Yes, his first given name is General...... it is not a title.

A name of "George" has been reported as listed on the city website for him - he had an older brother named George , born in Missouri in 1849 - George is buried in MCNeill Cemetery in Lawrence County Missouri.

From age 9, four census records are clearly hand written, showing his first given name as General: the 1870, 1880, 1910 and 1920 Census.

Curiously the 1920 census in Delaware, OK. spells it "Jeneral W. Ironhart" - but Osie and both daughters are also there, with the surname spelled Ironhart.


Son of Mahala C. Brisco and William C. Arnhart of Lawrence County, Missouri.

He married (1) Josephine Sullivan 5 February 1885 at Lawrence, Missouri. They had 2 daughters and one son: Effie, Henry, and Ina. Josephine died in 1894.

He married (2) Osie Iona Mays 8 December 1897 at Marionville, Lawrence, Missouri. They had three known daughters: Stella, Eletha and Irene.
