A Chester Arthur Dangers was born February 11, 1884 in San Francisco. He was the son of Dietrich Dangers and Hermine Grasse. The birth year would make him the right age for a Bridge Medal (13-15 years old). He was probably named after Chester Arthur, the United States President 1881-1885.
 
Arthur Dangers graduated in June 1900 from Lowell High School in San Francisco. Lowell High School was the academic and university preparation high school for the city. It appears he liked to be called "Arthur" or "Art."
