    Edith married Allen C. Rice 10 Aug 1898. Allen was born 19 Jul 1861, Yorkshire, NY; died 4 Aug 1936; was buried , Mount Hope Cemetery, Ashford, Cattaraugus Co., NY. [Group Sheet]


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Bela Colegrove Remington was born 29 May 1828, NY (son of Joseph Remington and Amanda Sackett); died 8 Jan 1904, NY; was buried , Riceville Cemetery, Cattaraugus Co., NY.

    Notes:

    This family group is in the 1860 and 1880 Federal Census at Ashford, Cattaraugus Co., NY. Bela was Justice of the Peace at Ashford in 1868.

    In 1860 and 1870, there is a son Arthur living with Bela & Silphina, but in 1880 he is married; with Arthur at that time are Joseph & Loraette Remington, listed as his parents. So, I am assuming Arthur is Bela's nephew, a son of Joseph and a possible first wife.

    From census data, it appears that his brother Joseph and sister Patty are also residing at Ashford.

    In the Federal Census of June 1900, Bela & "Claphine" are still living at Ashford. Daughter Clare, age 26, is with them.

    Bela married Silphina H. Bowen Abt 1854, NY. Silphina was born Aug 1827, VT; died Aft 1 Jun 1900, NY. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    I have made an assumption that this Joseph belongs in this family, based on a manuscript at New England Historic Genealogical Society which is referenced on Rootsweb's Worldconnect; this family tree also references Valerie George as a source. I have not yet studied this manuscript personally (Book of Ross by Ernest E. Fewkes), nor have I contacted Valerie George for confirmation. This family needs more research.

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me -- Lois Sorensen, Remington researcher -- and/or to other sources as noted herein.)

    The list of Joshua's children and their birth dates is given quite differently in different sources. I have not personally confirmed the list which I have on this tree, but have used various sources to compile the family group. See my notes for the individual children and their families, which I have researched.

    According to his affadavit, Joshua may have been born in Hingham c1760, but the birth was recorded in Abington. Lois Remington Smith mentions his baptism record at Hingham on 14 Sept 1760, but birth record at Abington dated 1 Nov 1760. Gretchen Paulsen has provided information that he was born 9 Sep 1760, and his gravestone inscription reads "died 1855 age 95 years."

    Joshua Remington, Jr. was a soldier in the Revolutionary War (VT) and was "present at the Battle of Bennington. He was in Captain Nathan Harwood's company, Colonel John Dickinson's regiment, the roll of which was sworn to in Chesterfield, New Hampshire. He was also in Captain Joseph Clapp's company, and Colonel Israel Chapin's regiment (Third Massachusetts) in the fall of 1779 and marched to reinforce the northern army. He settled in Wallingford, Vermont, in 1780, and saw further service there in a Vermont regiment . . . Joshua and Uriah were both in Captain Stafford's company, colonel Ebenezer Allen's regiment of Vermont militia in October, 1780, June, 1781, and again in 1780 in Captain Orange Train's company, Colonel Lee's regiment; also in Captain John Sprague's company, Colonel Gideon Warren's regiment, 1780-81." (source: "New England Families" Vol. I, Genealogies and Memorials, p. 381)

    Joshua was placed on the pension roll of Chittendon County, VT, in 1832 for service as a private in the MA militia.

    According to Boyd Scott Remington's ancestry chart, Joshua was baptised on 14 Sept 1760. He later lived in Wallingford, and died in Huntington, VT. Elsewhere I have seen that he may have been born 1 Nov 1760 (no source documentation). However, "New England Families," Vol. I, p. 381, says he was born in Nov 1759.

    According to "Genealogical and Family History of Western New York" by William Richard Cutter, p. 978, Joshua moved to Rutland County, VT . . . He lived at Wallington."

    In the 1790 Federal Census, a Joshua Remington is living at Danby, Rutland, VT. Besides Joshua, the household includes three white males under 16 and six free white females. Most likely the sons are Samuel, Jeremiah, & another unknown son before that time.

    He is likely the Joshua Remington listed in the 1810 Federal Census at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT: 1 FWM<10, 1 FWM 10-15, 1 FWM 45+, 1 FWF 10-15, 1 FWF 16 - 25, 1 FWF 45+; total 6.

    He may have lived for a while at Hinesburg, VT, where he bought real estate on 19 Sept 1818, and sold it to his son 28 Aug 1819, returning to Wallingford or Huntington. (source: "New England Families" Vol. I, Genealogies and Memorials, p. 381)

    In the 1850 Federal Census, Joshua is age 90, living with his son Jeremiah and family at Huntington, Chittenden, VT.

    Joshua Remington is a DAR Patriot.

    Joshua married Eunice Unknown Abt 1782. Eunice was born 1758; died 26 Jul 1834, Huntington, Chittenden Co., VT; was buried , Center Cemetery, Huntington, Chittenden Co., VT. [Group Sheet]


  2. 9.  Eunice Unknown was born 1758; died 26 Jul 1834, Huntington, Chittenden Co., VT; was buried , Center Cemetery, Huntington, Chittenden Co., VT.

    Notes:
