I am searching for any information on a Mary Noble from Dores Scotland between 1811 and 1814 when her two sons were born to her and Donald Shaw. Have absolutely no information on her, I have searched Scotlands People site but can only presume the marriage was not officially recorded. Her son Alexander married and came to Australia in 1848 but have never been able to track other son William born 1811 either.

My Noble interest relates to James N who came to Geelong/Australia in 1830.   His home village was Newtownstewart in Nth Ireland.    Happy to share the Australian history & appreciate of any Irish data.

Recently read that at one time in Ireland, births had to be registered within a certian time or there was a fine.  ...   so people would fudge the birth date..? might explain why BC dates do not always match later documents where a person might list their actual birth date..?

I just heard from a 67-match named John Noble in Australia, and I invited him to join the group. His ancestor was born near Irvinestown, Fermanagh in 1820.

to: Ron Oakley,

There is a marriage recorded at St. Mary's Ardess (Kesh, Fermanagh) between John Noble of Dromore Big and Rose McGolrick of Drumgregnahan in November 1842. My John Noble was born in 1847 or 1848, his mother's name was Rose, and he came to America alone in 1853. I do not know if this John Noble-Rose McGolrick couple are my ancestor's parents, but it seems a good bet. Anyone have any further information?

David John Gerard: Most of the information I got from my dad's cousin. He did a lot of the research. In the U.S. Census records that I have, his occupation is listed as puddler (1900) and a watcher on the railroad (1920). On his death certificate his occupation is a retired steel worker.

No I do not have an account with Scotland's records. The only documents I have are U.S. documents. My dad's cousin found the other information about his place of birth and his wife. He said he found some Scotland and England census records for John and Martha, but I haven't seen them personally. Martha was born in 1858 in England and her maiden name is Watson. I know from the U.S. Census records that they were married before they came to the U.S.

to: Ron Oakley,

My mother is a Noble, I have traced part of my grandfather James Paterson Noble's family from Scotland to County Fermanagh, Ireland. 

July 29, 1821 my 3rd great-grandfather John Noble of  Dromore, Par. of Drumkeeran married Rose Noble (daughter of John Noble & Helen Monaghan).

Their (known) children are: William born 1823, John b'24 & Henry b'29. All three moved to Scotland, .....   so a connection going forward is unlikely. Does anyone know how big these towns were.?   

 

-- I can only guess that if we do a little digging we'll find a connection going back just a little.   I see your Henry's Marriage cert. 14th June 1864 age 21 ( that would make his birth year 1843 (? they rounded ages a lot back then.?) bach., farmer, Dromore Big, son of John Noble, /// and Margaret McCutcheon age 20, spin.,  Residence: Russian (Rushin ? duel /questioned spelling Russian/Rushin appears under other births / marriage records also.)  father is James McCutcheon. I also see another McCutcheon birth to other parents who are also from Russian (Rusin sp?) also farmers, have you had any luck on that line..? 

 

[ Fermanagh, marriage / birth / baptismal records, as transcribed by George Armstrong ]

* note his spellings of McCuctheon vs. Mccutchen ..?

 

 I also see a Henry Noble,  born Oct 9, 1843, baptized Oct 22, 1843,  son of John Noble & Margaret (no last name listed) of Dromore, Farmer.  

[this birth year matches the age on his marriage record ? But you have a different birth date ?]

 

[ again this info is not from the original documents but transcriptions by Geo. Armstrong] 

 

*** hope I have not muddied up the water here, but you might check those records, dates and spellings yourself.

Just joined the Noble group, and wondered if anyone has heard of, or is related to the following.

My gr.grandfather Henry Noble born Mar 11, 1845 in Dromore, Co. Fermanagh,  married Margaret Mccutchen June 14, 1864 in Drumkeeran (according to IGI records, groom's father's name is John Noble, bride's fahter is James Mccutchen), and sailed for Canada the same year. They had four children, one died age 14 months in 1866, and the other three died along with their mother Margaret in 1871 of scarlett fever. Henry remarried and this second marriage produced my grandmother Marion Alma Noble.

Any help would be appreciated

Melanie,  was the John Noble you are looking for in the foundry or mining industry.?  do you have an account with Scotland's people (gov't records office) to search B/M/D & census records? I did a quick search this morning and found no documents ( in Scotland) in their records that would match John & Sarah, or John & Martha.   Do you have additional info..?

Hi there! My maiden name is Noble. My 3rd great grandfather John Noble was born in Scotland in 1854. According to the 1900 and 1920 Census, he came here in about 1882. He settled in Youngstown, Ohio with his wife Martha who was born in England and their family (all born in Ohio). Apparently his nickname was Jackie.

I have little information about his life in Scotland. I found that he was born in Greenock, Renfrewshire, Scotland. His parents were John and Sarah (Miller) Noble which I found on his death certificate.

I had heard my great grandfather told stories that my family originally lived in Ireland, then Scotland, but I couldn't trace that information.
