     The following brief outline of the life of Philip and his family was part of a biographical sketch of his son, George Arnhold, published in 1915.

     "Brought up and educated in the fatherland, Philip Arnhold succeeded to the occupation of his father and grandfather, becoming a contractor and builder. Settling up his affairs in the fall of 1852, he started soon after for America, with his family embarking in a sailing vessel, and after a tiresome voyage of sixty-six days landing in New Orleans. Coming from there to Missouri, he spent six months in St. Louis, and then came by boat to St. Joseph. At that time there was not a railroad west of the Mississippi, the entire country being a territory, and Northwest Missouri was but sparsely settled, with only a small portion of land cleared. There were several stores, however, but the greater part of the business consisted in the selling of goods to parties preparing to cross the plains, many trains starting from St. Joseph each year. Establishing himself as a contractor and builder, Philip Arnhold carried on a good business in that line for many years, continuing a resident of the city until his death, at the age of three score and ten years. He married Caroline Klos, a native of Bavaria. She survived him, passing away at the venerable age of eighty-two years. Eight children were born of their marriage, as follows: Karl, Caroline, Philip, Sophie, Jacob, Frederick, Charlotte, and George. At the breaking out of the war between the states Frederick enlisted in the Thirteenth Missouri Volunteer Infantry, and in the engagement at Lexington was captured by the Confederates, and subsequently released on parole. Being then exchanged, he re-enlisted in the Sixteenth Illinois Volunteer Infantry, with which he took part in many engagements, and was killed at the last battle fought in North Carolina."

Caroline's maiden name has been recorded as Klos or Klaus. In a biography of her son, Philip, published in 1893, stated that she had died on 18 January 1892 at the age of 82 years. Using this information, she would have been born between 1809 and 1810.

Notes:

Married:
Details of the marriage are not known at this time. Philip and Caroline were natives of Bavaria and they did not immigrate with their family to the USA until about 1852. Their son, George, one of eight children, was born in 1849 in Bavaria. It has therefore been assumed, without verification, that the marriage took place in Bavaria.
