Noble Theodosia Beall - Nobie - was the daughter of James Morris Beall and Martha "Mattie" E. Hughes. She was born 10 Jul 1878 in Carrollton, Carroll County, Georgia and died 21 Jan 1969 in Bibb County, Georgia
Nobie Belle first married Rev. Frank L. Ward in 1914, he died in 1916.
After his death, she married Franklin Marion Dykes. They were wed on 4 Nov 1927 in Wilkinson County, Georgia.
Nobie was a very devout Christian woman and wrote the lyrics to several hymns such as My Shepherd is the Lord, and Trust (aka He Knoweth Best). These were published in several hymnals and in Bright Beautiful Bells, which was published by her first cousin, Benjamin B. Beall. She also wrote, "Not I, But Christ", published 1957 by Stone Mountain Litho Co., 56 pages. This was a group of inspriation poems expessing the poet's strong religious faith.
Some additional hymns she wrote, or helped write were:
"Why cannot you? "/ Mrs. Nobie Beall Dykes ; John O. Beall - publishedd in " Gospel story : for singing schools, singing conventions, etc."
"Our Normal School" from Songs of Southern Colleges and Old Southern Melodies
"Your Record Will Be There / Writers, John O. Beall & Mrs. Nobie Beall Dykes.
"She is a gifted person, anointed with the oil of gladness, triumphant over pain and to me .: one of the choice spirits of the Class of ' 1909 of the State Normal School" - written about Nobie by classmate Miss Anne Wilde Walker. The song, Our Normal School, was sung from 1909 until the school was closed.
I am not 1000 per cent sure that she is buried here, but her husband is, and it makes since that she would be buried by his side.
I am not positive that this is her final resting place, but it seems likely, as her husband is buried here. I will change locations if a tombstone, or other information is found.
