John and Abigail and family were residents of Newport and Kingstown, RI, according to "Representative Men of Old Families of Southeastern MA," V. I, p. 173.

Boyd Scott Remington's ancestry chart has John's date of birth as 12 March 1651.

He became a freeman 30 April 1678.

See notes for his father. Some of the information cited there could pertain to this John Remington.

John married Abigail Richmond 1679. Abigail (daughter of Edward RICHMOND, I and Abigail DAVIS) was born Abt 1656, Newport, RI; died 20 Jul 1744, South Kingstown, RI. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Abigail's parents were "of Haverhill, MA."

She was the widow of John Remington when she married Henry Gardner (see notes for Henry!).

The Rev. Dr. MacSparran in his diary (Sept 30th and Oct 4th 1744) speaks of the death of his wife's grandmother, at the great age of eighty-eight years.

If Abigail was the daughter of Edward's second wife, Abigail, she must have been born after Edward who was born in 1658, son of Amey.

According to Boyd Scott Remington's genealogy chart at RIHSL, John, Jr. was born in 1633 in Rowley, England. He defended Jamestown against the Indians on 28 August 1669, and was granted land in East Greenwich in 1677. He resided in Haverhill and Rowley, MA, and Jamestown & Warwick, RI.

According to Carl Boyer III in "Ancestral Lines Revised," and genealogist Gordon L. Remington, John Remington II was born 1623-1624. However, a more recent article by Gordon L. Remington places John's birth c 1630 (source: The New England Historical and Genealogical Register, Vol. 147, p. 371).

Alden G. Beaman's article "A Line of Descent from John Remington of Jamestown and Warwick" (RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 20, p.39) gives his year of birth as c. 1625.

According to genealogist Armand Lariviere, "John Remington, the founder of the Rhode Island branch of the Remington family, first settled in Haverhill, MA, and became a citizen of Portsmouth, RI in 1669."

In Haverhill, MA, in 1661 when 53 lots were drawn, John Remington is listed among the names. He is also among the recipients of land in July 1667, when he received 4 acres in Haverhill. (source: "History of Haverhill Since Settlement in 1640" pp. 92 & 106; on Family Archive CD #502)

John Remington II, eldest child of John Remington I, was probably born about 1630 (ref: Gordon L. Remington). This John Remington is our ancestor. Boyd Scott Remington's ancestry chart gives his birth year as 1633. John, Jr. was with his family in Newbury in 1637 and in Rowley in 1638. In Rowley records he is mentioned as "junior" and in deeds as "carpenter." He most likely remained there with his father until 1649, when he married Abigail Acie/Acey, and then about 1654 he removed to Andover, where there is a record of him from 1654 to 1656. Around 1661 he settled in Haverhill, MA, but did not remain there very long, because shortly after 1664 he was identified as a member of the colony of Jamestown, RI. Later, in a deed dated June 2, 1670, he described himself as "of the Island of Quanonagutt" (probably phonetic spelling for Conanicut, native name for Jamestown, RI) in the colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations." This deed transferred a parcel of land in Rowley to Anthony Crosby.

[The record states that] "On August 28, 1669, he (John Remington) and two others (John Holmes & Michael Kelly) were named as Conservators of the Peace, and ordered to assemble the inhabitants of Conanicut Island, to consider what may be most suitable for their defense and preservation against any invasion or insurrection of the Indians."

Also, in 1677 it was ordered that a certain 5,000-acre tract of land in the East Greenwich area be divided into 100-acre lots, to accommodate inhabitants of the colony as needed. "And further this Assembly do enact, order and declare, for the services rendered during King Philip's War, the persons here named" . . . There follow the names of fifty persons [to receive land] among which is that of John Remington. [Note: likewise our ancestor Capt. Benjamin Gorton, whose daughter Maplet later married Thomas Remington, Jr., grandson of John Jr.] On 6 Sept 1687, John Remington, Junior is on a list for taxes under Gov. Andros, assessing estates of the Towne of Rochester in the King's Province. (Rochester is a former name for North Kingstown, RI.) My observation -- this John Remington could be his son, who married Abigail Richmond and lived in South Kingstown.

