    Notes:

    I am assuming that the gravestone for Henry Remington, s/o Thomas & Almira, is for the same individual as Henry Clay Remington, their son.

    In the Federal Census of 1860, Henry & Hannah Remington, ages 28 & 24, are living at Warwick, RI. They have three children: Abby 5, George 2, & Infant 8/12.

    Henry married Hannah Parish Hierlihy 1 Nov 1855, RI. Hannah (daughter of Jeremiah Hierlihy and Elizabeth "Eliza" Parish) was born Sep 1836, MA; died 18 Jul 1933, Pawtucket, RI; was buried , Historical Cemetery 83, Cottrell Lot, Seven Mile Rd., Scituate, RI. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    In the 1870 Federal Census, Hannah Remington is age 33, a weaver, living at Providence, RI, with her parents Jeremiah & Eliza Hierlihy. Hannah's two (living) children, George H. 12 & Byron 10, are with her. Other individuals -- possibly relatives -- are also in the household.

    In the 1880 Federal Census, Hannah, age 43, is still living at Providence with her parents. Sons George H. & Byron A., ages 21 & 20, are with her.

    In the 1910 Federal Census, Hannah P. Remington is a widow age 72, living with her son George and his wife Lizzie in Pawtucket, RI. In 1920 she is still with them, age 83.

  1. 4.  Thomas Russell Remington was born 30 Apr 1811, RI (son of Russell Remington and Rachael Colvin); died 18 Oct 1853; was buried , Pocasset Cemetery, Cranston, RI.

    Notes:

    This family appears to be listed twice in the 1850 Federal Census, at both Warwick, RI (5 Sep); and Scituate, RI (20 Sep) -- except George, who is already married, is not listed at Scituate.

    Warwick, 1850:
    Thomas Remmington 42
    Almira Remmington 42
    George Remmington 20
    Abby Remmington 18
    Henry Remmington 16
    Horace Remmington 13
    Andrew Remmington 12
    John Remmington 9

    Scituate, 1850 (ancestry has mis-transcribed the surname, but the image shows Remington):
    Thomas Kennington 41
    Almira Kennington 41
    Abby Kennington 18
    Henry Kennington 16
    Albert Kennington 12
    Horace Kennington 9
    Andrew J Kennington 6
    John H Kennington 4

    George is listed separately at Warick, with his wife and child:
    George T Remmington 20
    Betsey P Remmington 26
    Byron D Remmington 1

    It must be the same family, because most of the names are the same, as are the ages -- with slight differences for three of the children.

    Perhaps they were living at Warwick with (or next to) Susan Remington but in that month moved to Scituate.

    Thomas is not listed in the RI Death Index.
