Bio Notes: Thomas Noble Southorn was born in Glasgow on 28 April 1896, the son of Frank H Southorn, architect and his wife Jeannie Young Noble. He studied at Glasgow School of Architecture in 1913-14 and seems to have been seeking wider experience in Manchester when his father died in February 1921.