Around this time [John Remington II] removed to Warwick, RI, where he on Aug. 13, 1709 confirmed an earlier deed of May 24, 1695 in which he had given to his son Thomas Remington of Warwick "all my right which I had at Haverhill, Mass. and [said deed being somehow damaged and nearly illegible], being willing gift, should stand, therefore for love, etc." His son Thomas received a house and town lot at Haverhill containing four acres, also two orchards and 40 acres called "Fishing River." [Note: this son Thomas is our ancestor.] John Jr. died in 1709 in Warwick, RI. Many of his descendants remained in this spot five or more generations later.

Like his father John the first, John Jr. was a carpenter. His eldest son, John, was born 12 March 1651 in Rowley, MA; he resided in Newport and Kingston, RI, and died in Jamestown, RI (not sure about this). [This son John (the third) married Abigail Richmond. His brother, John Jr.'s third son, named Thomas, married Mary Allen; this couple are our ancestors.]

According to Carl Boyer III, in "Ancestral Lines Revised," p. 337, John II married second to Martha (Unknown).

John — Abigail ACIE. Abigail (daughter of William ACIE, Jr. and Margaret HAITON) was born Abt 1628. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

This marriage is listed in "New England Marriages Prior to 1700" ( by Clarence Almon Torrey, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., Baltimore, 1985), which gives the year of the birth of their first child as 1650, and locations of record as Rowley/Haverhill/Andover.

Notes:

Apparently Edward married Amey Bull & Abigail Davis; some genealogies say it is not clear which one was the mother of Edward II. But, see marriage story below. Edward was Attorney General of RI from 1677 to 1680; he was General Solicitor (same job, different title) in 1667, 1669/70, 1672, and 1677. He was Deputy to the RI General Court in 1678/9 and 1686, and was also a captain and lieutenant at Newport. He was probably a son of John "Webb" Richmond b.1592 & Elizabeth Nicholas, who came to America in 1635.

In 1656, Edward's Richmond's attorneys unsuccessfully sued Richard Ussell, who was Abigail's legal husband, she having been forced to marry him when Edward was already "espoused to" her. Later they successfully argued the case on the basis of trespass for breach of covenant. A petition in Abigail's name was presented to the General Assembly resulting in a declaration that the prior marriage to Ussell was "an unlawful marriage." Edward and Abigail had to pay a fine of forty shillings for living together and conceiving a child. The Court of Trials married the couple "for preventing of the like Temptation." (from "the Transatlantic Constitution" by Mary Sarah Bilder)

The following is from Daniel P. Himes' genealogy at Geni.com: "Abigail Davis, the first wife of Edward Richmond . . went to court in 1657 to annul her forced marriage to Richard Ussell. The court committee, headed by Roger Williams, finally decided in her favor, but only after delaying the decision for six weeks . . . The following summer (1658) Abigail and Edward were charged with living together contrary by law, and having a child (Abigail, born 1656) out of wedlock. They were fined and then conveniently declared to be married by the court 'as they been twice published according to law but . . . (Rev.) Obediah Holmes forbade it.' "

See details at findagrave.com

Edward married Abigail DAVIS Abt Jun 1658. Abigail (daughter of William DAVIS) was born Abt 1637; died Jul 1682; was buried , Little Compton, RI. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Apparently Abigail was married when very young to Richard Ussell, but this marriage was declared unlawful by the Assembly, because she said her mother and stepfather, John Cowdall, had forced it on her. In 1656 she testified that her own choice was Edward Richmond. (see "Family Notes" at the Knight Memorial Library in Providence, RI; now at Providence Central Public Library)

The following is from Daniel P. Himes' genealogy at Geni.com:

"On May 20, 1657, Abigail Davis petitioned the Assembly alleging that her step-father John Cowdall and her mother had forced her into a marriage with Richard Ussell, and later in the same year the Assembly declared that the marriage was unlawful and that she was free to marry Edward Richmond, whom she declared in her petition to be her choice. When old Portsmouth was divided and Newport organized, Portsmouth was reorganized, and James Davice (Davis) signed (by his mark), April 30, 1639, forming 'the body politick' of Portsmouth: and in the list of the inhabitants of Acquednic Island (who had become such by consent of the goverment), dated September 1, 1640, James Davis's name appears; it does not appear again, and as there were no other of the name (save, possibly, Nicholas, who lived till 1671), it would seem that he was the father of Abigail Davis, and at the time Abigail married Edward Richmond, he had died and his widow had married John Cowdall.

