    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.
