T. J. and E. H. Noland, merchants, of Cross Timbers, Mo., were born in Polk County, 
Mo., in 1856 and November 6, 1852, respectively, being the sons of Robert G. and 
Charlotte (Hall) Noland, who were born in Kentucky and Tennessee.  The father grew 
to manhood in the "Blue Grass State," and at an early day emigrated to Missouri, 
locating in Polk County, where he entered land and engaged in merchandising, being 
a member of the firm of Hall, Noland & Co.  His father was born in the "Palmetto 
State," and, after emigrating to Kentucky at an early day and remaining there for
a number of years, he came to Missouri, where he spent the rest of his days.  T. J. 
Noland was the third of his parents' five children, and was reared to manhood in 
Polk and adjoining counties, obtaining a good education in the common and graded 
schools.  He was engaged in farming and stock trading until about 1881, when he 
embarked in his present business.  He is one of the original members of the firm 
of Heath, Noland & Co., and as such continues, their business netting them a good 
annual income.  The Noland Brothers now own the Garden City Flouring Mills, which, 
through their skill and enterprise, have been changed to full roller process.  They 
also own in two farms 400 acres of land.  In 1878 T. J. Noland was married to Miss 
Sarah E. Nease, who was born in Indiana, and the following are their children: Bertie, 
Eugene, Vernon V., and Ross.  Mr. Noland is a Democrat, and he and wife belong to the 
Methodist Episcopal Church.  E. H. Noland, of the above firm, remained in his native 
county until twelve years of age, and, after residing in Illinois with his mother for 
some time, returned to Missouri and continued to attend school until he acquired a 
good practical education.  Like his brother, he was first engaged in farming and 
stock trading, and in 1881 became connected with his present business, and is doing 
well financially.  He was first married to Miss Fanny E. Ihrig, by whom he had one 
daughter, Fanny F.  This wife died in 1882, and he took for his second wife Miss 
Ella Mohease, who has also borne him one child, Verde.  He and family are also 
members of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and he is a Democrat.