"In one copy of "The Richmond Family" her father's name of James Davis was crossed out and the name 'William Davis' was handwritten in.

"Abigail Davis, the first wife of Edward Richmond . . went to court in 1657 to annul her forced marriage to Richard Ussell. The court committee, headed by Roger Williams, finally decided in her favor, but only after delaying the decision for six weeks due to the great disturbance made by the bystanders. The following summer (1658) Abigail and Edward were charged with living together contrary by law, and having a child (Abigail, born 1656) out of wedlock. They were fined and then conveniently declared to be married by the court 'as they been twice published according to law but . . . (Rev.) Obediah Holmes forbade it'.

"The Richmond Genealogy suggests that the father of Abigail Davis was James Davis of Portsmouth, but there was a William Davis, locksmith, of Boston, who died in 1643/4, leaving a widow, Mary, and a daughter, Abigail. The widow married John Cowdall and the family relocated to Portsmouth, RI."

"Ordered, that Mr. Richard Tew, Mr. John Greene, Jr., of Warwicke, Mr. Thomas Harris, of Providence, and Edward Greenman, of Newport, are apoynted a sub-committee to goe to Abigail, daughter-in-law to Mr. John Cowdall, and to carrie the petition that was presented to the court in her name, and to enquire of her if she owne it to be hers, and to informe themselves of other circumstances from her thereabout, and to make report thereof to the Court to-morrow morninge, at the meetinge of the Court.

"Upon a petition of richard Ussell, to this court for justice concerninge an execution graunted to him against Edward Richmond, or Newport, for the sum of three pound, thirteen shillings; which execution beinge unserved by reason that noe estate was found to serve it on, and now beinge adjitated in the Court for redress in the same, here appeared John Richmond, of Newport, Sen'r, and to the Court doth agree to pay the sayd sum mentioned in the execution to Richard Ussell or his assigns, before the 24th of June next, upon the penalty of a double bond forfeiture, payable to the sayd Ussell, recoverable by law.

"Concerninge the nihil dicit entered against Richard Ussell and John Cowdall, of Newport, by Edward Richmond, before the court of tryalls in October last, at Portsmouth, some difficulty arisinge in the Courts aboute it, and they referringe it to this Court to consider; the Court declareth that the Jury shall enquire of the damages upon the sayd nihil dicit, and judgment and execution shall be entered and graunted at the General Court of Tryalls a Warwicke in June next, in that case. . .

"The Report of the sub-committee yesterday chosen and sent to Abigall, daughter of John Cowdall is, that haveinge read the petition to the sayd Abigall, which was subscribed Abigall Davis, she owned the sayd petition to be her act, and likewise disclaimed Richard Ussell, and only owned Edward Richmond, and further professed that what she had done with respect to Richard Ussell, was for feare of being forced to it by her father and mother.

"Upon adjitation concerninge Richard Ussell and Abigall Davis, the Court declareth theire resolution to consider and debate the matter, as to theire sence concerninge the marridge of the sayd Ussell with the sayd Abigall Davis, whether it were legall or not.

"Upon the great disturbance made by standers by in the beginninge of the adjitation abovesayd, the Court hath for the present deferred the debate of the matter any further. . .

"It is ordered, and by this court declared, that the maridge of Richard Ussell with Abigall Davis was an unlawfull marridge."

"On May 20, 1657, Abigail Davis petitioned the Assembly, alleging that her stepfa. John Cowdall and her mo. had forced her into a m. with Richard Ussell, and later the same year the Assembly declared that the m. was unlawful and that she was free to marry Edward Richmond, whom she declared in her petition to be her choice."

