  1. 12.  Noah Boyett was born on 18 Nov 1830 in Alabama (son of Ethel Dred Boyett and Sarah Ann Saucer); died on 30 May 1897 in Erin, Jasper County, Texas.

    Notes:

    Copied from the website of Ruby Boyett Burkett:

    "In the end, Grand-father Noah left everything he owned to his younger son, James Noah. The copies of the legal papers we have, plainly state, in a will written on May 15, 1897:

    First, it is my will that all of my just debts and funeral expenses be paid as soon as convenient after my death.

    Second, it is my will that the said J. N. Boyett, my son, have all my interest in the homestead of one hundred and four acres of land, part of the N. Kelley and part of the A. C. Parmer , said interest to include all the improvements, such as houses, barns etc. After checking birth and death dates, I now know that James Noah was 23 years old when his father willed him all his property and that he was 39 years old when he died so he owned the place about 16 years, depending on whether he sold it or his wife sold it after his death.

    I hereby appoint my brother L. B. Boyett executor of this my last will and it is further my will that no action be taken in the probate court except proof of this will, and filing an inventory of this the property, and no bond be required of my executor. In the testimony of all which I sign my name hereto in the presence of M. Morgan and William Turner.

    So this will was written on May 15, 1897 and fifteen days later, on May 30, 1897, Grand-father Noah Boyett, passed from this earth and was buried beside his beloved wife, Susan, there beside their "Old Boyett Homestead" in Erin, Jasper Co., Texas, where they had lived, loved and reared their large family. They would never know that only one more of their children would be buried there beside them in the quiet of the beautiful countryside they loved so much---the place where they had experienced happy time, times of sorrow, times of loneliness and all the spectrum of emotions, which come to a married couple as they struggle through a lifetime of rearing a family. This pioneering couple also experienced the dreaded separation couples have feared down through the ages? that of war time. Noah was called away to serve in the Civil War. He had to leave his wife and children but fortunately, lived to return home to them. Many others, from that area of Jasper Co., were not as fortunate. They were buried in far away places, never to return to their families."
