Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Martha Randall was born Abt 18 Mar 1724/25 (daughter of John Randall and Martha Williams); died Between 1808 and 1809.

    Notes:

    The dates of Martha's two marriages do not seem to jive. Was she a lot younger than Matthew? If she remarried to Henry Olin, which one, Sr. or Jr.? If her daughter Abigail, by Matthew, married Anthony Olin son of Henry Jr., it seems that Abigail could not have been born much before 1770 or so. Is there a generation missing here, possibly a Matthew Remington Jr.? Or, perhaps Matthew had an earlier wife who died, and he remarried to a younger woman, who was Martha?

    I have put together all the data -- including marriage records and Henry's will -- into what I believe is the most likely scenario, given the information I have. If Martha Randall Remington married this Henry, and is indeed the Martha mentioned in his will, she could not have been the mother of his children, because some of them were already married with children at the time of his will; therefore she was probably his second wife. The codicil to his will makes it clear that there was another wife named Sarah; this also agrees with the marriage records.

    Martha married Matthew Remington 26 Dec 1755, Providence, RI. Matthew (son of Stephen Remington and Lydia Rhodes) was born Between 1721 and 1727; died 1784. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    James N. Arnold's "Vital Record of Rhode Island" has the year as 1756. They were married by William Burton, Justice.

    Martha married Henry Olin, Sr. 17 Jun 1790. Henry (son of John OLIN, I and Susannah SPENCER) was born Between 1719 and 1720, East Greenwich, RI; died Between 1810 and 1812. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    An Abigail Remington, daughter of Matthew deceased, married Anthony Olin, son of Henry Jr., in 1793. Is Anthony's father the second husband of Abigail's mother, Martha (Randall) Remington? Or did Martha marry Henry Sr.? (needs more research)
