Life

Noland was born in 1865 in Hanover County, Virginia.[1][2]

Noland was a fellow of the American Institute of Architects.[2] From 1897 to 1917, he was a partner in Noland and Baskervill, an architectural firm he co-founded with electrical engineer Henry Baskervill, and the two men built houses on Monument Avenue in Richmond, Virginia. They designed the wings of the Virginia State Capitol in 1903.[1] After the firm dissolved, Noland designed buildings and structures in his own right from 1920 to 1940, including churches in Richmond.[2]

Noland married Mary Bleecker Miller; they had a son, Nelson Berkeley Noland, and two daughters.[2] Noland died on August 18, 1951, in Richmond.[1][2]
