GABRIEL NOEL. On a fertile and well-developed farm consisting of two hundred 
and twenty acres on section 9, Jackson Township, Mr. Noel pursues the even 
tenor of his way, gaining the good will of his fellows and winning maintenance 
from the soil. He was born in Portsmouth, Ohio, July 2, 1820, and grew to 
manhood on his father's farm, the parent adding the control of a saw-mill to 
his farm labor. When twenty-seven years old our subject came to Will County, 
Ill., and on October 15, 1847, was married to Miss Elizabeth D. Zarley, 
daughter of the late Reason Zarley and his good wife. (See sketch of J. C. 
Zarley). This lady was born in this county November 22, 1830, is well 
educated, capable and of fine character. The union has resulted in the birth 
of twelve children, of whom five died in infancy. The living are Albert E. and 
Ervin R., farmers in Jackson Township; Calvin Z., clerk in the Hotel Royal; 
Elvis C., in the stone business in Chase County, Kan.; Susie E., wife of L. H. 
Lineberger, of Peotone; Rose M., wife of C. W. Tahle, of Jackson Township, and 
Frank G., still at home. Mr. Noel has been Road Commissioner and held the 
various school offices. In politics he is a Republican, and both he and his 
wife are Universalists in religious belief. Farming has been the chief 
occupation of Mr. Noel since boyhood and he shows a thorough understanding of 
the business. His estate bears excellent improvements, and good cheer abounds 
within the dwelling, whose occupants are held in good repute by all who know 
them.
