Mungo Noble of Munville
« on: Friday 12 March 10 17:58 GMT (UK) »
Is anyone familiar with this family? We have a family story that states Captain Mungo Noble married a Clendenning (my ancestor) and that Lord Erin (Erne) gave a present of a piece of his estate...Munville. I see it it around Lisnaskea. According to our history he had two sons, William and Richard.

Griffith's valuation matches well (1862):

Occupier Surname    Occupier Forename    County    Parish              
NOBLE    RICHARD    FERMANAGH         AGHALURCHER     
MULLEN    JAMES    FERMANAGH          AGHALURCHER       
NOBLE    WILLIAM    FERMANAGH         AGHALURCHER       
NOBLE    ALICE    FERMANAGH         AGHALURCHER

Also from an article:

"...According to Burke's Landed Gentry of Ireland, none of the children of the second marriage married, but a Bill of Indictment in the Exchequer Court of Novermber 5th, 1820 shows Mungo fathered two illegitimate sons by Alice Clendenning and married her shortly before he died on 29 January 1817. He was usually styled Mungo of Munville, just north of Lisnaskea, which was also called Killhill, and held the lease of Tonystick at the time of his death. Under his father's will he had been left 1,000 pounds and titles to the lands of Altawark and Eskmulligan in Co Fermanagh...".

Our story also states that Nobles travelled with Clendennings (Robert) to Canada, which was around 1850.

Thanks!
Waring, Clendenning

Going through older posts and came across this one. By now you might have been able to find more information but if you haven't done so the following might be of interest.

"The Will of John Noble late of Gortahorn County Fermanagh Farmer deceased who died 18 September 1879 at same place was proved at Armagh by the oaths of Alexander Noble of Killycramph and Richard Noble of Munville both in said County Farmers the Executors." Will mentions wife Sarah, "eldest son now present in this country John of Derryhurchian," youngest son Alexander to get "my house in Rossbeg," son Archibald (Australia), daughter Bessy Irwin, daughter Ann Jane Noble.

"Noble Archibald of Munville Lisnaskea county Fermanagh retired merchant died 11 March 1931 Probate Londonderry 2 June to Arthur Noble farmer. Effects £202 9s. 3d."

"Noble William John of Munville Lisnaskea county Fermanagh retired farmer died 10 September 1927 at Omagh Asylum Probate Londonderry 28 October to Mary Jane Noble spinster. Effects £21 4s. 9d."
"Noble Mary Jane of Munville Lisnaskea county Fermanagh spinster died 31 January 1928 Probate Londonderry 23 March to Arthur Noble farmer. Effects £85 9s. 6d."

I’m familiar with the Noble family of Fermanagh.
I have photos of Munville House I took in 2009.
