  • Notes 
    • From Robert P. Reid

      Arnold had gone to Detroit where he drove an ice wagon. He later moved to Sebewaing and did carpentry work. His wife, Katherine (Katie) Wagner had come from there. It was here that he lost his arm when it was crushed in an accident because he had it out the open window of the truck. They had several children - Marian, Helma, Louis (lived nine months), [...], Ruby and [...]. They moved to Florida from here to the New Port Ritchie area. Arnold died Nov. 13, 1962 and is buried in New Port Ritchie. Aunt Katie lived until October 3, 1970. She is buried in Michigan.
