James F. Arms

Armsville — 2009-09-09 01:30:46Z

Looking for information on James F. Arms born in NY on 8/22/1841, died in Marion County, Oregon on 5/31/1909, lived most of his life in Loyal County, Wisconsin. Married Ellen Churchill in 1868.

I'm trying to find James F.'s parents. According to his death certificate, his father was named Henry and was born in Massachusetts. According to census records, though, his father was born in New York. I can't find any records for a Henry Arms born in New York or Massachusetts who has a child names James. Perhaps Henry was a nickname for something else? According to census records his mother was also born in New York. No clue about her name or whether he had siblings.

I would love to trade information with you on this family. Thanks Norma nckarter@flash.net Helping grandson of STanley ARms brother to your George.

Re: Arms,Thomas

nckarter — 2009-01-30 09:21:21Z

I am just beginning to research this family for someone. Does anyone here know Kate's maiden name? Thomas's death certificate says unknown for parents names. Has anyone proven or have knowledge from elders that Samuel and Kate are Thomas's parents or is just supposition based on the census name and date matching for Thomas? If you would like to share please email me at nckarter@flash.net

Thanks Norma

Re: Clarence Arms

rdarms — 2008-10-05 00:46:01Z

I'm Robert D. Arms, son of Robert M. Arms, grandson of Clarence Arms from Sprinfield, then Saddlersville and Adams TN.

I'm email-able at rdarms@optonline.net if anyone wants to get in touch.

Re: Clarence Arms, Sadlersville, TN

rdarms — 2008-10-04 23:02:26Z

Lynn,

We're related I think. Clarence Arms of Saddlersville and Adams TN was my grandfather. His father's last name was Gladwell. He was not married to Clarence's mother as I understand it though. Clarence and siblings used their mother's last name, Arms. I carry that surname as well.

I've posted a few more details as I know them further in this link. Feel free to email me at rdarms@optonline.net if you'd like.

Re: Arms - Gladwell

rdarms — 2008-10-04 22:33:46Z

Daniel - that makes us related. My grandfather was the Clarence Arms from Saddlersville (and Adams TN).

My name is Robert D. Arms. My father was Robert M. Arms and my grandfather was Clarence Arms from Saddlersville (and Adams) TN, who died in about 1967 or so. Clarence was brother to Willard etc, who I remember my father talking about, as well as Bedford. My grandfather Clarence had 4 or 5 children, mostly girls, but my father, Robert M. was the youngest child and the only son of Clarence. Dad's siblings included Edith from St. Louis MO and Margaret (Bland) from Allensville KY. There were at least 2 other siblings as well. Clarence's first wife died soon after my dad was born, and Clarence remarried, to Clara, who had some kids of her own.

It is my understanding that Clarence's parents were not married but that it was a common law arrangement. Clarence and siblings used the last name of their mother, which was Arms. Their father was last name Gladwell.

My dad went into the Army and ended up moving to New Jersey where he married my mom, Marie. Dad (Robert M. Arms) passed in Jan 2000, but my mom as well as myself still live here in NJ.

Clarence's daughter Edith had 3 kids; one has since died but a son and daughter still live in the St Louis area. Clarence's daughter Maragaret had 3 children, Kenneth, Wayne, and Debbie. Wayne dies some years ago, but Kenneth and Debbie still live in KY. Both are grandparents now.

I don't read this string regularlry, so if you are anxious to get in touch, email me at rdarms@optonline.net

Mahala Arms

1finediner — 2007-09-22 15:57:36Z

I am trying to find information on Mahala - Selah Arms was married to Marietta Utter( Griffin)- Marietta is listed as mother to Selah Arms, Jr on IGS records - but he was born after Marietta died. Mahala is listed on the 1960 Michigan census with Selah, Sr. - I can't find her after that. If any one has information or a connection please let me know. She was born in Canada about 1819.

Re: Arms,Thomas

dagu123 — 2008-05-05 01:19:39Z

How much do you know about Samuel and Kate?
I know that Samuel came to the US in 1834 with another Samuel, possibly his father. The last name looks like it was ARMS. I do not know where he was born. Was he Swiss or German? Samuel's first wife died and he then married Kate. Possible second marriage for Kate as well. She had at least a daughter when she married Samuel. Together Samuel and Kate had Thomas and another son named George - not sure what ever happened to George. Do you know? Samuel died in 1890, he was living in the county infirmary. Not sure where Kate was in 1890, but later found her and her daughter in Arkansas. Arkansas is where Kate died and is buried.
Hope this helps.

