Notes:

In the 1850 Federal Census, Campbell is age 36 and Polly is age 42. They are living at Huntington, Chittenden, VT, with children Stephen, Emerson, Francis, Jane, & Lodeemy. In 1870 Campbell & Polly are at Calais, Washington Co., VT. A child, Willie E. Remington, age 9, is with them. Is he a son or grandson?

In 1870 they are next door to Oscar & Jane White. I am making an assumption that Jane is the former Jane Remington, daughter of Campbell & Polly (the age fits her year of birth).

Pat Boyden's genealogy has Campbell's date of birth as 3 Aug 1813. I have not verified which year is correct.

Campbell married Polly Rollins 9 Sep 1832, VT. Polly (daughter of Jonathan Rollins and Lucy Ring) was born 23 Sep 1808, Corinth, Orange Co., VT; died 16 Mar 1884, Calais, Washington Co., VT. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Pat Boyden's genealogy has Polly's date of birth as 3 Nov 1808.

Notes:

Pat Boyden's genealogy has their marriage date as 3 Sep 1832.

Notes:

Stephen and his family appear to be in the 1830 Federal Census at Huntington, Chittenden, VT. Besides Stephen, the household includes one male age 15 - 20, one male age 10 - 15, and another male age 5 - 10; also, two females age 10 - 15, as well as his wife, age 30 - 40. Therefore, it appears that Stephen & Rhoda had at least three sons and two daughters.

A family tree at Rootsweb's Worldconnect has his date of birth as 7 Sep 1792. However, if Stephen belongs in this family group and if his brother is Joseph born 15 Nov 1792, at least one of those dates must be incorrect -- unless they were twins born two months apart. This family needs more research.

See note for Melissa, possible daughter.

Stephen married Rhoda Perkins Abt 1813. Rhoda (daughter of James Perkins and Bridget Corley Doud) was born Abt 5 Apr 1789, Huntington, Chittenden, VT; died 6 Dec 1872, Huntington, Chittenden, VT; was buried , Huntington Center Cemetery, Huntington, Chittenden Co., VT. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

In the 1850 Federal Census, Rhoda Remington is age 61 and living with daughter Sophronia (Remington) Mix and her family in Huntington, Chittenden, VT. They are next door to Philemon Remington and his family.

In 1860 Rhoda Remington is age 71 and living at Morristown, Lamoille Co., VT, with son Orange and family.

In 1870 Rhoda is age 81 and living with Joshua & Sophronia Mix again.

(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]

Notes:

Eunice was the widow of Jeremiah Griffiths. It has been speculated that her maiden name may have been Burr.

Pat Boyden's genealogy report has Eunice's dates as follows: 26 July 1758 - 26 July 1831 (this needs more research).
