    Notes:

    ARNOLD Welcome, Esq., of Smithfield, and Patience Greene, daughter of Capt. Samuel, deceased, of Greenwich, at Warwick; Gazette of Feb. 13, 1773.

    ARNOLD Welcome, of Jonathan, of Smithfield, and Patience Greene, of Capt. Samuel, dec., of Warwick, at Warwick, Feb. 11, 1773. (Providence Records)

    It appears that Welcome and Patience had two sons; the older one died after the younger one was about 7 months old, so they named the second the same name -- Samuel Greene Arnold. Samuel Greene was the name of Patience's father.

    Notes:

    This is a confusing death record or announcement: ARNOLD Samuel Greene, of Welcome and Patience, d. Sept. 5, 1778; Providence. Perhaps after he died, their other son already born was named for this one who died? See notes for siblings.

    These were Providence newspaper reports.

    ARNOLD Harriet, only daughter of Samuel G., aged 3 years, 4 months, suddenly, July 20, 1825.

    This does not make sense to me because there seems to have been an infant daughter who died the following month, Aug. Perhaps the newspapers got it wrong and one just repeated the other.
