The earliest records of Noel Battles are the original Revolutionary War "Muster & Payroll" cards on file at the National Archives dating from 1776-1779 and they "all" give his surname as Battles. A couple of times his given name is spelled Nowell instead of Noel. The first time I find Battlesby is on his marriage license in 1786 Amherst County, VA and then in Oglethorpe Co, Georgia the name Battlesby is interchangeable with Battles on court records.
