Previously in this database, precise death dates for Maria and Noble were shown and their death location was listed as Greenfield, Highland Co., OH. Recent research suggests that Maria died prior to 1880 and Noble is living in Piatt County, IL with another family - he is "widowed". Also, their 2 younger daughters, Ida (19) and Effie (10) are living with their married sister, Mary Crawford Reed.
