Note

Arthur apparently inherited land from his aunt Martha Garst Kinney, probably the same land she "purchased" from James Jones in 1850. The property was adjacent to the Garst homestead between Villa Rica and Sand Hill. Arthur lived on that land withhis family until his death in 1953. His daughters, Pearl and Leola, apparently continued to live there after his death. It is at the end of a "Garst Road" off Hwy 61.
