"In 1794, William Elder was married to Jacoba Clementina Livers, daughter of Arnold Livers."
"Arnold Livers was an Englishman by birth and had been an active
and noted partisan of James II.
Upon the collapse of that monarch’s cause, Mr. Livers had been obliged
to flee from his native land and
became the proprietor of a large estate in Maryland, called "Arnold’s
Delight," on Owing’s Creek.
