General Notes<\/b><\/p>\n

\n

Victor Hugo NOYES was born 20 August 1865, “4 o’clock”, at Anna, Union Co., Illinois. He died at the age of 21, but not before having traveled a good deal. One of his trips was to China, from where he returned with silkworms, which he raised. He also journeyed to India. Unfortunately, only a couple of letters survive from his travels.<\/p>\n\n\n

COMMENT:  What happened here?  Did the census taker just record initials and then reenter the information and make up names while doing so?  The J. Andrew NOYES household is that of James Allen NOYES and the children should read Emma Viola, Cora Rachel, Victor Hugo, Allen Marble, and Paul.  The children in the Asa HARMON household are Orrin Ellie and Edgar.  The “Susan” as Asa’s wife is probably Lucy as in the 1880 census.<\/p>\n
5. Accessory Document: Noyes Family Constitution, After 1878. The Constitution was prepared after 1878, while Emma married, but before 1886 when Cora married and Victor died.  It was perhaps prepared in 1883.<\/p>\n

7. Migration: 1882 Aug 9, , Barton, Missouri. Departed Anna IL for Barton Co. MO on this day.  The trip of about 300 miles took nearly three weeks.  Caroline kept a diary for nine days.<\/p>\n

9. Correspondence: Victor Hugo Noyes to Cora Noyes, 1883 Dec, Kansas City, Jackson, Missouri. 9<\/sup><\/a> 
The date on the letter looks like Dec 1887 but Victor died in 1886.  The date has been determined to be 1883, it being known that Victor was working in a tin shop in Kansas City in March of 1884.
“I have many more envelopes than letters, and none of the letters were enclosed in an envelope. Envelopes at that time carried the month and day, but not the year, so are not of much use in dating anything, anyway. It’s strange because the postmarks on postcards did carry the year.”<\/em>  Source: Nancy Benton 12 Sept 2003 email<\/p>\n
