George Washington Arbogast and his wife, Mary (Reed) were parents of ten children. Their teenage sons, Michael, Francis, and George Jr., served with the 7th Regiment, West Virginia Cavalry.. Francis Arbogast is also listed under Arbagass, Arbogratts, and Arbegrast, to confound future researchers no doubt. His 1847 Virginia birthplace is listed as either Nicholas or Clay County.

He died of consumption or tuberculosis in 1867. Other records show his death in 1866 and/or May of 1868. The Clay County Death Register (attached) shows 1866. The military death record has yet another date. His young wife, Elvira (Schoonover), survived him. The 1870 Federal Census shows a three year old child, Francis E. Arbogast, living with her. Researcher Charles Eades has a birth date of May 14, 1867 for this boy.
