General Notes: Husband - William Noble


He was probably born in the eastern part of Pennsylvania, and came over the mountains in his earlier days, while yet unmarried. He settled at what later became Noblestown, and moved to Pittsburgh soon after his marriage. There he was a teamster for a time, and about the early eighteen-forties removed to Baldwin township, Allegheny County, where he purchased three hundred acres of woodland, which eventually became the site of Carrick borough. He built a house where Buck Tavern later stood, and maintained a hotel there by that name for some years. About 1853 the tavern was destroyed by fire. He rebuilt it, however, and this building, somewhat remodeled, and was still conducted under the same name into the twentieth century. He rented the new tavern, and built a house for himself facing the land that came to be known as Linwood avenue, and also built houses for his sons, and divided his property among them and his grandchildren. He and his wife were members of the Concord Presbyterian Church.
