Their story and life events

Their story

Mary Gibbs was the first wife of Isaac Chamberlain Noyes. Their family is preserved in the register of Temple, in western Maine near Farmington, through a sequence of five children: George Washington, born on January 25, 1805; Edwin, on November 9, 1806; Mary, on January 18, 1809; Louisa, on March 14, 1811; and Delia Adams, on September 10, 1813. The Noyes genealogy identifies Mary Gibbs as their mother. Maine was then a district of Massachusetts.

Those entries place her within a household raising children across at least eight years. Two sons were followed by three daughters, and the names George Washington and Delia Adams distinguish the family’s entries in the register. The birth list provides the strongest surviving view of Mary’s married household.

The memorial account dates her death to 1817. On that chronology, her daughter Mary was eight and the youngest recorded child, Delia, was still small. Isaac later married Rachel Worthley, and the town register records their children separately.

The family genealogy dates Mary’s marriage to Isaac at Sidney, Maine, to September 27, 1802.

Family accounts place her birth around 1785–1786, without establishing an exact birthday.
