Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Stewart Remington was born Sep 1869, NY (son of Reuben Remington and Julia Unknown); died Aft 15 Apr 1910.

    Notes:

    In the Federal Census of 1900, Stewart Remington age 30 is a prisoner at the Onondaga County Penitentiary, Syracuse, NY. His birth month and year agree with the 1880 census.

    In 1910, Stuart Remington is 40 and single, living at Lysander, Onondaga Co., NY. He is a paper hanger.


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Reuben Remington was born Abt 1842, NY (son of Lewis Remington and Julia A. Pickard); died Aft 1 Jun 1880.

    Notes:

    In the Federal Census of 1870, Reuben 28 NY and his wife Julia 18 Canada are living at Elbridge, Onondaga Co., NY. They have a son, Steward, 9 months.

    In the Federal Census of 1880, Reuben is 38 NY and his wife Lottie is age 35 NY. They are at Elbridge, NY. Two sons are in the household: Steward 11 NY and Reuben 1 NY. I am making an assumption that Lottie is Reuben's second wife, based on the name and age difference.

    I can't find either of them in a later census, nor can I find the young Reuben. Sadly, Stewart is a prisoner in 1900.

    Reuben married Julia Unknown Abt 1868. Julia was born Abt 1852, Canada; died Aft 1 Jun 1870. [Group Sheet]


  2. 3.  Julia Unknown was born Abt 1852, Canada; died Aft 1 Jun 1870.

  1. 4.  Lewis Remington was born Abt 1818, VT (son of Ransom Remington and Matilda Eddy); died Aft 1 Jun 1880.

    Notes:

    In the Federal Census of 1850, the family is at Elbridge, Onondaga Co., NY: Lewis 32 VT, Julia 29 NY, James 10 NY, Reuben 8 NY, and Maryett 2 NY.

    In the Federal Census of 1860, the family is still living at Elbridge, Onondaga Co., NY: Lewis 43, Julia 41, Margaret 12, and Charles 2.

    In the Federal Census of 1870, Lewis Remington is age 52 and Julia A. is 50; son Charles W. is 12. They are still living at Elbridge, Onondaga Co., NY.

    In the Federal Census of 1880, Lewis & Julia, ages 62 & 60, are still at Elbridge, NY. The census gives Lewis's birthplace as VT, as well as the birthplace of both parents.

    Lewis married Julia A. Pickard Abt 1839, NY. Julia was born Apr 1820, NY; died Aft 1 Jun 1900. [Group Sheet]


  2. 5.  Julia A. Pickard was born Apr 1820, NY; died Aft 1 Jun 1900.

    Notes:

    Julia's maiden name as Pickard was given to me by Nancy Olejniczak.

    In the Federal Census of 1900, Julia Remington is a widow age 80, living at Camillus, Onondaga Co., NY, with son Charles 42. According to the census data, Julia has had two children. I am not sure about this. Could Lewis have had a previous marriage? This needs more research.

Generation: 4

  1. 8.  Ransom Remington was born Between 1792 and 1795, VT (son of Stephen Remington and Thankful Hill); died 24 May 1884, Dayton, Cattaraugus Co., NY.

    Notes:

    In the Federal Census of 1850, Ransom & Matilda Remington, ages 52 VT & 49 MA, are living at Dayton, Cattaraugus Co., NY. They have seven children in the household: Silas 18, Laura 15, Adaline 13, Emerson 11, Emery 8, Olive 8, & Alzada 5.

    In the Federal Census of 1860, Ransom & Matilda Remington, ages 63 & 60, are still living at Dayton. Four children are in the household: Emmerson 21, Emma J. 18, Alzada 15, and Eri 12. (Eri is named in Ransom's will, but I believe he is a grandson, based on the obituary for Arvilla, wife of Charles -- unless there were two individuals named Eri born around the same year)

    In the Federal Census of 1870, Ransom & Matilda Remington, ages 73 VT & 65 MA, are still living at Dayton, Cattaraugus Co., NY. They are next to Silas & Arvilla Remington and family.

    In the Federal Census of 1880, Ransom Remington is age 86 VT (VT/VT), still living at Dayton, Cattaraugus Co., NY. He is living with son-in-law David Comstock and family.

    Ransom's will, made in 1881, says he was 86 years old at that time. If true, he was born c 1795. (source: D. Rockwell, a descendant)

    Nancy Olejniczak sent me a copy of a "Petition for Proof of Will, to the Surrogate of the County of Cattaraugus." This document refers to Ransom's will dated 3 Oct 1881. This will appointed as Executors Francis E. Haines and Emery Jane Comstock. The document lists all the heirs and next of kin of Ransom, along with their places of residence. Listed are: Lewis Remington, Hiram Remington, Arminal (?) Bunstow, Emerson Remington, Adaline Rockwell, Olive Robinson, Emory Jane Comstock, Silas Remington, Alzada Comstock, Eri Remington, Silas Remington, and Laura S. Chattuck. Also listed are numerous grandchildren. [My note -- these last three are grandchildren -- children of son Charles who died bef. 1855)

    From findagrave.com (needs more research to be confirmed):
    "There is no stone for Ransom. Cemetery records show that he owned a plot of eight graves but do not indicate who was buried there. The only stones in the area are for his wife Matilda and son Emerson. Lacking other proof, it is assumed that Ransom was buried here next to his wife. Ransom came to Dayton in the early 1830s from Marcellus, Onondaga Co., NY. His brother Orange arrived at about the same time and they might have traveled together."

    Ransom married Matilda Eddy Abt 1818, VT. Matilda was born Abt 1800, MA; died 13 Dec 1873, NY; was buried , Markhams Cemetery, Dayton, Cattaraugus Co., NY. [Group Sheet]


  2. 9.  Matilda Eddy was born Abt 1800, MA; died 13 Dec 1873, NY; was buried , Markhams Cemetery, Dayton, Cattaraugus Co., NY.

    Notes:

    Matilda's maiden name as Eddy was given to me by Nancy Olejniczak in an email dated 24 June 2011. The information was obtained from Olive's marriage record.

    Matilda's memorial stone can be viewed at findagrave.com
