Noah was in Overton County before 1845, when he was a Justice of the Peace taking depositions in a suit involving James Peek, who is identified in the transcript as his brother-in-law. That makes Cerena Lane his sister. She married James approximately 1839, and given that she was only 16 at the time, her family was likely in the area by then.