John Remington, the first Remington ancestor in America, came here about 1637 and settled at Newbury, MA (just north of Boston), where he became a freeman (full-fledged citizen) 22 May 1638 (one source says 1639). About two years later he moved to Rowley, MA (probably to be with Rev. Ezekiel Rogers and his party from Rowley, Yorkshire, England), and was commissioned a lieutenant of the first military company there on 13 May 1643, under the command of Capt. Sebastian Brigham. He had a two-acre house lot there (Rowley is close to Newbury, a little to the southwest). Later he moved to Roxbury, MA (now a city neighborhood just south of Boston), and reconstructed its meetinghouse in 1658. He became a proprietor there and is also mentioned in the town records of April 1662 as "late inhabitant of Rowley now of Roxbury." He sold land there in 1659 and 1662. His wife Elizabeth died at Rowley in 1657, after which he married Rhoda Gore, widow of John Gore. Some online genealogies have her maiden name as Rose (?). She survived him and later married Edward Porter as her third husband. (See "New England Marriages Prior to 1700" by Clarence Almon Torrey; also Rootsweb's Worldconnect -- Debora Heath's data)

Genealogist Armand Lariviere tells his story with some variations: John Remington, the youngest of 10 children, came to America in 1638 with Ezekiel Rogers [but he probably came earlier] and a group that included 20 families from Rowley, England. They founded Rowley, MA, where John became a freeman on 22 March 1639 [38?]. Other records show the following about him: was granted land on Weathersfield St., 1643; was made Sergeant of the militia, 14 May 1645; was lieutenant of the Rowley Co., Pequot War, 26 May 1647; was a carpenter and a schoolteacher, 1656; was left L300 capital and L30 annuity by his father, and L10 annuity by his brother Timothy. John Remington moved to Roxbury between 1659 and 1662; married (2nd) Rhoda Gardner Gore (widow of John Gore) b. 1607, d. 1693. Rhoda later married Edward Porter, on 13 June 1674 (he b. ca. 1610, d. 1677).

His estate was administered by son Jonathan and son-in-law John Stedman of Cambridge, MA.

Some genealogists and many Remington family members connect this first Remington immigrant to the lineage of Archdeacon Richard Remington, who married Elizabeth Hutton, daughter of Archbishop of York Matthew Hutton. These families are associated with several locations in England: Rowley, Lund, Garrowby, Lockington, and Kirby Underdale in Yorkshire; and Rimington, now in Lancashire but (I think) formerly in Yorkshire (before county boundaries were changed). There is some evidence for believing that John Remington is indeed of this lineage, but no absolute proof has been found. At the very least, there are definite indications that he had ties to Yorkshire.

(See also "Ancestral Lines Revised" by Carl Boyer III, pp. 336 & 337 for similar information with some slight variation in dates.)

Archbishop Hutton was sympathetic toward Puritans at a time in history when they were being marginalized and punished. (See Wikipedia article)

The following information is from three sources:
"Some History and Genealogy on the Remington Line in England and America" by J. W. Remington
"History of Warwick" by Oliver Payson Fuller (at Rhode Island Historical Society Library)
Paul Remington's web site: http://www.uftree.com/UFT/WebPages/Paul-Remington/REMFAM/

John was baptized in Yorkshire, England, Feb. 7, 1599/1600. (This is the date of baptism of John Remington, youngest son of Archdeacon Richard Remington 1548-1615 of Yorkshire, England. It is believed very likely that this is the same individual as John Remington, the first Remington immigrant. However, absolute "proof" does not exist.)

The departure of the Remingtons from England was probably on religious grounds. Three thousand persons left for America from different parts of England in 1637. In 1638 the Reverend Ezekiel Rogers, rector of Rowley, near Beverly - 20 miles from Garrowby, left for America with all the farmers of his parish for religious reasons. Rogers, a Puritan sympathizer, had been suspended for not conforming to certain regulations for public worship, as prescribed by Charles I and Archbishop Laud.

