Truman Pratt Nobles was born to Arley Nobles and James Garnto. He was raised by his grandparents after the divorce of Arley and James Garnto. His grandfather refused to allow him to use his father's name, therefore most records for Pratt are listed as Nobles. In his will, he left his estate to his cousin Ila Nobles Pope and her husband Arthur T. Pope. Ila and her sister Nina were also raised by this set of grandparents. This will was contested by his 1/2 brothers, William Sessums Foskey (son of Arley and Arnold Foskey) and Hoke Smith Garnto, because his cousin Ila preceded him in death. Arthur T. Pope was awarded burial expenses he incurred to bring Pratt home to Georgia and inter him at this cemetery. The grave is one of several unmarked in the Nobles section. His 1/2 brothers split the remainder of his estate. Pratt never married or had any children. It is said he suffered exposure to poisonous gasses in WW1.
