  1. 1.  Dr. Silas Remington, Sr. was born 25 Feb 1776, Suffield, Hartford, CT (son of Thomas Remington and Mary Remington); died 29 Jun 1818, Canandaigua, Ontario Co., NY; was buried , Hunn Memorial Cemetery, Canandaigua, NY.

    Notes:

    On 28 Nov 1793, John Kittridge of Chesterfield, MA, was appointed guardian of Silas Remington, aged 17 years, of Suffield, CT. Silas is probably the Silas Remmington in the 1800 census at Rupert, VT, along with his brother Thomas. Both of these brothers had sons named Silas, born in VT.

    Vermont Gazette, 10 February 1806; Bennington, Vermont: "Silas Remington of Reupert [sic.], is now confined to Bennington jail, on execution of a judgement in favor of Samuel Dinsmer of Rupert. He is to show cause why petitioner should not be allowed to take the oath prescribed by law for the relief of prisoners."

    Federal Census of 1810 lists Silas Remington at Rupert, along with Thomas.

    From "STATE OF VERMONT ROSTER OF SOLDIERS IN THE WAR OF 1812-14," prepared and published under the direction of Herbert T. Johnson, 1933, page 351: "Silas Remington, Surgeon's Mate, Rupert, Bennington Co., Vt. Served in Capt. Hopkins' Company, Col. Martindale's Regt. Detached Militia in U.S. service 2 months and 13 days, 1812. Served from June 15, 1814 to June 19, 1815 in Capt. Taylor's Company, 30th Inf. Pension Certificate of widow, Margaret, No. 39717."

  1. 4.  Daniel Remington, I was born 18 Feb 1705/06, Suffield, Hartford County, CT (son of John Remington, I and Hannah Hale); died Aft 1746.

    Notes:

    Boyd Scott Remington's Remington Ancestry Chart at RIHSL has Daniel's date of birth as 18 Feb 1706.

    The Suffield records show a birth to a son of Daniell & Sarah Remington: Abijah, who died at about 14 months on 8 July, no year given.

    He may be the Daniel Remington of Suffield who later married Mrs. Susannah Bush, widow, in 1770, as her fourth husband.

    Notes:

    I am assuming that the Stephen in the DAR Patriot Index, married to Sarah Barbow, is this same Stephen. He is the only one I have found thus far for this time and place.

    BSRs chart says he was born 3 Jan.

  1. 8.  John Remington, I was born 2 Nov 1661, Rowley, MA (son of Thomas Remington and Mehitable Walker); died 1722, Suffield, Hartford County, CT.

    Notes:

    Boyd Scott Remington does not list the last three children in this family; however, they are listed in the genealogy at the Suffield Historical Society. Hannah is listed in "Thomas Remington of Suffield, CT, and Some of His Descendants."

    An SAR application says Hannah Remington born 25 March 1723 (no parents given) married Joseph Leavitt. The will of Hannah Leavitt mentions brother Samuel Remington as Executor, but genealogies show Samuel son of John and Hannah died in 1763, before Hannah's will was written in 1769. I wonder if that date of death is incorrect. why would she name her deceased brother as Executor? I haven't been able to find another Samuel who might have had a sister Hannah in this time frame.

    John married Hannah Hale 19 Dec 1700, Windsor, CT. Hannah (daughter of Timothy Hale and Sarah Barber) was born 14 Sep 1680, Windsor, CT; died 1 Apr 1768. [Group Sheet]


  2. 9.  Hannah Hale was born 14 Sep 1680, Windsor, CT (daughter of Timothy Hale and Sarah Barber); died 1 Apr 1768.

    Notes:

    Hannah is mentioned as Hannah Remington, sister, in the 1750 will of Josiah Hale of Suffield.

    One source has a daughter, Hannah, born 25 Mar 1723. If this is accurate, she may have been a wife of Joseph Mills, Jr., who married a Hannah Remington. This needs more research to confirm if this Hannah belongs here and if she was one of Joseph's wives. (see Thomas Remington of Suffield, CT, and Some of His Descendants)
