  • Notes 
    • He may be the Philip Arnold who bought at public auction part of the land of Jonathan Remington in 1741. (See notes for his brother-in-law Jonathan Remington.)

      Philip Arnold, son of Stephen Arnold, was a land owner in the town of Warwick, near Natick, where he resided until death.
      (source: History of the state of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations: Biographical; NY: The American Historical Society, Inc., 1920; pp 64 & 65)

      The will of Philip Arnold of Warwick, Esq, is dated 30 May 1749 and proved 14 Aug 1749. It mentions wife Susanna; sons Thomas, Benjamin, Philip, Joseph, Gideon, and Jonathan; dtrs Susanna, Mary, Elizabeth, Sarah, & Hannah.

      Several family trees online show two wives for Philip, both named Susanna, with the youngest son Jonathan being born of the second wife. The will of Philip's wife Susanna was proved in 1795 which suggests that she was a younger second wife, as the first Susanna was born in 1694.

      I have very roughly estimated the birth years of some of the children in this family.
