William NOYES was a lucky drawer in the 1827 land lottery for Lot 3, Section 3, district 3 Troup county which is currently in Harris county. William, his wife Obedience (NEEL) (also called Beedy), and son Simeon (age 7-8) received their land April 3, 1832.
Family history is that William, Beedy, and Simeon were in this area until 1834 when William died shortly before the birth of his second son, also called William, who was born in September 1834. After Williams death, Beedy returned to Early County, GA, where she lived with her father Jonathan NEEL until her marriage in 1836 to Littleton BARKS.
William NOYES (who died in Troup/Harris Co.) is my gggrandfather. I would like to find any information which may relate to their residence in the area. Specifically, any land records (District 3, Section 3, Lot 3 - 230 acres), probate records, children custodian records which may apply. At the time of his death, William NOYES would have been about 39 years old.
Many thanks to Barbara Smallwood Stock for the hard work put in to this site over the years!
