Noah H Vinyard was born circa 1815 in Botetourt County, Virginia, to Tabler Vinyard and Jane Logan. He was the third of ten children. Noah was the grandson of Christian Weinert-Vinyard and Anna Christina Tabler, who were both born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, having immigrated from Westphalia, Germany and Hassloch, Pfalz, Bavaria. Christian's children took the Americanized form of the Weinert surname, Vineyard, or as with some branches of the family, Vinyard.
Noah married Caroline Knott in 1852 in Botetourt County, Virginia and was the father of four children before losing his life in the Civil War. He was living in Chattanooga, Tennessee at the beginning of the war, just a few miles north of where his brother Tabler Christian Vinyard lived in Walker County, Georgia. It was years later that his family finally learned of his fate from an article published about the prisoners who died at Camp Morton. His daughter died shortly after discovering what had happened to her father. His wife Caroline died without ever knowing where or when her husband had met his death.
Died as a Confederate Prisoner of War at Camp Morton, originally interred at Green Lawn Cemetery (Confederate Section), but reinterred in 1933 in a mass grave of 1616 Confederate POW'S at Crown Hill.
