He married MARGARET REYNOLDS BLAIR on 26 Oct 1829 in Pittsylvania, Virginia, daughter of Samuel Brittain Blair Sr and Mary "Polly" Reynolds.

Notes for Abihu Arnn:
I have changed the spelling from Aaron based on a photocopy of a page from the family bible of Abihu Arnn [clearly spelled Arnn] Abihu and Margaret Blair's marriage listed in "Marriages of Pittsylvania County, Virginia,
1806-1830" by Kathleen B. Williams from LA, p 32: from a letter from a W. C. Blair, a minister at Guilford College North Carolina, dated 21 September 1924 to Mrs. Myrtle Blair Motley. "In 1881 the minister had visited several months at 'Uncle Abihu's' in Arkansas. His Aunt Peggy [as Margaret Blair Arnn was called] was already dead and Abihu was living with his daughter Mary Ann who had married a John Houston. Abihu had two daughters living there--Mary Ann and Fanny."
Other letters provide info that two sisters - Peggy and Ann married Aarons and they went to Arkansas when they first married - in actuality, they went to Tennessee first, then
Arkansas. Abihu and Berryman Arnn and their spouses moved first to Henry County, Tennessee and then to Arkansas; Abihu acquired 50 acres of land through the Little Rock land office in 1879 REF: Arkansas-pre. Do not know if he lived in the Sidney Arkansas area prior to that or not. The
surname is spelled ARNN in this document. I do not know at what point he changed the spelling. Notes for Margaret Reynolds Blair:
Date of Margaret's birth and death are recorded on family page of a bible owned by Abihu Arnn.
