Noah Maples was the husband of Virginia
Rebecca 'Langston'Maples. They were the
parents of 3 children:
Nancy Elizabeth, Unknown first name,.. Maples,
and Thomas Maples. More than likely, there
were more children in this family?

Some Maples' family members and reserachers
have Noah and Josiah listed as brothers. I
have been in contact w/several, one being
Charles from Pigeon Forge. He was a member
of the Historical Soc., and he had research
his Maples family for many years. He
had this information for the Maples' family
members. Sadly, Charles is no longer w/us,
but he had sent a great many
pages of his research to me about the family
ties about 6/7 years ago to me. I have
received records from many other family
researches listing him as being the son of
William Maples and Prudence Comstock. Stephen
Maples being William's father and his mother
being listed as Patence Fargo.

The debate will continue, I'm sure! I
record from the original document I have
in my possession on her lineage.

NOTE: This information is documented in
a handwritten history page by Nancy
Elizabeth's grandson, Rev. Robert H.
Long, son of Maples Long and Mahala
'Atchley' Long. The document was found
with some other original's and pages
from his old Bible recently. In this,
he wrote that his grandmother's parents
were Noah Maples and Rebecca, also going
on to call them "my great grandparents."
Rev. Robert H. Long was born in Sevier Co.,
Tennessee. The document is now in the
possession of Phyllis 'Long' Rhodes.
