      Noah STAATS - was born October 23, 1804, in what is now Wood county, West Virginia. He was a son of Elijah and Margaret (Atkier) Staats, long since deceased.

His marriage was consummated in Meigs county, Ohio, Harriet Bradfield becoming his wife there, on the 10th of May, 1832. She was a daughter of Zachariah and Mary (Wells) Bradfield, and was born in Hardy county, now in West Virginia, the date of her birth, April 1, 1809. For two years, 1863-5, Noah Staats filled the office of justice of the peace in his township.
