Noel Loomis

Noel Loomis (April 3, 1905 – September 7, 1969) was an American writer, principally of western, mystery and science-fiction.

Born and raised in the American West, he was sufficiently familiar with that territory to write a useful history of the Wells Fargo company.

[2][3] Noel Loomis was born Noel Miller Loomis on April 3, 1905, in the Oklahoma Territory town of Wakita, in the Cherokee Strip, and raised in Texico, in the New Mexico Territory, and in the West Texas town of Slaton.

In later life he lived in Decanso, in the San Diego, California, Back Country from 1956.

There is evidence that he had a first wife named Johnie or Jonie, who was the mother of his children.
