  • The Arnold Family of Montgomery County
    The Arnold Family of Montgomery County The history of the Arnold family in Montgomery County, Texas, begins with Dr. Epaphras Joseph Arnold who arrived in the Republic of Texas from New Orleans in late 1836 or early 1837(1) and proceeded to form a partnership with Dr. James H. Price. The two doctors established their practice in the town of Montgomery in about 1839(2) Eliphalet Lester Arnold, Sr., an older brother of Epaphras arrived in Montgomery County with his family in about 1840. The Arnold brothers were born to Samuel Arnold (1779-1866) and Hope Shailer Arnold (1783-1862) in the town of Haddam in Middlesex County, Connecticut(3) and were part of the sixth generation of Arnolds to be born in that community. Their fourth great-grandfather, Joseph Arnold (1625-1691) was one of the earliest merchants in Connecticut and a founder of Haddam. Joseph’s father, John Arnold (1585-1664) and his uncle, William Arnold (1587-1676) were born in the village of Ilchester Somerset County, England and immigrated to Massachusetts in about 1635.(4) While John made his place in American history as a founder of the town of Hartford, Connecticut, it is William’s descendants that forever marked the Arnold name. Six of William Arnold’s descendants carried the name Benedict Arnold. The most notable of these were Benedict Arnold I, who was president and governor of the Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, and General Benedict Arnold V, who was labeled as a traitor in American history for his service in the British Army during the American Revolution.

January Benedict Arnold 3, 1740][1][2] – June 14, 1801) was an American military officer who served as a general during the American Revolutionary War, fighting for the American Continental Army before defecting to the British in 1780. George Washington had given him his fullest trust and placed him in command of the fortifications at West Point, New York. Arnold planned to surrender the fort to British forces, but the plot was discovered in September 1780 and he fled to the British. His name quickly became a byword in the United States for treason and betrayal because he led the British army in battle against the very men whom he had once commanded.[3] Arnold was born in the Connecticut Colony and was Arnold in American uniform, engraved by H. B. Hall, after a merchant operating ships on the Atlantic Ocean John Trumbull when the war began in 1775.

  • 1 SIX CAPTAINS from CONNECTICUT Seth Warner
    SIX CAPTAINS FROM CONNECTICUT This article presents information on six important captains of the seventeen American vessels that were involved in the October 12-14, 1776, Revolutionary War Battle of Valcour Island on Lake Champlain. The commander of the American fleet that participated in that battle was Brigadier General Benedict Arnold from New Haven. Although Arnold’s fleet was outgunned and outmanned by the British, Arnold’s heroic actions at Valcour Island stopped the British from capturing the forts on Lake Champlain in 1776 and delayed the British advance until the spring of 1777. In that year, the British made a major advance south on Lake Champlain but even with an extensive army they were stopped by the Americans in the Battle of Saratoga in September and October of 1777. Many historians argue that the Battle of Valcour Island saved the Revolution. This was because in 1776 the Northern American Army was in total disarray after its disastrous failure to conquer Canada and its retreat from Canada in June of 1776 with a ragged remnants of an Army suffering from disease and expiring enlistments. As a result, the Lake Champlain region was vulnerable to a British invasion with the 8000 reinforcement troops that arrived from England in June of 1776. Naval historian A. T. Mahan stated that “Never had any force, big or small, lived to better purpose or died more gloriously, for it saved the Lake for that year.” 1 Since Benedict Arnold was from Connecticut, it is not surprising that more than one third of the vessels under his command were commanded by experienced sea faring men from Connecticut.
