Barb and Joe, Do you have further descendants of this William Noble? My Noble family has several Williams, but I only have found back to Thomas Noble born around 1795 and died about 1850. Thomas m. Elizabeth Morrison in 1818 and they had 7 children; William, Philip, Thomas, Clement, Sarah E., Rebecca A. and Mary Emily Noble. I have Thomas' possible father as Philip b. appx.1765 with his father possible Isaac born about 1740, but no documentation on these two... I also thought I would share the following. I am hopeful it relates to my Thomas Noble, but I haven't been able to find any links yet. I was sent this from the Nabb Center: Files\Content.IE5\BWA2UJ27\07-08-31_Noble-Davis-Kinder; notes from Nabb Research center Allen Twiford 2.The original Noble [given name unknown] arrived c. 1650 in Maryland and moved to Dorchester County to settle on the patent of John Richards who held the patent from William Penn. [?timing issue? PA in 1689], pg. 22. 3.#6 updated in 1975 to identify the first US Noble as Thomas [b. circa1640-d.1708] who arrived in Talbot County, MD, [circa 1674] married to a Joane.
