Seven Sons and One Daughter

As mentioned in previous posts Johnson and Beckie married 6 April 1886, in Lyman Township "at the home of the bride's parents, which was known as the Canada Smith farm."  I believe this farm was directly across the road from where Johnson Arnold grew up.  Did Johnson marry the girl next door? 

--Roberts Herald.  8 April 1936.  Page 1.
 
They had seven sons and one daughter:

1. Amos Silas b. 11 Jan 1887 d. 17 Jul 1887
2. Chester Clyde b. 1888.
3. Michael Ralph b. 1890
4. David Johnson b. 1892
5. Roger b. 1895
6. Henry Stuckley b. 1897
7. Ernest Linn b. 1899
8. Samantha Elizabeth b. 1901.
 
1. Amos Silas Arnold was born 11 January 1887 and died 17 July 1887. He was the first burial in the Arnold family plot at Lyman Township Cemetery. Six months old.  I cannot find an obit for his death.
