Joel B. Arendale is buried in a cemetery on private property in the vicinity of the Dorans Cove cemetery. Access is only possible with the assistance of the property owner, so speak to the staff of the Russell Cave office for more information.
Joel was the son of Benjamin and Mary Cole Arendale, whose family was originally from Arundel, Sessex, in England and immigrated to Virginia in the seventeenth century.
Joel's father died in 1812 when Joel was 16. Joel was married 3 times. His first wife (Cinderella Anderson of Franklin, NC) inherited 600 acres and 11 slaves from her father's will, which passed to Joel upon death. They had one child, William, who appears to have been born the same year his mother died in 1824. Joel then married his second wife, Elisabeth Dare Arendale, also from NC. They migrated to Jackson County in approximately 1825. The 1860 census lists his occupation as "farmer" with an estate value indicating he was fairly wealthy. Joel was listed in the Confederate Citizen's file, having helped the cause of the Confederacy through providing meat for the troops. Joel and Elisabeth had six children.
Joel and Elisabeth bought the Old Stone House in Doran's Cove from the Doran family and lived there through the Civil War. This house is the oldest house in Jackson County and lies in front of what was once a stagecoach trail from Nashville to Chattanooga. Andrew Jackson was known to stay in this home prior to the Arendale's purchase.
Their son, James B. Arendale, had his farm just north of theirs and straddled the state line.
Elisabeth Dare Arendale is buried beside him in the cemetery, on a wooded hillside near the Old Stone House, which has a beautiful octagon hand-hewn wall around it and an obelisk in the center with their names on it, indicating in which direction from the center they are buried.
He married his third wife, Elizabeth Black Deathride of Marion County, TN, in 1868 after his second wife's death. His new wife's youngest child, Kate, is buried in this site as well. Joel and his new wife sold the Old Stone House to Joel's daughter, Susan, and her husband, Jere Williams, and moved to Marion County, TN near South Pittsburg. There were no children from this marriage.
