Child No 3 of John Barrand and Eleanor West was Arthur Archibald and he was born on the 20th March, 1848 at 3, New Buildings, Leader Street, Chelsea. His father is noted as John Barrand, a jeweller. The Birth Reference is Chelsea 1848 - 1st Qtr (3 - 62). He was baptised on the 6th May, 1849 in Holborn and the address shown is Kings Head Road. He first appears on the 1851 census for the family aged 3 at 23, Union Street, St. Pancras. He is still with his father on the 1861 census, who is shown as a diamond setter but John is now a widow, as Eleanor West had died in 1857, and Arthur is aged 13, but no occupation is shown so probably still at school. They now lived at 26, Willington Street, St. Pancras, or more likely Wellington Sreeet. Arthur does not show on the 1871 census but it is quite possible he was living in the United States as he sailed on the SS City of Montreal from Liverpool to New York in 1867. He must have returned to the UK, as he again sailed to the United States in 1872 ariving on the 8th August, 1872, and he was naturalised as an American citizen in 1877. On the 1880 census for the USA, he is working as a labourer on a farm in Middletown, New Jersey and unmarried. In 1900, he is found in East Shrewsbury, Monmouth in New Jersey aged 52 and his birth date is confirmed as 1848 in England. In the 1910 census he is found again in New Jersey in an area of Monmouth called Runson aged 62, and again as a farm worker. In 1920 he is living at 17, North Street, Runson aged 71 unmarried and employed as a gardener, owing his own home on a private estate with no mortgage. Arthur Barrand died in 1922, aged approximately 78 and was buried in a private plot and, as there are no other Barrands buried in the plot, it would seem he was still unmarried. What happened to the house that he owned is unknown.
