Some Famous People called John Noland
John Noland
John Noland (1844 – June 25, 1908) was an enslaved man who was the personal servant of bushwhacker William C. Quantrill during the American Civil War. Noland was a chattel slave owned by Francis Asbury Noland in Jackson County, Missouri.
In 1863, Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation which did not apply to border states like Missouri. Slavery was still legal there and in Kansas where many of Quantrill's actions occurred. There is no conclusive evidence Asbury Noland freed Noland. That same year, Noland may have helped with scouting Lawrence, Kansas before the massacre by Quantrill's men which killed over 143 people.
