Hi Group - just before Christmas, I had the opportunity to meet with Joe Lewis who lives a couple of hours away from me. She is researching Borden Noble. Borden's DNA results match similarly to Mike, Bruce & Terry!She had some photographs and one of the characteristics we noticed was a very distinctive narrow pointy chin in the males of her line and my line! Anyone else notice that in their lines?

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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-

I'm looking for the Irish connection for John Noble. He married in 1730 Catherine Mary Calhoun b. 1714, d. 1752. She was from Crosh Hose estate, Newton Stewart in Co Tyrone. In 1731, they left Ireland with a large group of Calhouns and went to Chestnut Level, PA, then Wytheville in Agusta County, VA then the Waxhaws Distirct on the NC/SC line and fianlly to Abbeville District in SC. John C Calhoun was descendet of this group. I have a family history, as best I could put it togther, of this group and would be happy to share - see attached or Noble Family of SC.pdf pls contact me phil@philnoble.com. Would love to hear from anyone that can help with linking John Noble back to the family in Ireland. Thanks.

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?????

Scott
