Notes:

Horace Remington: Last Residence - Sharon, Litchfield, Connecticut, United States of America
Born: 16 Jan 1891
Died: Apr 1968
State SSN issued: New Jersey (Before 1951)

Horace married Ruth K. Unknown Abt 11 Jun 1914, St. Mark's Episcopal Church, Milwaukee, WI. Ruth was born 22 May 1894; died 7 Mar 1988, CT. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

The 1900 Federal Census says Frederick was born in Oct 1850, but it had to be 1849, because he was in the 1850 census.

In 1900, Fred H. & Cora Remington are living at 158 Knapp Milwaukee, Milwaukee Co., WI, with their three living children (according to the census data, she has had one child that is no longer living).

Frederick married Cora Unknown Abt 1881. Cora was born Jul 1858, NY; died Aft Apr 1910. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

The 1900 Federal Census appears to say that Cora was born in Jul 1868, but that must not be correct, because she was married c1881. Her age is 41, but that is crossed out and 31 is lightly written in above that. It also says she has been married 19 years, and she could not have been married at age 12! So, I have entered her date of birth as Jul 1858, based on the age 41 in 1900. This agrees with her age given as 51 in 1910.

In the 1910 Federal Census, Cora M. Remington, widow, and two of her children, Charlotte & Horace W., are living on Van Buren St., Milwaukee, WI.

"At an adjourned meeting of the trustees held May 7, 1842, J. V. H. Clark was chosen clerk; Abner Duell, John Merritt, fire wardens; Joseph Smith, treasurer; William Warner, collector; Lyman Benson, pound master, and it was voted "that his yard be a pound for the village."

Associated with the fire company was Eagle Hose Company."
