Chester A. Arthur war Vater von 3 Kindern: Chester Alan Arthur II (* 1864), William Lewis Herndon Arthur (* 1860), Ellen Herndon Arthur (* 1871).
Chester A. Arthur war ein Präsident der Vereinigten Staaten, der am 5. Oktober 1829 in Fairfield, Vermont geboren wurde und am 18. November 1886 in New York City, New York verstarb. Arthur übernahm das Amt von James A. Garfield, nachdem dieser einem Attentat zum Opfer gefallen war. Vor seiner politischen Karriere arbeitete Arthur als Lehrer und studierte anschließend Jura. Er schloss sich dem abolitionistischen Anwalt Erastus D. Culver an. Später eröffnete er seine eigene Anwaltspraxis in New York City. Im Vorfeld des Bürgerkriegs diente er im Beraterstab des Gouverneurs Edwin D. Morgan. Im Bürgerkrieg selbst war Arthur als Quartiermeister in der New Yorker Staatsgarde tätig, wo er bis zum Generalmajor aufstieg. Nach dem Krieg wandte sich Arthur der Politik zu. Er schloss sich der "politischen Maschine" der Stalwarts an und wurde ein enger Vertrauter von Roscoe Conkling. Arthur kam so in Kontakt mit der New Yorker High Society und Präsident Ulysses S. Grant. 1871 wurde er zum Leiter der Zollbehörde am New Yorker Hafen ernannt. Diese Position machte ihn zu einer Schlüsselfigur im sogenannten Spoils-System, das auf Ämterpatronage basierte. Als Rutherford B. Hayes, ein Verfechter von Reformen, Präsident wurde, geriet Arthur unter Druck und wurde 1879 aus seinem Amt entfernt. Überraschenderweise wurde Arthur 1880 zum Vizepräsidentschaftskandidaten von James A. Garfield gewählt. Nach Garfields Tod übernahm Arthur das Präsidentenamt. Arthur setzte Reformen im öffentlichen Dienst um, die auf Eignung basierten und das Spoils-System beendeten. Er modernisierte die Flotte und legte Veto gegen den Chinese Exclusion Act ein, um den Einwanderungsstopp zu verkürzen. Arthur suchte 1884 keine aktive Wiederwahl, nachdem er kurz nach seinem Amtsantritt mit einem tödlichen Nierenleiden konfrontiert wurde und in der Partei politisch marginalisiert war. Chester A. Arthur starb weniger als zwei Jahre nach Verlassen des Weißen Hauses.

GRAND FORKS AIR FORCE BASE, N.D -- The majority of our nation's presidents hold the distinction of once being referred to as brothers-in-arms before they ever held the title of Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Armed Forces.
In observance of President's Day, we present the following facts: Thirty-one of our 44 American presidents have served in the military, and 12 of them have been general officers (O-7 to O-11 with one, at least in theory, O-12).
The three presidents to hold the highest military ranks were: George Washington, Dwight D. Eisenhower and Ulysses S. Grant, respectively.
Washington held the rank of lieutenant general (O-9) when he died, but in 1976, then-president Gerald R. Ford posthumously appointed him to General of the Armies of the United States.
The only other person to hold the same title was Gen. John J. Pershing, who retired on Sept. 13, 1924.
Although both Washington and Pershing received the same appointment, Washington is considered the higher-ranking officer as President Ford specified he would rank higher than all officers past, present and future. This special appointment would theoretically make Washington a six-star general - or O-12.
President Eisenhower reached the status of a five-star general while serving as Supreme Allied Commander in Europe during World War II (1942-1945). He is one of only nine U.S. officers to have worn the five-star insignia. In all, four Army generals, four Navy admirals, and one Air Force general have officially worn the five-star insignia.
President Grant served as lieutenant general until Congress enacted legislation authorizing the grade of General of the Army on July 25, 1866. Although that title is associated with the five-star insignia, Grant held the position as a four-star general. He saw combat in both the Mexican-American War and the Civil War.
