1 ARNOLD, ELISHA Adams, Berkshire County [1] ELISHA ARNOLD, son of David and Mercy (Whipple) Arnold, was born in Glocester, Providence County, Rhode Island, about 1754, [2] He died in Adams, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, on 27 May 1838 [3] and was buried in the Lime Street Cemetery there. [4] Elisha married, probably in Rhode Island ca. 1783, ROBA BALLOU. [5] She was born in Cumberland, Providence County, Rhode Island, on 15 May 1761, daughter of Stephen and Mehitable (Cook) Ballou, [6] and she died in Adams on 18 December [7] Elisha was a veteran of the Revolution. Various versions of his service exist, each giving different accounts. The first description is based upon his application for a pension. In this version Elisha states he was first drafted in Adams in 1777 by Captain Phillipe Mason. He detailed they marched to Albany and joined Captain Bailey s regiment and from there went to Fort George in New York. They then went up the Mohawk to Highwater [New York] and were at the taking of Burgoyne in Saratoga on 17 October 1777, after which they went to Valley Forge and Philadelphia. Continuing, Elisha said he had enlisted again in Adams on 1 May 1781 with Captain Stephen Clapp and 2nd Lieutenant Matthew Smith of the Continental Army and was discharged on 7 January 1782 in New Windsor U.S. Census, Adams, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, roll 4, p. 23, one male over 16 and four females. 2 Richard H. Benson, The Arnold Family of Smithfield, Rhode Island (Boston: Newbury Street Press, 2009), 292, says 1754, citing the William B. Brown Collection at the Berkshire Athenaeum, microfilm at NEHGS. E. Richardson, History of Woonsocket (Woonsocket, R.I.,: S. S. Foss, 1876), 200, lists him with his parents. In his declaration on 10 October 1832, Elisha said he was age 76 [thus born ca. 1756] and born in Gloucester, Rhode Island (Revolutionary War Pension File, Elisha Arnold, S28974). He was not the Elisha Arnold recorded in Uxbridge, Worcester County, Massachusetts, as born on 24 April That man died in Uxbridge on 23 June 1826 aged 70 (Vital Records of Uxbridge, Massachusetts, to the Year 1850 (Boston: NEHGS, 1916), 25 (birth), 356 (death), from records of Uxbridge Monthly Meeting, which includes Quakers from a large region.

2 2 Elisha Arnold of Adams, Berkshire County [Orange County, New York]. During this enlistment he indicated that we found the Army at Dobbs Ferry [New York] and from there we went to Virginia and that he was at the taking of Cornwallis at Yorktown on 19 October Because Elisha could not be found on any roll of military service, he was required to produce two witnesses who could attest to his claims in order to complete his application. He was able to fulfill this request with the testimonies of Samuel Salsbury and Isaac Warren and was granted a pension of $37.38 payable twice per year for his service. [8] Despite having to produce witnesses to obtain his pension, he can be found in the muster roll of Brigadier General Ebenezer Learned s Brigade, 4th Division, 2nd Massachusetts Regiment. It shows Elisha was a private who enlisted on 15 May 1777, was at Valley Forge in December 1777, and was later discharged 16 January [9] A minimal account of his service in 1780 appears in Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution: Arnold, Elisha, East Hoosac [now Adams]. Private, Capt. Samuel Low's co., Col. Benjamin Symonds's (Berkshire Co.) regt.; enlisted Oct. 27, 1780; discharged Oct. 28, 1780; service, 2 days, on an alarm at the Northward by order of Gen. Fellows; also, Capt. Stratton's co., Col. Simonds's regt.; return of men drafted from Berkshire Co. militia who marched to Horse Neck [year not given]; reported failed to join regiment. [10] On 1 October 1798, Elisha was taxed on a house and two pieces of land totaling 180 acres in Adams. [11] He must have received land from the town, or simply didn t record purchases. On 12 May 1838, only two weeks before his death, he sold to Elisha Arnold Jr. of Adams for $1800 two pieces of land, the north half of lot 53 in the second division (a hundred acres), and twenty acres in lot 9. [12] Lot number 53 where Elisha built his home not only had a fine stand of timber but it was crossed by Southwick Brook. The brook, with its great fall, furnished water power for his saw mill business. The lot s location was further enhanced by two roads running through it, giving access to timber lands. After the death of Elisha Sr., his son continued to live on the farm and operate the saw mill. The business begun by Elisha continued in the Arnold family for the next seven generations.

