I meant that it seemed unusual that the baby went to the father's family miles away from the mother? Sorry if wording unclear!
No, that's not uncommon either. Depends on the circumstances. Maybe the mother married someone who wasn't willing to take on the child. Or her parents were not able to look after it. Or maybe the father just wanted his child more than its mother did.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Just joining this thread as it came up in a search.  I have recently placed this Jonathon Noble in my tree.  It seems he had three wives/relationships that are recorded. My tree connects with his sister Elisabeth Noble, whose son James Noble Ross married my family member Helen Grant Butters (also known as Helen Mitchell), born Peterhead in my Butters family.  James and Helen married in Aberdeen and emigrated to South Africa.

David
I am in touch with Margaret via Ancestry, and yourself already. Also another descendant in Canada you have recently been in touch with I believe? Since starting this thread I have quite a bit more detail which I am preparing to send you and Kevin. A lot has been added on our Ancestry trees fairly recently. I should add that I was mistaken in the Birmingham connection for Jonathan Noble’s daughter with Isabella Walker Mitchell, they stayed in Aberdeen.
Best regards
Nicola
