Nobles in Sligo
« on: Monday 05 August 13 04:18 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I am looking to accurately identify the town land / parish in Sligo that my GGGGF & GGGF lived.   

Their names are Robert Noble (b. 1795) and James Noble (b.1818).  The Tithe Applotment Books have Nobles in various areas in the 1830's, including multiple Roberts and James. It appears Doonowla and Templeboy had a lot of Nobles.   *Note: Present day, zero Nobles reside in Sligo.

James ultimately left Ireland for Canada in approx. 1847 after his fathers death.  His mother Margaret as well as two brothers, George and Samuel joined him.   He married Jane Shannon in Canada but I believe she was also from Sligo. 

Thanks for your help!
