I am interested in finding out about my grandmother Clara
Noon Miller's youngest brother Benjamin Noon, who went to
Argentina around 1910. Can anyone tell me where to start?

Bill Silverman asked where to start his search for records
in Argentina for Benjamin NOON, and the moderator suggested
the InfoFile on genealogical research in Argentina and the
Latin American Special Interest Group.

When time comes for any Genner to trace records in Spanish
speaking countries, please remember that Spanish phonetics are
different... So consider that when transliteration or spelling
changes are involved, the final result may be different from
what you would expect "thinking English".
In this specific case, NOON may well have become NUN, a
spelling more compatible with Spanish phonetics. The "u" is
pronounced almost like the "oo" in "noon", but shorter, and
not as the "u" in "fun" or "nun".
There is a multiple source last names' listing on-line
including different Buenos Aires' Jewish cemeteries and a list
of marriages, available at the web-page for the Argentine
Association of Jewish Genealogy. There are 2 NUN burials
indicated for the Liniers Cemetery, and no NOON records in
the same on-line database. The updated link for the Argentine
Association of Jewish Genealogy is http://www.agja.org.ar
Liniers and other Greater Buenos Aires' cemeteries include
burials of persons deceased in Buenos Aires and other cities/
towns. The 19th century opposition to the establishment of
Jewish cemeteries inside the Buenos Aires city jurisdiction
would not be tolerated today, but was strong enough then:
There are no Jewish cemeteries inside the autonomous Buenos
Aires city (Federal Capital) - only in the Greater B.A. area
surrounding the city, in the jurisdiction of the Buenos Aires
province.
There are 11 NOON phones and 23 NUN phones in my white pages
CD - with the NUN first names more vaguely Jewish, and the
NOON first names more vaguely non-Jewish.
Hope this helps,
