• Name	William NOYES  [1, 2]
  	He was instituted rector of Cholderton in 1602, and continued so for about 20 years. William Noyes departed this life about 1616, and his son, Nathan Noyes, succeeded him to the rectorship and continued so for 32 years, dying in 1651, Sep. 6, aged 54 years. [1] Rev. William Noyes, born in 1568, died in Cholderton, county, Wilts, England, before the 30th of April, 1622. His brother, Richard Noyes, of Cholderton, yeoman, made his will 25 August, 1639, in which he mentions widow Sara. Another brother, Robert Noyes, yeoman, born in 1570, died 20 January, 1650, and was buried at Cholderton. The will of Richard Noyes of Manningford Bruce, in the diocese of Sara, 2 February, 1590, mentions "the sons of Robert Noyes of Cholderton.". This Robert may have been the father of William, Richard, and Robert Noyes. Richard Noyes of Manningford Bruce was son of William Noyes of Urchfont, yeoman (will 1557), who purchased the prebend of Urchfont in 1540, from the Earl of Hertford, afterwards Protector Somerset. The Noyes family of Urchfont was of the same stock as that of Cholderton. Cholderton is about eleven miles from Salisbury, and near by is Wilton House, the seat of the Earl of Pembroke. James Frazier, in 1847, was rector of Cholderton, and in 1870 Bishop of Manchester, William Stubbs, in 175, was rector of Cholderton, Bishop of Chester in 1884, and Bishop of Oxford in 1888. The advowson of the rectory of Cholderton now belongs to the Provost and Fellows of Oriel College, Oxford, having come into their possession in 1698. William Noyes was born in England, and matriculated at University College, Oxford, 15 November, 1588, being admitted to the B.A. degree 31 May, 1592. He was instituted rector of Cholderton in 1602, and married Anne Parker about 1595. The inventory of his estate was made 30 April, 1622, and his widow Anne appointed administratrix, 28 May, 1622. His wife was born 1575, and buried at Cholderton, 7 March, 1657. Her will mentions "sons James and Nicholas, now in New England, and son-in-law Thomas Kent, of upper Wallup, England." [2]
