I'm curious abour a Willie Shankle of Tippah Co. He was in the 1850 & 1860 censuses(born about 1800). In 1860 my gt gt grandfather's brother is listed in Willie's household, and I am wondering if there is any connection. My gt gt gt uncle was Samuel Noah/Noe and he was 17 in 1860. Samuel's brother, my gt gt grandfather Thomas R Noe, married Martha Perkins of Tippah Co. in 1861. (We dont know where Thomas was in 1860). Martha's maternal grandfather was Fredrick Collins of Tippah County-in 1850 Willie Shankle is enumerated in the census directly next to Fredrick Collins. So, any information on the Shankle family, and particularly any possible connection to Noe/Noah, Collins, or Perkins families will be much appreciated. Thanks, Jack Noe
