      D. Elizabeth4 Laird, born ca. 1804 in Augusta Co., VA,[184] married Thomas J. Noel on 12 Feb. 1833 in Hopkins Co., KY.[185] He was born ca. 1801 in KY,[186] and they settled in Hopkins Co., KY. They were living in Hopkins County in the 1840 federal census,[187] and in District 1 of Hopkins Co., KY, in the 1850 federal census, where he was a farmer.[188] He died intestate in 1854 in Hopkins Co., and his widow, Elizabeth Noel, was granted administration of is estate. His “perishable” inventory was appraised on 4 Oct. 1854 by Richard Gregory, Thomas Yates, and W.W. Bowers.[189] No guardianships were found for his minor children in Hopkins County. Elizabeth Noel was still living in 1856 when her uncle, Samuel Laird, died, and she was living within the Madisonville post office district of Hopkins Co., KY, in the 1860 federal census.[190] She died testate in ca. 1873 in Hopkins Co., KY. Her will was dated 19 Sept. 1871, and probated on 12 Feb. 1873. She mentioned her son W. F. Noel, to whom she commented, “I have already given to W. F. Noel all that I intended that he should have,” daughters Martha V. Noel and Mary E. Noel, who each got $600 plus a bed and bedding, and daughter L. A. Whitfield, who had already received her portion, and S. B. Noel, who got $300.[191] They had children:

      1. William F. Noel,[192] born ca. 1834 in Hopkins Co., KY,[193] married 1.) Henny Ann Kelly, daughter of John and Mary A. (Robertson) Kelly, of Hopkins Co.,[194] on 19 Oct. 1859 in Hopkins Co.[195] She was born in ca. 1843 in Hopkins County,[196] and they were also living within the Madisonville post office district of Hopkins Co., KY, in the 1860 federal census, where he was a farmer.[197] He was living in Hopkins Co., KY, in the 1870 federal census.[198] She probably died by 1880, and he remarried to 2.) Leila Oakley, and they were living in Evansville, Vanderburgh Co., IN, in the 1880 federal census, where he was a commission merchant.[199]

      2. Martha V. Noel, born ca. 1836 in Hopkins Co., KY,[200] marriage not found. She was still unmarried and living with her mother in the 1860 federal census, and she may have been the Martha Noel living in Madisonville, KY, in the 1870 federal census,[201] but she was not found in the 1880 federal census in Kentucky. She was still unmarried when her mother wrote her will in Sept. 1871.

      3. Lockey A. Noel, born ca. 1838 in Hopkins Co., KY,[202] married Ezias T. Whitfield on 27 Jan. 1859 in Hopkins County.[203] They were not found in the 1860 federal census in Hopkins Co., KY. He enlisted in the Union Army as a private in Company A, 17th Calvary Regiment, on 15 Feb. 1865 in Louisville, KY, and was mustered out on 20 Sept. 1865,[204] but he was not found in the 1880 federal census. L. A. Whitfield was named in her mother’s will in Sept. 1871.
