Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Dorwin Smith was born Abt Mar 1860, NY (son of Abner Smith and Phebe Celestia Remington); died 29 Jul 1864.

Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Abner Smith was born Between 1823 and 1831, NY; died Between 1870 and 1880.

    Notes:

    In the Federal Census of 1860, the family is as follows: Abner 29 NY (cooper), Celestia 24 NY, Belinda A. 6 NY, and unnamed male infant 3 mos NY. They are living at Champion, Jefferson Co., NY.

    In the 1870 census, the family is still at Champion: Abner 47 NY (cooper), Pheba C. 36 NY, Belinda 15 NY, Charles J. 1 NY, and Johnathan Remington 66 VT.

    By 1880 it appears that Abner has died because Celesta Smith and son Charles are living with married daughter Belinda Collar in Diana, Lewis Co., NY. Johnathan Remington 78 VT is also there.

    Abner married Phebe Celestia Remington Abt 1853. Phebe (daughter of Jonathan Remington and Unknown Wife) was born Between 1834 and 1837, NY; died 1908. [Group Sheet]


  2. 3.  Phebe Celestia Remington was born Between 1834 and 1837, NY (daughter of Jonathan Remington and Unknown Wife); died 1908.

    Notes:

    By 1880 it appears that Abner has died because the 1880 Federal Census lists Celesta Smith 43 NY and son Charles 13 NY living with married daughter Belinda Collar 24 NY (wife of George) in Diana, Lewis Co., NY. Johnathan Remington 78 VT is also with them, so this is a three-generation household.

    Children:
    1. Belinda A. Smith was born Abt 1854, NY; died 14 Oct 1920, NY.
    2. 1. Dorwin Smith was born Abt Mar 1860, NY; died 29 Jul 1864.
    3. Charles J. Smith was born Between 1867 and 1869, NY; died Aft 1 Jun 1880.


Generation: 3

  1. 6.  Jonathan Remington was born 1 May 1801, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT (son of Jonathan Remington and Martha Sprague); died Feb 1892, Jefferson Co., NY.

    Notes:

    In the Federal Census of 1830, listings for Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT, show Jonathan Rimmington and Jonathan Rimmington Jr. Jonathan Jr. has three children in the household: 1 female 5<10, 1 female <5, and 1 male <5.

    In the Federal Census of 1840, a Jonathan Remington appears at Wallingford, VT. However, according to Mary Lou Raftery, this Jonathan is at Diana, Lewis Co., NY (not accessible at ancestry.com).

    Information on the 1865 census at Diana, NY, is from Mary Lou Raftery: Jonathan Remington 61 VT, Nathan Remington son-in-law 37 Jeff. NY, Rhoda Remington 34 child VT, Emily J. Walod 19 adopted Jeff. NY, Jonathan A. Bowhall 4 adopted Lewis Co., NY.

    In the 1870 census, Johnathan Remington 66 VT is living at Champion, Jefferson Co., NY. He is with married daughter Phebe C. and her husband Abner Smith and famiy.

    In the Federal Census of 1880, Jonathan Remington is age 78 VT, living with the family of George Collar in Diana, Lewis Co., NY. Jonathan is identified as grandfather. His brother John, age 90 in the census, is also living at Diana, NY.

    Who was his wife? Where is he in the censuses of 1850 and 1860?

    The intersection of NY Rts. 3 & 812 in Diana, Lewis Co., NY, is called "Remington Corners."

    Credit note: The list of Jonathan's children and descendants (except for Phebe Celestia and her family, and the above-mentioned George Collar and his family) came to me from Mary Lou Raftery.

Generation: 4

  1. 12.  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?).
