James Arwood, died 6 May 1865

Bruce_Blackwell — 24 May 2008 11:05:00 GMT

Doing research on Civil War in NC. Last Union soldier to die east of the Mississippi was James Arwood, member of the 2nd NC Union Mounted Infantry. Killed at the skirmish at White Sulphur Springs in Haywood Co, NC. Three days before the last Confederates surrendered. Does anyone know his family. His Yankee unit was raised from Union sympathizers in the NC Mountains.

E. Laval Arwood in GA

roseparks13 — 7 Jan 2006 7:43:18 GMT

My G-grandmother Louisa Tedder said she was married to E. Laval Arwood about 1860 in Cobb or Cherokee Co., GA and had Theodore N. 1861 and James A. 1862 and Laval died in the Battle of Stone Mountain in 1864.
I find Arwoods in Cobb and Cherokee Counties but not him and neither can I find a CSA record for him.
I find 2 males not belonging to the John Evans Arwood family, Tolliver age 25 NC and William age 22 b. Ga. Tolliver is married and has son Theodore born 1859.
Louisa married again in 1869 and the Arwood boys and the Medford family all came to Texas in 1872. I know these boys exist, just where was the father?

Willie Kate Arwood death date

BOody — 22 Oct 2006 5:42:35 GMT

I am looking for a death date for Willie Kate Arwood, wife of Turle Rethel Arwood. A friend of mine is wanting to put her death date on her tombstone, and he asked me to try to find her death date, but so far I haven't had much luck. I've checked the SSDI, but she was not listed. I have tried to find an obituary for her, but again, no luck. All I have been able to find out is that she died pretty soon after her husband, who died June 1975. So so far all I have is that she died late 1975 or early 1976 in Sevier Co., TN. She is buried in Alder Branch Cemetery in Sevier Co., TN. If anyone out there could be of any help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any help anyone might be able to give me.,

My husband's grandmother was an Arwood. Her name was Ola Arwood. She was born on Jan. 9, 1892. Her parents were Caroline Alice and Bruce B. Arwood born May 17, 1857. They are both buried in Morristown, Tennessee. Ola Arwood married Arcus Lee Sparks and lived and is buried in Anniston, Alabama. Ola had four sisters: Dora, Jessie, Helen, and Edwina.

My grandfather, Aubrey Arwood, came to Lansing, Michigan in the late 20's. He and my Grandmother, Pluma (Silvey) Arwood were married and lived for a time in Cullman, AL. My grandfather died in 1944 at an early age. Efforts to learn about his birthplace and other relatives have proved nearly useless. It is thought that he came from N. Carolina. My grandmother died at 92 years of age and would not divulge any information. My Father was young when his dad died and knows little. Aunts and Uncles are dead. Any clues?
