He used the name T. Arnold, Timothy A., Arnold, and Arnaud. He was born in 1838 in New York State, moved with his bride Julia Jordan to New Jersey, fought with a New Jersey Company during the Civil War, fathered 3 children, and was probably divorced, moved to Connecticut where he applied for disable veteran benefits, shows up in a Memorial home for disabled soldiers in New Jersey in 1920, and died in 1923 in a Veterans Hospital in Dayton, Ohio.
Family lore says his parents were James L'Hommedieu and Julia Arnold. I have found evidence of that marriage, but nothing about their children; can anybody help?