In addition to those who went on to achieve general officer ranks, ten of the presidents obtained the rank of colonel (O-6).
Two of those colonels were also two of our nation's Founding Fathers: Thomas Jefferson (third president) and James Madison (fourth president). Both were militia men.
Another president who served as an Army colonel was Theodore Roosevelt (26th president). During the Spanish-American War, Roosevelt helped organized and command the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry Regiment, better known as the Rough Riders. As a former president, Roosevelt volunteered for service in World War I, however, then-president Woodrow Wilson, declined Roosevelt's offer. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor in 2001.
Two of the presidents reached the pay grade of O-5. One of those O-5s was our 36th president and former Navy commander, Lyndon B. Johnson. LBJ served during World War II and was presented a Silver Star medal by Army Gen. Douglas MacArthur for his role on a B-26 bomber mission. The other was President James Monroe (fifth president).
Two other presidents who had notable military service in the Navy were John F. Kennedy and George H. W. Bush, our 35th and 41st presidents respectively. Both men achieved the rank of lieutenant (O-3) and both served during World War II. JFK earned a Purple Heart and a Navy and Marine Corps Medal for heroism.
Our 41st president, President George H. W. Bush, remains the youngest person to ever become an aviator in the U.S. Navy. The former Sailor also earned the Distinguished Flying Cross for his actions during a mission. He completed his attack on Japanese military forces despite his aircraft catching fire and ultimately crashing.
President Bush's son, George W. Bush became our nation's 43rd president, but not before serving as a pilot in the Texas and Alabama Air National Guard. He is currently the only president to have served in the modern-day U.S. Air Force.
However, Ronald Reagan, our 40th president, was part of the Air Force's early history. Reagan served as a captain in the U.S. Army Air Force (also known as Army Air Corps). He helped make more than 400 training films when he was assigned to the 1st Motion Picture Unit in Culver City, Calif. He was discharged from active duty in 1945, prior to the Air Force becoming its own separate military service in 1947.
James Buchanan, our 15th president, held the lowest rank among our military presidents. He was a private (E-1) in the Army, and the only president who enlisted without becoming an officer. He saw combat during the War of 1812.
Buchanan's successor, President Abraham Lincoln, was a private in the Illinois State Militia. He fought in the Black Hawk War, and although his military service was only three months, he was elected to the rank of captain by his militia company. According to Renee Hylton, a historian for the National Guard Bureau, election of officers within militia units was a common practice at the times.

"The World's Sovereigns". A photomontage made in Europe in 1889 with the main heads of state in the world. From left to right: Yohannes IV of Ethiopia, Tewfik Pasha of Egypt, Sultan Abdülhamit II of the Ottoman Empire, Naser al-Din Shah Qajar of Persia, Christian IX of Denmark, Luís I of Portugal, William III of the Netherlands, Pedro II of Brazil, Milan Obrenović IV of Serbia, Leopold II of Belgium, Alexander III of Russia, Wilhelm I, German Emperor (deceased 1888), Franz Joseph I of Austria, Victoria of the United Kingdom, Jules Grévy of France (left office 1887), Pope Leo XIII, Emperor Meiji of Japan, Guangxu Emperor of China (not confirmed), Umberto I of Italy, Alfonso XII of Spain (deceased 1885), Oscar II of Sweden and Chester A. Arthur of the United States (left office 1885, deceased 1886). Three of the photographers, who provided (willingly or not) photographic-material for the photomontage, are identified: Photo of Abdul Hamid II. by W. & D. Downey, London https://www.liberaldictionary.com/abdul-hamid-ii/ (File used in picture is bottom-left). Franz-Joseph I.`s photo comes from Ferenc Kosmata https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Doctor_Kozmata_Portrait_of_Franz_Joseph_I_1872.jpg, photographed in Schloss Schönbrunn. Umberto I. was photographed by Stereoscopic Coy. London
Due to the fact, that Queen Victoria had been photographed by both, W&D Downey and Stereoscopic Coy., it is likely, that her photo comes from one of these sources.
