General Notes: Husband - James S. Arthur


He passed his early life on the home farm, being educated in the subscription and district schools of the period. After marriage he settled on the homestead farm, consisting of 110 acres. This farm was underlaid with a valuable six-foot vein of coal, and the mines had been opened on the farm for a number of years, Mr. Arthur's ancestors having been active coal merchants. The mines were continued under operation by J. S. Arthur & Sons. Mr. Arthur took an active part in politics, voting with the Democratic party.
