General Notes: Husband - Andrew Arnold


He was born and reared near Kittanning, Pennsylvania, where he successfully operated a large tannery for over forty years. He was an old-line whig, a member and trustee of the Presbyterian church.

He came from Connecticut and settled in western Pennsylvania at an early date, his home being situated on the site that was later the town of Arnold. A part of the estate was subsequently donated to the Pennsylvania Railroad as a right of way by the Arnolds, and the company placed a station there which it named in honor of the family.
