"Robert was born about 1518, according to a deposition given when he was 80 years old. He was probably born at Urchfont, Wiltshire, England. He was the son of Nicholas Noyes and his wife, her name is not known. Robert married, about 1566, Joan Attridge. He inherited the lease of land in Cholderton from his brother Thomas, who had inherited it from their father. He was in court many times, he was forced to defend his right to the land in Cholderton from Cuthbert Reeves, who claimed to have bought the lease from Thomas. Robert purchased from John Thorneburgh, the patron of the parish of Cholderton, the right to advance one of his sons to the rectory of Cholderton diocese when it next became vacant. Robert's son William succeeded to the rectory of Cholderton diocese in 1601. Robert died sometime after 1599, the last time he was listed on the subsidy (tax) rolls in Cholderton. Robert must have been buried in the churchyard at St. Nicholas' Church in Cholderton."
