Arrilla was the daughter of Wm. B. Wofford (b.1808 SC d.1893 GA) and Mariah Chumley (b.1804 SC d.1896 GA). She was the wife of Enoch Edwards (b.1828 SC d.1913 GA).

The following is from the obituary of Arrilla's husband Enoch Edwards: "The remains were taken to Chestatee Baptist church and there interred by the side of his wife who had preceeded him to the grave by five years to await his coming to a home not built with hands, for they were Christians on earth and had laid up treasures in heaven to inherit when their work here had been completed. About 65 years ago they were married and became one in a family union, and they likewise entered upon a spiritual union, both joining the church and were baptized together. And God gave them a life crowned with good deeds and a home blessed with seven happy children, then, at a golden age, took them to himself."
