Kristin;
Verry Interesting???. My Great Grandfather Thomas St Clair married Mercy
Noel. and some of his children carried the Noel Name. Perhaps Roberts
Family also married into the Noel Clan as there were quite and still are
a few of them in Ohio. They originated in the Portsmouth [Scioto Co]
Area. I have been working on the Highland Co, [North and East of Scioto
Co] Ohio St Clair/Sinclair's recently. Maybeee??. Keep in touch. You
never know what will develope.
