Good to hear from you Linda. I too am doing this for my only grandaughter who was born 3/96.
First to answer your question
#1 My Wife's Great Grandfather was Isaac Lafayette Noblett B Jan 17, 1856 D Apr. 19,1911,Although the back of the photo we found recently shows D 1906,(?).Married 1881 to Edith Emma Vaughn in Spring Valley Grayson Cty. Va.Edith Emma Vaughn B June 4, 1865, D Apr 12, 1942. Edith Emma was Daughter of Joseph Vaughn and Anna Elizabeth "BETTE" Jacobs B 11/11/1846 D 2/3/1936. ****in the Jacobs line we go back one more generation to the Dempsey line for two more generations.
#2 Sorry, but we have never had any info other than Hulda Vaughn's name.
Thanks for the girls names. Interesting about Abram/Abraham Noblett. As you have previously stated, they could have been interchangeable depending on transcriber. Same as Noblett, My wife paints landscapes and I insisted years ago that she use her maiden name NOBLETT, of course it throws everybody so she just automatically explains,pronounces and spells it. With her late Mother being a Parrott with a close link to the name"RUSH" we get tangled up with the name Rush also.
It is kind of sad to learn that Grayson County will someday loose the name NOBLETT, especially after such a long run. Mywife had 4 brothers and of the four three had sons, so as of now Asheville N. C. and Chattanooga Tenn,Kansas and Michigan do have Nobletts.As info My wife's Grandfather, Isaac Lafayette's son was Clayton Delmore Noblett B 9/28/1883 in Fries Va D 4/16/1961 was married to Clara Roberta Gentry BEF 1905. My offer is still good if you would like the photos of Isaac Lafayette and Edith Emma, I have an extra copy. Again I thank you so very much for your help.Allen Smith: Husband to your Cousin Karen Noblett Smith, I have forgotten is it 3rd or 4th cousins?
