Va Query Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Caroline?read=1459 Surname: Noel, Taylor, Houston, Dillard ------------------------- I do not have any information on James and Lucy Southworth Noel. Have you tried the books 'Emigrant Cornelius Noel' by Jennie Noel Weeks or 'The Noell Family' by Millard Noell? Jennie was mistaken on our early ancestors but it was corrected in a later printing and is correct in Millard's book. Do you know the parents of James Noel (1864)? The Noell family is very confusing. They kept naming all the children the same name every generation and cousins of the same generation had the same names and were of course born about the same time.
