     Daniel Arnold was born on 13 January 1798 at Franklin Co., PA; son of Samuel and Barbara (Overholtzer) Arnold.¹ He married Elizabeth Price, daughter of Rev.

Carroll.¹ He died on 17 September 1857 at Mt. Carroll, Carroll Co., IL, at age 59

Biographical sketch by P.A. White, JD (Findagrave.com):

Daniel Arnold was born on January 13, 1798, near Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, to Barbara Arnold nee Overholtzer, age 21, and Samuel Arnold, age 30.

Daniel's family was very important in the Dunker (AKA German Baptist, Brethren, Tunker, Dunkard) church. See, e.g., "The German Baptist Arnolds" by Lester H. Binnie (1990).

MARRIAGE

Daniel married Elizabeth "Betty" Price in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, on April 2, 1820, when he was 22 years old. Betty was a granddaughter of Johannes Jakob Preisz/Price (1724-1803) who became a follower of Alexander Mack and was a forceful minister in the early Church of the Brethren. Accordingly, the Price family figures prominently in historical accounts of the Dunker church in America, including extensive discussion in the 1941 book "Brethren in Northern Illinois and Wisconsin" by John Heckman and J. E. Miller.

Daniel and Betty had at least eight children between 1822 and 1840, all of them born in Franklin County, Pennsylvania.

ILLINOIS

The couple's youngest, Simon, was just a newborn when the Arnolds left Pennsylvania in May 1840 bound for northwest Illinois where David Emmert (1804-1857) and other Dunkers had recently settled. David Emmert's wife, Susan (1807-1888), was Betty's younger sister.

In June 1840 Daniel and Betty purchased 260 acres northeast of Mount Carroll, at what was then known as Swaggert's Grove, but which ever after was known as Arnold's Grove. The family initially moved into the log house measuring 14 feet by 18 feet in which Mr. Swaggert had lived. In time, however, Daniel built the family a more commodious dwelling.

A CHILD'S DEATH

On July 1, 1840, only a few weeks after they had taken up their abode in the old Swaggert log cabin, Daniel Jr. sickened and died. He was just 10 years old.

On a hill about eighty rods north of the cabin a wound was made in the Earth, and the boy's remains were laid to rest there. There was no ordained Brethren preacher yet, so the father probably read over the boy's grave in his role as the small religious community's lay leader. Young Daniel's resting place became for a time the church's cemetery.

MORE FAMILY ARRIVES

In the earliest days Daniel served as lay leader of deep-seated religious character. He led church services in the family home, and then in the new Arnold's Grove schoolhouse.

Betty's older sister, Mary, arrived in Carroll County, Illinois in 1841 with her husband, Henry Strickler, and their younger children. The Stricklers bought a farm adjoining the Arnold farm and their residences were not far apart. And since he was already a minister when he arrived in Illinois, Henry Stricker assumed charge of the Arnold's Grove Church and helped shepherd it growth.

O DEATH

Daniel died on September 15, 1857, in Arnold's Grove, Freedom Township, Illinois, when he was 59 years old. His remains were laid to rest near his son's in the old church cemetery on the Arnold farm.

EPILOGUE

We think that with her children grown, the widowed Betty moved into the home of her sister, Susan, in nearby Mount Carroll. Susan herself had been widowed when her husband, David, died suddenly on September 30, 1857.

Betty followed Daniel to reward in 1862. While some family historians think her remains were buried in the nearby new church cemetery on higher ground, as of January 2022 we believe Betty's remains were interred near her husband's and son's graves in the old cemetery. Our reasoning includes the fact that burials in the old cemetery continued until 1882, and included Betty's daughters Mary in 1868 and Susannah in 1880.¹
