Photographs: Hendersonville, North Carolina (1926)

Below are some of my photographs of the Noble children when they lived in Hendersonville, North Carolina circa 1926. Robert Noble took a job as chef at the Kentucky Home Hotel, where they met Jack Dempsey and his wife Estelle Taylor. The kids posed for pictures with sports writers, Jack Dempsey's sparring partner, et al, when Dempsey set up a training camp there. There were lots of visitors from out of town. I'll add more photos after I scan them.
