment by David John Gerard on January 11, 2011 at 12:04am Hello to all, I (Dave Gerard in New York, USA) am new to your site.
My mother's father was JAMES PATERSON NOBLE (B.1906 Glasgow,Scotland) son of
Robert J. Noble (b. 1860) and Janet Paterson, both of Scotland) son of
William Noble (b. apx 1822, Fermanagh, Ireland) m. 1850 in Scotland to Sarah Strain (b.Tyrone, Ireland) son of
John Noble (b. Fermanagh, Ireland) married to Rose Noble (b. apx. 1800, Fermanagh, Ireland) the daughter of yet another John Noble and Helen Monahan.
I had hit a dead end years ago, and only recently thru Scotlands People was I able to search and obtain assorted BC /MC/ DC and Census documents. William also had brothers John (b. apx 1824) & Henry (b. apx 1829) also from County Fermanagh, Ireland.... each left Ireland, settled and married in Scotland.
I have again hit a dead end..... this time in the north of Ireland. there must be records somewhere of the marriage of John Noble & Rose Noble and the births of their children ..........
by coincidence my mother's mother was Margaret Brady from County Cavan, Ireland right next to Fermanagh.
Hopefully I'll find a church project, someone in my father's mother's family (Cross in the UK) was involved in a church project in England and was able to take parts of her line back to the early 1600's.
I am also searching my father's scot line, Cameron from the Aberdeen area.
Thats enough for now ....primary search line here for me is NOBLE in Ireland.... any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Dave
