History and Origin
The origin of Noons is a bit controversial, as some them as descendants of the Tiwana Rajput clan,. The Noons claim to be closely related to the Tiwana Muslim Rajput tribe from Mitha Tiwana, and are largely settled in the Sargodha and Multan areas of Pakistani Punjab. In addition to the Tiwanas, they are closely allied to the Awan, Bandial and Piracha tribes in Pakistan. By profession, most of the Noons are rural agriculturists.

“Someone had literally run to earth
In an old cellar hole in a byroad
The origin of all the family there.
Thence they were sprung, so numerous a tribe
That now not all the houses left in town
Made shift to shelter them without the help
Of here and there a tent in grove and orchard.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
