4. Remington Northup, Sr. was born 1 Feb 1764, North Kingstown, RI (son of William Northup and Ann Slocum); died 1829, Deerfield, Oneida Co., NY. Notes:
The birth record for Remington Northup says he was a son of Nicholas & Ann (Slocum) Northup. Was this a clerk's error? I have a marriage for another Ann Slocum to Nicholas, William's older brother; but supposedly she died defore Remington would have been born. This puzzling entry needs more research.
At the present time I am assuming that Remington was indeed a son of William & Ann. He went to Oneida, NY, as they did. Also, he named a son William.Remington married Amy Knowles Abt 1791. Amy was born Abt 1769. [Group Sheet]

I would like to find out where the name Remington (for one of their sons) comes from.
The birth record for Remington Northup says he was a son of Nicholas & Ann (Slocum) Northup. Was this a clerk's error? I have a marriage for another Ann Slocum to Nicholas, William's older brother; but supposedly she died defore Remington would have been born. This puzzling entry needs more research.
William was a Drum Major in the RI troops in the Revolutionary War. His gravestone is inscribed "A hero of the Revolution."
There is a very interesting account of this family and some allied families in both RI & NY, titled "Biography of Henry Knowles Greene, Town of New Haven, NY" [http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyoswego/biographies/hgreene.html].William married Ann Slocum 16 Aug 1761, Jamestown, RI. Ann (daughter of Samuel Slocum and Anne Gould) was born 25 May 1742, South Kingstown, RI; died 6 Dec 1831, Deerfield, Oneida Co., NY. [Group Sheet]
9. Ann Slocum was born 25 May 1742, South Kingstown, RI (daughter of Samuel Slocum and Anne Gould); died 6 Dec 1831, Deerfield, Oneida Co., NY. Notes:
I am making an assumption that this marriage in Jamestown, for Ann Slocum, daughter of Samuel & Ann, puts the bride in this family group, even though I have not found a birth record for her as yet (needs more research).
Notes:
William, of Nicholas & Freelove, deceased, of North Kingstown, married Ann Slocum, of Samuel & Ann, deceased, 16 Aug 1761, Jamestown.
