He legally changed his name for his workd, in 1953 to DICK NOEL (NOT Richard). I think we need to exchange some information because there is a LOT of confusion here. I have Noah's first wife as Margaret Noel and Fannie Cates as his second wife. I have Noah and Margaret having 8 children but I have continually found these same people (by name & date) attributed to several different parents!? I am getting very confused and it seems the more I look and the more I find, the more confusion there is! That's genealogy for you!!
