Benedict Arnold (congressman)
Benedict Arnold (October 5, 1780 – March 3, 1849) was an American politician from New York, and a member of the House of Representatives.
==Biography==
Arnold was born in Amsterdam, Tryon County, New York (after 1784 Montgomery County, New York) the son of Elisha and Sarah Francisco Arnold. He was named in honor of the famous Benedict Arnold at a time during the American Revolutionary War when he was still seen as a hero of the United States, stemming from the capture of Fort Ticonderoga. His plans to betray the fort of West Point were uncovered on September 23 of that same year—less than two weeks before Arnold was born. The news probably took longer than this to make its way upstate, or his parents were of Loyalist sympathy. The latter seems unlikely, however, as they stayed in the area until their deaths in 1815 and seemed to have remained quite wealthy despite widespread emigration of loyalists to Canada.
Despite this unpromising start, Arnold prospered; he attended the local schools and became a successful merchant. He married Mary 'Polly' Bovee (sister of Matthias J. Bovee) on August 21, 1806 in Amsterdam, Montogmery County, New York. They had twelve children, Hiram, Jane, William, Maria, James, Charlotte, Lorenzo, Benedict, Hasley, Sarah, Marion, and Adam.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~colby/colbyfam/b20.html )〕
