Biography

At the time of the 1870 US Census, the 20-year-old Noble is living in Woburn, Massachusetts. [1]

Noble married Maria Ellen Blenkhorn in 1873. (The record for this marriage gives his birth year as 1849.) [2]

The 30-year-old Noble W. appears in the 1881 Canada census in Canning with 24-year-old Sharin E. Corkum and four children. [3]

He died in 1902 and is buried in Union Church of Scott's Bay Church (Old Cemetery) in Scots Bay, Nova Scotia. [4]

Research Notes

Is Sharin Noble's second wife? His wife Maria appears to have remarried in 1906. It's possible that "Sharin" might be his sister, e.g. Corkum-96. Whitten-1 11:46, 24 April 2017 (EDT)
