Rev. Arnold Skeer Naudain1

M, ID# 4319, b. 11 October 1778, d. 13 February 1845

Arnold S. Naudain house, south of Middleton, Del., from Wikipedia Commons.
  • Will Abstract*: Named sons Elias S. Naudain and John M. Naudain as executors; witnessed by A. Snow Naudain and A. Staats.5
  • Note*: He was born near Taylor's Bridge, and he lived on his parents' farm there until about 1810, about age 32. In 1808-1809 he bought about 230 acres of James Schee's land, about a mile and a half south of Middletown, where he built a home and spent his later years. He owned adjacent land and for a while owned Mount Airy. From Ruth Bennett's "Naudain Family of Delaware," p. 44: "He was an intelligent and scientific farmer and brought his land to a high state of cultivation for those times. His habits were studious and his leisure moments were devoted to reading and study. He acquired some knowledge of law and was commissioned by Governor Joseph Haslet as a Justice of the Peace on May 7, 1813. He was a devout student of the Bible and though raised a Presbyterian, became an ordained minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church." His will indicates that he owned several slaves.

Sen. Arnold Snow Naudain M.D.1

M, ID# 4342, b. 6 January 1790, d. 4 January 1872

Sen. Arnold Naudain, from Biographical Directory of United States Congress online.

  • Scrapbook*: “Not Dead.—A letter from the Hon. Arnold Naudain, in the National Intelligencer, says that he is not dead, and hopes to be able to live down the report. It was a relative of his, of the same name, who died a few days since”.14
  • Obituary*: “Dr. Arnold Naudain, who died at Odessa, Del., Jan. 4 [1872], at the age of 83, was a man of some prominence in his day. He came of Huguenot stock, his grandfather being commonly known as ‘Huguenot Naudain.’ Arnold Naudain graduated at Princeton College in 1806, and completed his medical studies at the University of Pennsylvania in 1810. In 1826 he was Speaker of the House of Representatives in the Legislature. In 1830 he was elected to the United States Senate, to succeed Hon. Louis McLane, who had been appointed Minister to England, and resigned in 1836. In 1841 he was appointed Collector of Customs at Wilmington. He enjoyed a high reputation, and attained great success as a physician. He was many years an elder in the Presbyterian Church.”.15
  • Note*: He was educated at Princeton College, graduating in 1808, and the University of Pennsylvania, where he earned a medical degree in 1810. He established a practice at Cantwell's Bridge (now Odessa), Delaware before age 21 and gave medical service in the War of 1812 as surgeon of the Delaware Regiment. In 1822 he ran for the U.S. House of Representatives but lost to Louis McLane. He lost to McLane in races in 1824 and 1828. In 1825 he was elected to the Delaware Legislature from New Castle County, served with his brother, Elias, who represented Kent County, and was elected speaker. In 1828 he was commissioned a judge of the Court of Common Pleas. McLane resigned his U.S. Senate seat in 1829 to become Minister to England, and Dr. Naudain was appointed to replace him, taking his seat in 1830. In 1832 he lost a race for Governor of Delaware but was reelected to his Senate seat in 1833 as an anti-Jacksonian. He resigned in June 1836 but reentered public life in 1841 as Collector of the Port of Wilmington and Superintendent of Lighthouses on the Delaware River. He moved from Wilmington to Philadelphia in 1845, continued his medical practice there, and founded and was the first elder in the Green Hill Presbyterian Church. He became more active in the Presbyterian Church and several times served as a commissioner of the Church's General Assembly. He returned to Delaware in 1857 and lived there until his death at the home of a son-in-law, Dr. W. N. Hamilton, at Odessa. He was described as "a most courteous gentleman, commanding in person, handsome in feature, and neat in attire; and evenly balanced in temperament; an humble, sincere Christian, a delightful companion, as winsome and interesting in old age as in the hey-day of youth." From Biographical Directory of the American Congress 1771-1971 (U.S. Government Printing Office 1971), p. 1461: '. . . a Senator from Delaware. . . completed preparatory studies; was graduated from Princeton College in 1806 and from the medical department of the University of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia in 1810 and commenced the practice of medicine in Dover, Del; surgeon general of the Delaware Militia in the War of 1812; member of the State house of representatives 1823-1827, serving as speaker in 1826; unsuccessful candidate for Governor of Delaware in 1832; elected as a National Republican to the United States Senate to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Louis McLane; reelected in 1832 and served from January 13, 1830, until his resignation on June 16, 1836; resumed the practice of medicine in Wilmington, Del; served in the State senate 1836-1839; collector of the port of Wilmington, Del., 1841-1845; moved to Philadelphia, Pa., in 1845 and practiced his profession; died in Odessa, New Castle County, Del., January 4, 1872; interment in the Old Drawyer's Presbyterian Churchyard.16

  • Note*: From Ruth Bennett, Naudain Family of Delaware: "She was an accomplished and religious woman, a devoted and loving wife and mother. Her personal appearance was attractive, graceful and commanding and notwithstanding years of suffering, bore her beauty to the day of her death, which occurred . . . suddenly and very unexpectedly . . . ."

Maj. Elias Naudain1

M, ID# 4346, b. 16 January 1795, d. 12 March 1849
  • Note*: During the 1820's he was justice of the peace in Leipsic, in Little Creek Hundred. He served in the lower house of the Delaware General Assembly in 1827 and in that same year was commissioned first major of the Fourth Regiment of the Delaware Militia. In 1832 he was elected a delegate to the convention to revise the Delaware Constitution. He later was elected to the Delaware Senate. From McCarter and Jackson, "Historical and Biographical Encyclopedia of Delaware" (1882): "He resided always upon the domain left to him by his father, cherishing to his last hour the associates of his boyhood, and a fondness for agriculture; as is attested by the fact that he left behind him the best improved lands in Kent an unknown place . He was a man of singular excellence and purity of character. . . . He was a man of most courteous and agreeable manners, the natural outgrowth of a true and manly heart, a Christian and an elder in the Presbyterian Church. His name should long be cherished as one of the worthiest of the sons of the ancient Delaware State."
