William H Arnold Jr, was born to William and Ellen Arnold at the 630 acre Arnold Ranch,7 miles NW of Bozeman, MT in 1871. He was the oldest of 10 children and attended the Nelson grade school, then went to Salt Lake City for preparatory and college studies at All Hallows College. Will worked for the Campbell Wheat Corporation for awhile, but most of his time was spent ranching near Hardin, Montana.

Because Will was the oldest child and a life long bachelor, who lived rather far from the Gallatin Valley, there is few family memories of him upon which to call.

In 1910 he was living on a ranch in Cody, Wyoming as a ranch hand and some sort of "finder".

He did live for awhile in Long Beach, CA. In the 1920 census he is listed with his parents and his sisters Annie Arnold, Josephine Arnold, Alice Anderson and niece Roberta Anderson in the Arnold winter family home on Olive St.

In 1930 lived on the Crow Indian Reservation outside of Billings, MT renting land valued at $1500 to raise cattle.

In his later years Will suffered a stroke which left him paralyzed on one side, but able to move about. He returned to Bozeman to make his home with his sister and brother in law Alberta and Conrad Wipf. His niece Elise Wipf recalls that he liked to walk to town and play cards, then stop for ice cream on the way home.

He died in 1937 at the age of 66.
