Weston died in the 90s in a nursing home in his 90s placing his date of birth near the beginning of the century and that Weston walked with a limp, the result of wearing the wrong shoes to work at a steel mill, and having molten steel fall on the top of his foot. This single fact would tie him to the recurrent theme of leaving the rural south for an industrial job in the north.

Big Joe Williams, a chronic rambler, spent much time in St. Louis and knew these more rural players such as George and Ethel McCoy, who may be his children, and Arthur Weston and George Robertson whom he recorded.
Little is known of either man. Mike Stewart, who recorded the pair for Adelphi called them among "the least talkative" artists he had ever encountered. They came to the makeshift recording studio set up in a motel room, played their songs, and left. Weston was also recorded by Pete Welding, issued in 1997 by Testament.
