General Notes: Husband - William R. Noble

Buffalo Twp, Washington Co, PA - a farmer

His education was secured at the common schools of his district, which he supplemented with much reading and general observation, and he became one of the best informed men in his section. After his first marriage he settled on a farm, which he greatly improved, adding many new, commodious buildings, thereby making it one of the finest country seats in Buffalo township. It was situated near the western boundary line of the township, and comprised 175 acres of the choicest land. Here Mr. Noble's chief occupation consisted in overseeing the work on the farm, and the raising and selling of live stock, in which he did a large business. He was an extensive breeder of Spanish sheep and Shorthorn cattle. Politically, he was a Democrat, and a leading adviser in his party.
