Looking for NATHAN NOBLE. In 1881 he was listed in the census as 51 years from
Collingham, Notts. His address was 103 William Street, Swinton in Rotherham.
Does anyone have information on this family and more interesting the family SMITH
he had living with him in 1891. Thanks, Elizabeth

according to the rites of the Wesleyan Methodists. Can anyone shed any light

something similar. I believe the farm was/is called "Mill or Milk Farm.' Can

in 1850 to 1900.
