Hi Everyone, I'm looking for any information regarding a group of Arnolds who lived in what is now Greenwood Co., SC (in the early 1800's it was still Abbeville Co.). This family lived in the Stoney Point and Cokesbury area and are: AUGUSTINE (or Augustin) ARNOLD, b. 1778 Culpeper Co., VA and his wife, Nancy Delph. Their children are: Dr. Willis E. Arnold; Fletcher Pearce Arnold; Wesley Arnold; and James (Jim) Arnold. This Augustine Arnold's parents are said to be William Arnold and Miss Davenport (Mary?) and they moved from Virginia into South Carolina about 1800. Here is the paragraph regarding this family that I found in a book . . . . Perrins, History Kentucky (1886) (Contributed by Lloyd Ramyer) page 636. Simpson County. Dr. W. E. Arnold was born March 5, 1808 in Abbeville County, South Carolina and is a son of Augustine and Nancy (Delph) Arnold, who were born and reared in Culpeper County, Virginia. Dr. Arnold is the second of six sons and daughters. His parents emigrated to and settled in South Carolina about 1800, where his father was engaged in mercantile pursuits and later in life on the farm, Augustine Arnold died in 1844, aged 61 years. He was a son of William Arnold, who was born and reared in Culpeper County, Virginia, William Arnold was a soldier and served through the great struggle for Independence; was present at the seige of Yorktown and at the Surrender. After the war he married Miss Davenport of Virginia, who was of English origin. William Arnold was the son of Rueben Arnold. Dr. Arnold was reared on a farm and educated at Cokesburg College, He remained with his parents until his marriage in February 1831 to Matilda Clifton of South Carolina. Miss Clifton was the daughter o! f William and ? (Deem) Clifton who were born and reared in Edgefield County, South Carolina and were of English descent. Dr. W. E. and Matilda Arnold had five children born of their union: Wesley P., William (deceased), James A., Henry (deceased), and Whiteman (deceased). Mrs. W. E. Arnold died in 1841 in Barren County, Kentucky, to which county our subject had moved in 1837, and engaged in teaching. In 1841 he commenced the practice of medicine with Dr. George W. Rodgers of Glasgow. In 1842, he located near Bowling Green, Kentucky. In October, 1841, he married Polly Ann Delph, of Barren County, Kentucky, a daughter of Merryman (native of South Carolina) and Lucinda (Taylor) Delph, who was a native of Hart County, Kentucky. Her father was an extensive farmer and also a merchant. Dr. Arnold had born to him by this union one child, Clark Arnold, now in Fort Worth, Texas, Mrs. W. B. Arnold the second died in October 1844 at the age of thirty. Dr. W. B. Arnold, while in Warren County, Kentucky, taught school and farmed some. In 1847, he located in Allen County, where he practiced medicine. In February 1845 he married Polly Ann Burge, daughter of Beverly and Ann (Jones) Burge of Warren County, Kentucky. Mrs. Arnold died in 1847, Dr. Arnold married for the fourth time, Miss Matilda Bradley of Sumner County, Tennessee. She is a daughter of David and Rebecca (Granger) Bradley. Two children were born to this marriage, Columbia Ann and Mary L. Arnold Mary L, died in 1853 at the age of two years. Columbia Ann married S. L. Casey in 1865. She had two children: Edith L. and George F. Casey. Their mother, Columbia Ann, died in Owensboro, Kentucky in 1870. In 1869 Dr. Arnold located in Owensboro, Kentucky, where he practiced his profession; in 1871, he located in Simpson County on 100 acres of good land, where he now resides. He and his wife are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church, He is also a Mason, and was a Grang! er. He cast his first presidential vote for Jackson in 1832. After 1840 he was a Whig, and since the war he has been a Democrat. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Karolyn Klaes
