- He enlisted as a private in Co. C, 32nd Regiment, Indiana Volunteer Infantry during the Civil War, assigned to permanent garrison guard duty in Indiana. Moved from Tennessee, to Brown County, Indiana, in 1843. Applied for and was issued one Land Patent in Brown County, Indiana. 9/2/1856, certificate #24775, 120 acres. He moved from Indiana to Texas, near Hurst, Tarrant Co. in 1865 and became an extensive land owner. In 1876, Daniel purchased six acres from Robert Morrow and since there was no church, school or cemetery in the area, on June 23, 1879 he deeded those six acres to be used for school, church and cemetery purposes. They were called the Red Sulphur Spring school, the Arwine Church and the Arwine Cemetery. Red Sulphur Spring school was later called the Arwine School. His young daughter Katy selected the Cemetery site because she thought it to be so beautiful and said when she died she wanted to be buried there. A few months later she did become ill and died, becoming the first to be buried in the new Cemetery. The Hurst area was known as The Arwine Settlement until William B. Hurst sold the land to the railroad, and they named the station Hurst. After that, the settlement became known as Hurst. Daniel was a US Marshall (Or State Police) in 1870 and 1871 and his sons, John and Dave were deputies. One room of Daniel's log home was used as a jail cell, to hold prisoners overnight before they were taken to Fort Worth. Buried in the Arwine Cemetery, Hurst, Tarrant Co., Texas. ____________________ The 1860 Census for Indiana, Brown County, Johnson Township [Series: M653 Roll: 246 Page: 152], has a Jesse Martin, age 22, living with this Arwine family.
