Elisabeth (note spelling) is buried with her husband Joel Blackwell Arendale in a small family graveyard on private property near Doran's Cove. The graveyard can only be accessed with the assistance of the landowner. Speak to the office of Russell Cave for more information.

Elisabeth Dare was the daughter of a Virginia family whose several branches spread into Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Illinois. The family descends from relatives of Virginia Dare, the first child of European descent born on our continent. A brother of Elisabeth Dare, Hubbard Roland Dare, founded the town of Daresville, Illinois.

Elisabeth was the second wife of Joel Blackwell Arendale, one of the original settlers of the Bridgeport area of Jackson County, Alabama.

Joel and Elisabeth had six children:
Richard Anderson Arendale
James Blackwell Arendale
Mary Elisabeth Arendale Doran
Susan E. Arendale Williams
Joel B. Arendale, Jr.
Thomas B. Arendale

Joel and Elisabeth Arendale bought the Old Stone House in Doran's Cove from the Doran family and lived there during the Civil War. This is the oldest home in Jackson County and Andrew Jackson was known to have stayed there during years prior to the Arendale's purchase. The home is directly in front of an old stagecoach road that locals say went from Nashville to Chattanooga.

Elisabeth Dare Arendale died on December 22, 1862 in the midst of the war and was buried in the Arendale and Williams cemetery on a wooded hillside near the Old Stone House, across the old stagecoach road.
