Richard was born before 1752.[1] He passed away in 1810.[2]
Richard married Jane Dorchester in Woodford, Essex in October 1773.[3][4][5]
Richard Noble was a successful carpenter and builder in Woodford, Essex. His long and detailed will sets out his wishes for his funeral that include his directions for how six of his oldest servants and six of his next oldest servants will take part in the ceremony. This implies that he employed at least 12 servants.[6]
Richard Noble paid duties for at least four apprentices:
He owned numerous properties in around Woodford, some of which were occupied by his children and their spouses.[11][6]
He died before 6 July 1810, being the day on which his will was proved before the Prerogative Court of Canterbury.[6]
Research Notes
There is no conclusive evidence in respect of where or when Richard Noble was born, and as the name is fairly common nothing is likely to be conclusive. One possibility is that he was the son of John Noble, baptised in Chipping, Lancashire England on 3 March 1750.[12][13]
