Personal Life
Arpiucki moved into the area of Big Cypress Swamp after the Third Seminole War of 1855-1858. His band included an estimated 17 warriors and a large number of women and children. He was less effective as a war leader in the Third Seminole War because of advanced age and possible senility.
Ar-pi-uck-i and his wife, Itee (half Choctaw, half Irish, born ca. 1790), had at least one daughter, Rebecca Jones. Rebecca was born in Tennessee, on January 1, 1817 and died on January 21, 1893 in Shelby County, Texas.
