    From Ray Moot:
    "J. W. REMINGTON, an enterprising business man of Garden City, Missouri is a native of Indiana. He was born in Park (sic) County, Indiana in 1860 son of Elisha and Samantha Denman Remington, the latter a native of Parke County. Elisha Remington was born near Coshocton, Ohio. To Elisha and Samantha Denman Remington 8 children were born: Mrs. Ruth A. Gilkerson, Garden City, Missouri; Isaac, Park County; JW subject of this review; Mrs. Laura Crooks, Topeka, Kansas; Fred, Park County; and two babes died in infancy. By a second marriage of Elisha Remington to Mary Cahill, two children were born: Mrs. Lydia Green and Benjamin Remington. Both live in Parke County. J. W. Remington received his education in the common schools of Indiana but when a youth of 19 came to Cass County, Missouri in 1879. Mr. Remington located in Camp Branch Township where he engaged in farming. In 1883 JW Remington and Rosa E. Crooks, daughter of Rev J. M. and Sarah Thompson Crooks were united in marriage. Rev. JM Crooke (sic) is one of the brave, old pioneers of Cass County. He located 3 miles west of the present site of Garden City in Camp Branch Township and here Sarah Thompson Crooks was called away in 1884. Rev. Crooks resides in Topeka, Kansas. Mr. and Mrs. Remington are the parents of 3 living children: C. C. resident of Garden City, Missouri and mail carrier on RR 2, succeeding his father; C. F. jeweler of Garden City Missouri and Geneva, wife of A. L. Spry of Garden City. Until 1902, Mr. Remington continued his agricultural pursuits in Camp Branch. At that time he was appointed mail carrier on RR 2, out of Garden City. Since 1910 he has been engaged in Garden City in the grain, feed and ice business. In 1911 Mr. Remington was elected assessor for Index Township, a position of trust which he was very ably filled for the past six years, his term expiring in March 1917. At the present writing Mr. Remington is also the tax collector for Garden City. Mr. and Ms. Remington have made their home in Garden City for 14 years. The present site of this city was but a short time ago fields of waving wheat. Mr. Remington has threshed wheat in those fields many times drank water from a well located upon the lot now owned by himself. He has a fund of interesting reminiscences of those days gone by. Dozens of trips he made hauling coal from Rich Hill, the trip requiring two days and a night. He recalls that one night the men had encamped on Deer Creek. A sheet, thrown over the tongue of the wagon was their only cover. IN the early morning they were awakened by a feeling of bitter cold. 4" snow had fallen during the night. JW Remington is a man of courtly manners and splendid mental attainments. During their residence in the county he and Mrs. Remington have gained the respect and esteem of all, making countless friends. JW Remington has been true to every trust reposed in him. Public-spirited and noble hearted he is a power for good in his community."