3 Elisha Arnold of Adams, Berkshire County 3 In a description of Elisha, his great-grandson Dr. William Olney Jenks, said that during his military service Elisha lost his hearing as a result of swimming in a cold stream to forage in a garden, and as he could shoe horses, he was detailed as a farrier and shod Gen. Washington s horse. Dr. Jenks further described Elisha as a man of irascible nature who was often annoyed by his two grandsons, Joel and Isaac Sherman, who had come to live with him after the death of their father in According to Dr. Jenks, the two boys liked to build dams in Elisha s favorite fishing streams causing him to continually be on search and destroy missions to thwart their creations. [14] There is no probate for Elisha in Berkshire County. Children of Elisha and Roba (Ballou) Arnold, all but the first child born in Adams: i. HANNAH ARNOLD, b. R.I. 23 Feb. 1784; [15] d. 3 Feb. 1845, bur. McFarland Cemetery, Bainbridge, Geauga Co., Ohio; [16] m. probably by 1805, [17] JONATHAN MCFARLAND, b. North Adams, Mass., 24 Feb. 1786, son of The article is an interview with Bob Arnold, a descendant of Elisha, who briefly describes the history of the Arnold Lumber Company. 14 Dr. William Olney Jenks, Memoirs of Linden and Achsah Jenks (Cleveland, Ohio, ca. 1925), 4 5, in possession of the author of this sketch, who is donating a copy to NEHGS. Dr. Jenks was the son of Linden and Achsah (Sherman) Jenks. Linden Jenks was the son of Charles Jenks and grandson of Edmund Jenks whose sketch appears in this database (William B. Browne, Genealogy of the Jenks Family of America [Concord, N.H.: Rumford Press, 1952], 67, , 249). Linden s wife was a sister of Isaac and Joel Sherman (Roy V. Sherman, Some of the Descendants of Philip Sherman [Akron, Ohio: the author, 1968], 296). Their mother, Abigail Nabby (Arnold) Sherman, is treated here as the daughter of Elisha Arnold. On 30 November 1814, Nabby Sherman of Clarksburg, Berkshire County, posted bond (with [her father] Elisha Arnold and [her brother-in-law] Lemuel Southwick of Adams as sureties) as guardian of Laura, Achsah, Joel and Isaac, minor children of Isaac Sherman late of Clarksburg (Berkshire County Probate, 19:71). The only other probate record for Isaac is his inventory on the same page. As a result, the two boys, Isaac Jr. and Joel Ballou Sherman, were raised by their maternal grandparents, Elisha and Roba (Ballou) Arnold.

The latter says, Following his discharge from the army, he [Elisha] went to Rhode Island and married Rhody Ballou. After the birth of their first child, the young couple came to Adams. 16 Photograph of the gravestone online at FindaGrave.com, the age not legible; Foster, Foster-Kishel-McFarland, Their son Alanson McFarland was born in Massachusetts, ca (unsourced annotation online at FindaGrave.com, McFarland Cemetery). Foster, Foster-Kishel-McFarland, 64, lists Alanson as their first child and gives a date of death; B. W. Jenks, The Clan McFarland (Chagrin Falls, Ohio, 1933) 15, copy in possession of a Jenks descendant, 15, says he was born in B. W. Jenks [Bennett William] was a grandson of Jonathan and Hannah (Arnold) McFarland. The Jona McFarland household in the 1820 U.S. Census, Bainbridge, Geauga County, Ohio, roll 91, p. 95, shows two males under 10 who were likely Alanson and Shubael Jenks McFarland. The latter, as S. J. McFarland, was also buried in the McFarland Cemetery (photograph of the monument online at FindaGrave.com).
