 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

Thx Michael, I am not on ancestry.com so either a gedcom or text file would be fine. From the matches on FTDNA yourself and two others, Bruce and Terry, are all at a distance of 7 within 67. Haven't checked to see which STRs are involved yet.

Is it your general believe that we came from the border area of Scotland & England during the plantation?

Welcome Scott -- My gedcom file is posted on ancestry.com as Robert-Isabella Noble Family. Not much info on the Ireland end -- most of us on this board are related to some degree but we haven't yet found our common ancestor(s). We love to compare notes in hopes that something will turn up. If you're not on ancestry.com, let me know and I'll send you a copy of the gedcom file or a text file.

Thx John, I will try and contact Bruce directly through Ysearch.

Hi Scott..

Yes that Michael is the one on this group! Bruce actually had his 67 markers done but for some reason has never updated them on YSearch and I have asked him to join this group but so far he has not accepted the invitation -- although he is on genealogy wise!

Hi, thx John for inviting me. My name is Scott Noble and the oldest direct ancestor is a John Noble, my great grandfather, born May 7 1850 in Belfast, son of William Noble. Both worked in the Linen Mills of Belfast. John immigrated with his family in 1873 to Canada and came to Toronto, Ontario where his descendants have been every since. I did a quick comparison of the Nobles on Ysearch and the closest is a Michael Noble, D64QD, with a distance of 7 over 67 STRs. Is the Michael on this list the same? If so I would be very interested in seeing how we might be connected.

There is also Bruce Noble, KT95P, with a distance of 4 over 25 STRs, but I don't think he is on this list.

Looking forward to sharing what ever I can

I did further testing at FamilyTree DNA on the Deep Clade testing and my haplogroup is now confirmed as R1b1b2a1b and the sub-clade as R-P312 .. on the Y-Search org, there is now a Scott Noble who is in the same haplogroup but is a genetic distance of 10.. we have exchanged one email so far but since I am holidays and won't be back home till Thursday, I will have to wait to converse more - I will invite him to join this group!

Hey Mike and Ken -- this looks really interesting --look forward to seeing the final graphics!
Comment by Michael W. Noble on May 30, 2010 at 2:32pm
A friend of mine, Ken Blue, just joined this group. His Noble ancestors were about 5 miles down the road in Co. Longford from where my ancestors lived in Co. Cavan -- surely related, but we can't identify the connection. Yesterday, we plotted a "Migration Trail" for Nobles in Ireland, using locations that have been identified from marriage, birth and other records (not necessarily our known family members). Starting with Co. Derry and coming down through Co. Tyrone, then Enniskillen, Maguiresbridge, and several other locations in Co. Fermanagh, then to Corhanagh in Co. Cavan (my group) and Cornadrung in Co. Longford (Ken's group), you will see a fairly straight, narrow swath of Noble settlements with little deviation. This is fascinating to see how the clan members migrated southward in Ireland and makes you think that most of them were most definitely related. When we've finished this experiment and have a presentable graphic, we'll post it here for you to see.

The following was posted on the Noble Family Genealogy Forum (http://genforum.genealogy.com/noble/) by Donna Causey:

I thought I'd mention to Noble/Nobles family researchers there are FREE genealogy records available on the website www.alabamapioneers.com.

Many settlers traveled to Alabama during the early "1800's" due to the opening of the Alabama territory. They often married in Alabama, had lots of children and traveled farther west around 1837 and the Civil War. You can also find the website by searching for the word alabamapioneers.com on Google

When you reach the site, Just type the name in the search box and remember to use various phonetic spellings since there were few schools and census workers often spelled phonetically. To lower the number of searches, type the name again, in any 2nd search box and be sure to check the box exact phrase only.
