Arthur signed his will on November 4, 1631.
Sir Arthur Harris and his wife are buried in the chancel of All Saints Church, Creeksea, Essex, where there is a long inscription concerning Arthur and his family, on the floor, where he is buried. This inscription lists Arthur's father, his home place, Arthur's wives and children. The name Harris, in this inscription, is spelled "Herris", a change from "Herrys" as spelled by Arthur's great-great-grandfather, Arthur Herrys, of Prittlewell, Essex. The inscription, on the floor of the chancel at All Saints Church, ends with the following verses:

"If any prying man here after come that knows not who's the tenant of this tomb, we'll tell him freely, as our sighs give leave, one whose religious brest to Cod did cleave, and that to men just offices discharged. And to the pinched soule his hart inlarged. One, that though laid in dust, of breath bereft. Like dying roses sweet distillments left, And moulders, hoping from this stone, God may raise up a child to Abraham one day."