Re: Arms,Thomas

dagu123 — 2008-05-05 00:23:07Z

I am a grand daughter of George Arms whose father was Thomas and Nancy (Gothard)Arm. I haven't been doing much genealogy lately, but I may be able to provide some information on Thomas' mother, Kate if were are searching the same family. A year or two ago I was in contact with a woman who had been helping a daughter of an Edward Arm. Daughter lived in Indiana and Edward in Florida? Any relation?

Also, I read your other posts and was wondering what your source was for determining that Thomas Arm's parents were Samuel and Kate. I am also trying to obtain date of death and place of burial for Nancy Arm, Thomas' wife.

Re: Arms,Thomas

DLLambert4 — 2008-05-05 09:57:56Z

I think you probably know more than I do. I know that Samuel was born approximate 1820 in Landiswil, Switzerland. His parents were also born in Switzerland. Kate was born in Ohio in approximately 1836. Have you checked for her in Tennessee?

No I have not really taken the time to check things out as far as George goes.

The Arms/Armes website on pbwiki is mine. 6 yrs of research is what i have on this wiki website. Some of the info i found is no longer on the internet. My brickwalls are the names of Bletcher Arms/Armes parents--is his father Joshua Armes? I am still trying to find his parents in N.C.

Re: Robert Edward Arms

Do you know if they had any sons? Maybe a son named Bletcher??

Re: Robert Edward Arms

CiCi69 — 2007-06-09 01:07:55Z

Do you remember where you saw Robert ARMS and son? I haven't been able to find anything. I mean I have found a few ARMS families but none with a son named Bletcher {or any spelling that comes close to Bletcher...even names that start with a B}. For all I know, Bletcher could've been a nickname or middle name. Thanks for your help.

Avery Family (1800-1860's) - Granby, Quebec

smithruss_1 — 2008-03-06 20:26:03Z

I have done extensive research on my family but am having difficulty with finding anything that can document this part of my lineage (church records, census, etc..)

I found much of the early Avery records in Abbotsford (Protestant) and later at Notre-Dame Granby from the Drouin Collection but unable to find many records from 1800-1860's.

Does anyone have access to any of the records for this time period (particularly the census records from this period).

William Avery & Martha Stewart

1. Charles Avery b. 6/26/1802
2. Lucinda (Avery) Whitney b. 3/26/1804
3. John Stewart Avery b. 10/14/1806
4. Mary Ann (Avery) Ball b. 3/6/1816

John Stewart Avery & Sophia Arms

1. Mary Jane Avery
2. William Henry Avery
3. Martha Avery
4. Lucinda Avery
5. Charles Avery*
6. Lucy Avery

*baptism record in Drouin.

Much of this information came from the Groton Avery Book but I have been unable to find actual documentation to acknowlegde the people and all of the dates. Any help you can provide would be appreciated. Thank you.

I am trying to find this family's ancestors, or any descendents. can anyone help please?

Re: Arms,Thomas

johnsmouse — 2008-05-05 00:46:04Z

I do believe that we are researching the same family line. The woman in Indiana would have been one of my aunts. Edward Arm(s) is my grandfather. my mother, Kathleen, was his daughter.

I used the 1880 Federal Census and matched it to the information I had already gotten.

Re: Arms/Gothard

johnsmouse — 2008-05-04 20:08:13Z

If you are lucky enough to find any information could you please share it. I have the parents of both of these people but nothing further back. Johnsmouse@aol.com

thank you

Re: Samuel Arm from Ohio

johnsmouse — 2008-05-04 20:04:45Z

what information do you need? I can tell you he was born around 1820 in Landswil, switzerland and was married to Kate ?

From the research I have done he would be my great-great-grandfather.

Re: Arms,Thomas

johnsmouse — 2008-05-04 19:59:12Z

If someone has any information on Thomas Arm can you please contact K.D.Johns (johnsmouse@aol.com)

I am the granddaughter of Edward Arm and the great-granddaughter of Thomas Arm.

I have been doing research on this side of my family for a while now but haven't gotten very far, maybe we can share information.

Thank You

There was a Robert Edward Arms who was born in Columbus, North Carolina in, I believe, 1893. At the time of his death, which I believe was 1959, he lived in Belmont, Gaston County, NC. However, he was married to June Flowers and had four sons and one daughter.
