Links lead to individual children's family bios.
The Nobles are founding members of Berkshire Glen, having moved originally in 2007. Robin was well known as the Employment Counselor, while Ben worked as a math and social studies teacher and the pastor of Berkshire Glen Christian Church. Their past church home in Nairobi, Kenya, came in need of missionaries, and the family returned to their home in Africa. In 2019, they returned to Berkshire Glen to enjoy retirement and their continuously growing family.
Robin Leann is the mother of eighteen children, most of who she homeschooled for many years. When her 15th child was conceived, she was diagnosed with breast cancer, though she survived with flying colors. She enjoys scrapbooking and photography, especially with her children aging and freeing up some time. (2/18/1961)
Benjamin Eric is a gentle and godly man who has supported his family through teaching, pastoring, mission support, real estate investments, and ownership of several cell towers. Ben adores spending his time researching for his sermons and training our children in God’s word. He has invested many hours in raising and training his children and imparting useful skills like carpentry and handiwork. In 1995 he felt called to mission work in Africa, which he and Robin fell in love with. Their children have been raised between the US and Africa, coming to know both cultures and languages well. (11/8/1958)
Tyce, Theo, Trenton, Talon, Tucker, Trishelle, and Tristan are grown and living on their own, some with families. See above for links to their bios.
On 12/6/07, Teague Elisha, the third child, died in a motorcycle accident. He was known as joyful and humorous, and not a little mischievous. When in BG, the Nobles visit his grave each year on his birthday, though they are comforted he is with Jesus (12/6/1985).
Titus Christian has been one of the more challenging Nobles to raise. His sense of humor and mischief has brought his family joy as well as frustration. In his youth he had a hard time focusing on work and maintaining responsibility. The loss of his brother Teague was particularly hard on him, due to their similarities and close relationship, and led to some acting out in his teen years. Now in his 20s, Titus maintains his humor, but has found a niche teaching swimming lessons while he is deciding his next steps. (1/29/1995)
Tanner Steven is a peacemaker with a meek personality. He still enjoys journalism and writes for the local news sources. He enjoys being involved with his college age groups at church, playing guitar for their meetings and leading devotionals. (10/25/1996)
Tate Preston continues to love the stage and keeps up his skills in tap and lyrical dance. His natural charm has come to good use as a car salesman. He's one of the good ones. (4/17/1999)
Tallahassee Morgan continues to write short stories and keeps a blog. She has a lot of opinions. She plays basketball and volleyball. (9/2/2000)
Teran Xavier works at the public library, where he can find something new to read every day. He loves Harry Potter week and is the go-to for all things wizard. (8/6/2001)
Tobiah Gavin is a teenager now and still learning how to cope with his place on the autism spectrum, formerly known as Asperberger's syndrome. He is still a video game fanatic, which both helps direct him while also making it difficult to get his attention. (1/16/2004)
Teenage years have been a strain on Tia Rochelle as she struggles for confidence and self-esteem. She has abandoned her mud pies for real ones and flower crowns for fake eyelashes. She is eager to be social and be desired. Her parents continue to guide her in patience. (7/12/2005)
Temple Naomi and Trinity Pearl were born 6/7/2009. They are fraternal twins.
Temple was given the nickname Tootsie because of her incessant sweet tooth. She gladly tests out Tia's pies. She has no apprehension in her nature and wants to know all the dirt. She gets it, too.
Trinity earned nickname Trixie because she tends to be our mischievous one. She went from being Tia's shadow to taking lessons from Titus. While Titus has matured, Trixie has a way to go. Don't be fooled by the sweet demeanor.
The 18th and final of Ben and Robin's children is Trace Robert, born on his mother's birthday 2/18/2011. He was born at home in Berkshire Glen with many friends and family in attendance. He is very interested in music and is concerned with looking put together. He has perfect manners and is a voice of reason in chaos.
