    Notes:

  1. 8.  Charles Remington was born Abt 1802, MA (son of Ezekiel Remington and Sally Bliss); died Aft Nov 1846.

    Notes:

    I have roughly estimated Charles's year of birth.

    I have made an assumption that Anna is his wife and Ezekiel his son, based on a gravestone at [findagrave.com].

    In the Federal Census of 1840, Charles is listed as a family head at Parma, OH, next to E. Remington and household. Charles's household consists of the following: 1 male <5, 2 males 5<10, 2 males 10<15, 2 males 15<20, 1 male 30<40, and 1 female 30<40. The household next door, of E. Remington, consists of the following: 1 male 60<70, and 2 females 60<70.

    The names of four of Charles's sons were given to me by Nanci Remington, a descendant.

    See notes for Charles's father Ezekiel; in 1827 Ezekiel, Henry, Chancy, and Charles were living at Pittsfield, Lorain Co, OH.
