New Boston. - With regret we chronicle the death of Jonathan Noble, an esteemed citizen of Eliza. The deceased had been very low with cancer for more than a year, but his sufferings was relieved by the white winged messenger, on Monday, May 6th. His remains were interred in Eliza creek cemetery with Masonic honors. He leaves a wife and family and a large circle of friends to mourn his loss.

(Excerpt from the "History of Mercer And Henderson Counties" published in 1882)

"Mrs. Harriet Noble, widow of Jonathan Noble, formerly a native of Indiana, was born in that state in 1821. He spent his youth in that state where he also received a part of his education, finishing in Illinois after his removal here with his parents. He was married in 1861 to Miss Harriet Irvin, a native of Pennsylvania. Eight children resulted in this union : Peter, George, Cora, Omar, Charles, Jennie, Beecher, and Henry, named in order. Mr. Noble first began business with his father which he continued for some length of time, when he removed to Iowa where he purchased 160 acres of land, near Iowa City. Then returning he was married and soon after bought a farm of 280 acres on sections 17 and 18, upon which Mrs. Noble is now living, and which is superintended by the oldest son. Mr. Noble was a hard- working, thorough business man, and highly esteemed by all who knew him. He was a member of the masonic fraternity.
