  1. 1.  John Julius B. Remington was born 10 Oct 1822, Wallingford, Rutland, VT (son of Rufus Remington and Rebecca Doty); died 26 Sep 1906, Bennington, Bennington Co., VT.

    Notes:

    According to a genealogy at Rootsweb's Worldconnect, this is John Julius Remington, b.30 Nov 1822 at Wallingford, VT. This differs slightly from his age of 25 in the 1850 census, which suggests he was born c1825. However, he is listed a second time in the 1850 census, and that time his age is 28.

    In the 1850 Federal Census, John J. B. Remington and his wife Laura are living at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT, with their son Passo, 7 months old. Also in the household is John's sister, Sylvia, age 18. They are living nearby other family members, such as Rufus, Amos, and their parents Rufus, Sr., & Rebecca.

    In 1850, John & Laura Remington are listed a second time in Wallingford: John age 28, Laura age 28, and John 6 months. On this census page they are living near two Edgerton families, probably relatives of Laura. Nearby are Rufus & Rebecca, and Amos and family.

    In 1860 they are still at Wallingford. John J. & Laura E. Remington are ages 36 & 38, and have two sons: Julius K, 10, and Oscar E., 4. They are next to Rufus & Rebecca Remington, ages 65 & 63.

    John & Laura are at Wallingford in 1870 with their two sons.

    In 1880 John B. & Laura Remington are both age 58, still living at Wallingford, VT. In the household is John's mother, Rebecca, age 84, and a daughter-in-law, Ellen Remington, 20 (Oscar's widow).

    In 1900 Julius J. Remington is age 74 and still living at Wallingford, VT. He is a widower, and a stone mason.

    John married Laura E. Edgerton 20 Mar 1850, Union Church, South Wallingford, VT. Laura (daughter of Jonathan Edgerton and Phoebe Sayles) was born 17 May 1821, Lincoln, VT; died 14 Oct 1895. [Group Sheet]

    Children:
    1. Julius K. "John Tasso" Remington was born Dec 1849, VT; died 7 Nov 1912.
    2. Oscar E. Remington was born 20 Nov 1856, VT; died Between 28 Apr 1878 and 1888.

Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Rufus Remington was born Between 11 Mar and 11 Aug 1790, Wallingford, Rutland, VT (son of Jonathan Remington and Martha Sprague); died 28 Aug 1866, Wallingford, Rutland, VT; was buried , Doty Cemetery, South Wallingford, VT.

    Notes:

    Rufus's gravestone give his years as 1792-1866.

    The 1830 Federal Census shows Rufus Remington at Rodman, Jefferson Co., NY. The household consists of: 1 male <5, 3 males 5<10, 1 male 10<15, 1 male 30<40, 1 female <5, and 1 female 30<40.

    The 1840 Federal Census at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT, lists Rufus Remmington Jr., Truman Remmington, Rufus Remmington, and Jonathan Remmington (age 20-30 OR age 60-70?) these last two listed and probably living next to each other. Is this Jonathan Rufus's son, and if so, who are the older individuals with him?

    Amos Gorton, husband of Rhoda Remington, is also listed with the above Remingtons.

    In the 1850 Federal Census, Rufus & Rebecca are both listed as age 60, living at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT, near Amos, Rufus Jr., and John J. B. Remington and their families. In the household is Rebecca, age 10. I am assuming she is their youngest.

    In the Federal Census of 1860, Rufus & Rebecca, ages 65 & 63, are still at Wallingford. Next to them are John J. Remington and family.

    Including Rufus in this family group as a son of Jonathan & Martha needs confirmation. I obtained this connection from Rootsweb's Worldconnect and other genealogies which have been sent to me. Information from subsequent generations was obtained from census data.

    The 1850 census at Wallingford lists several other young adult Remingtons who may be children of this family: Octavia 22 (1828), Prudence and Amy 18 (1832), and Thankful 16 (1834).

    Rufus married Rebecca Doty Abt 1814. Rebecca (daughter of Jorathmiel Doty and Sarah Look) was born 2 Sep 1796, Rochester, Plymouth Co., MA; died 27 Nov 1889, Wallingford, Rutland, VT; was buried , Doty Cemetery, South Wallingford, VT. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    In the 1870 Federal Census, R. Remington (female age 74) is living at Tinmouth, Rutland Co., VT, with Ezekiel & Filena Hill and their daughter Laura. I am assuming that Filena is Rebecca's daughter.

    Pat Boyden's Remington genealogy says Rebecca died 27 Nov 1888. I have not verified her date of death.

    War of 1812, Rebecca's pension no. 6521.

Generation: 3

  1. 4.  Jonathan Remington was born 1 Sep 1761, Abington, Plymouth Co., MA (son of Joshua (2) Remington, II and Ruth Clay); died 19 Apr 1833.

    Notes:

    Jonathan served in the Revolution from MA & VT. He enlisted at Cummington, MA.

    His marriage to Martha was obtained from Rootsweb's Worldconnect, so needs verification to determine that it is the same Jonathan Remington. That genealogy lists 11 children for this couple. Other family notes I have seen agree.

    I could not find his birth record at Abington, but Lois Remington Smith lists Jonathan with the children of Joshua & Ruth.

    However, some genealogies have this Jonathan as a son of Thomas Remington b 1726 and his wife Rachel Stowell.

    Also, others show his birthplace as Cummington, Hampshire Co., MA, and his death as c 1840 at Wallingford, VT.

    The Federal Census of 1830 at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT lists a Jonathan Rimmington and a Jonathan Rimmington Jr. The household of the former includes 1 male age 70<80, 1 female 50>60; and three other females -- 1-40<50, 1-10<15, & 1-15<20.

    In 1833 when he appeared for his pension hearing, he said he had lived in Wallingford for 51 years (since 1782).

    The last pension payment was made 12 Sep 1834 (to his wife?).

    Notes:

    According to the gravestone, "Jerahmeel Doty" died at age 93 (from photo on website of Norman Charles Hill). He was in the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812.

    He appears to be age 86 in the 1850 census (Jerathmun Doty).

    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. Some of the information on this family came from Lois Remington Smith in "A Remington Family History.")

    Joshua Remington, Sr. was a soldier in the Revolutionary War.

    The family moved from Abington, MA, to Cummington, MA, sometime between 1772 and 1776. Joshua's three lots in northwest Cummington are in the area known as Remington's Hill (also called Bryant Mt., after the poet William Cullen Bryant who was born in Cummington).

    In 1780 there was a controversy concerning Joshua Remington in the local church, in which his name appears in the church records quite a bit. Among other accusations was that he was causing schisms in the church by his charges against the pastor.

    Joshua and family are in the 1800 census, but not the 1810. His son Benjamin was appointed Administrator of Joshua's estate on 15 Oct 1811 (Probate records of Northampton, Hampshire Co., MA).

    Lois Remington Smith has noted his date of death as Sep 1811.
