(death date wrong on stone, veteran's marker not placed here until 1954/5 by Noland's widow Mary; birthyear subject to argument v. 1890 & 1892)

Noland was a baby when his parents came to Coalgate in the Indian Territory. His mother died in 1906 and his father remarried twice by 1910, likely triggering some rebellion in Noland to punish his father. He married hastily shortly after coming to Oklahoma City as a tire man in 1916, but then with the 1917 draft and a divorce from the first wife, he left for Fort Worth and then France in the summer of 1918. He did not see combat (the armistice came at about the same time as orders to the front after a lengthy training schedule). Once home in 1919 he remarried three times by 1923, having a single son by the fourth and final wife.