On reaching America these colonists [with Rev. Rogers] found other Yorkshire people near Boston [including John Remington and his family]. They joined forces with these earlier settlers and formed a new settlement near Salem, Mass., which they called Rowley after the old home of so many of them. The town charter was dated 4 Sept 1639. For nearly five years they held land and labored in common. It was not until 1643 that a home lot was laid out for each family.

All the records seem to agree that John Remington the first [immigrant] landed at Newbury, in what is now known as Massachusetts, in the year 1637. It also seems clear that his first child, John the second, was born in England about 1623-24. The date of birth of John Remington the first is not known, but it may be assumed that if his first child was born in 1628, he may have been married about 1626, and it would be reasonable to think that he was about 22 or 23 years of age when he married. If all these assumptions are correct, he may have been born about 1604/5.

The records show that he remained at Newbury for two years and at the end of that time he was made "freeman" and removed to Rowley, Massachusetts. The move to Rowley was made in 1639 and in that connection, it may be of interest to note that Reverend Ezekiel Rogers, who was the founder and first minister of Rowley [Massachusetts], came to America in the ship John, sailing from Hull, Yorkshire, and landed at Boston, New England, on December 2, 1638. Rogers and his company wintered in Salem, Ipswich, and Boston, whence they began to look for a permanent home . . . They finally selected a place on the shore between Newbury and Ipswich where they, with about forty other families who had joined them, settled in 1639. [Ezekiel Rogers' new plantation was called Rowley. Rev. Rogers had been born in 1590, and had been a minister for 17 years at Rowley, Yorkshire, before coming to America.] These facts regarding Rogers are given because they seem to point strongly to the possibility that John Remington the first joined Rogers' company and went to Rowley with [them]. Bear in mind that he, too, came from Yorkshire. (*see addional notes below on Rogers)

The streets of the town were officially laid out in 1643 . . . One of the lots went to John Remington . . . two acres, bounded on the west side by the commons . . . It appears that John Remington the first resided at Rowley until about June 1657, when he conveyed to Jochim Reyner his dwelling house, lot, and pasture. In April 1662 he described himself as late of Rowley, now of Roxbury . . . It is also stated that by deed dated October 22, 1662, he, then of Roxbury, conveyed four score acres of land in Rowley on the Merrimack River to William Sterling of Rowley.

Boston Records, Roxbury, Vol. 43, states as follows: "The name of Lieutenant John Remington is associated with the First Church of Roxbury, which was a crude and unbeautiful structure with a thatched roof, destitute of shingles or plaster, without a gallery, pew, or spire. The people sat on plain benches, the women and men on opposite sides of the house. In 1646 the first house was put in 'safe repair' and in 1656 the ends were clapboarded . . . [On] January 12, 1658, it was agreed that the meeting-hawes be repaired for the warmth and comfort of the people; namely that the hawes is to be shingled and also two galleries built, with three seats in a gallery, one at the one end of the hawes and the other at the other end. Also the hawes to be plastered within side with plaster and haire; also for the seting out of the howse, that some pinakle or other ornament be set upon each end of the hawse . . . and the charge to be borne by the several inhabitants of the town by way of a rate. For which work Lieut. John Remington is to have twenty-two pounds; more, if the work deserveth more; less, if the work deserveth less."

The exact date on which John the first removed from Rowley and settled in Roxbury is not known. However, historians fix the date as about June 1657 . . . [He] lost his first wife, Elizabeth, in 1657/58 and was married a second time, possibly sometime in 1659, to Mrs. Rhoda Gore, widow of John Gore . . . who had settled at Roxbury in 1635. John Remington died at Roxbury 8 April 1667 [should be June], leaving no will.

About Yorkshire, from the website origins.net:
Prior to 1974, when new boundaries were introduced, Yorkshire was by far the largest county in England. Split into three Ridings - North, West and East - derived from the Viking word "thrithing," meaning third part, Yorkshire boasted over 3.75 million acres and laid claim to a recognizable identity dating back to Anglo-Saxon times.

* Additional notes on Rev. Ezekiel Rogers from Rootsweb's mailing list archives for Eng-East Yorks, 2000: "Ezekiel Rogers was a 17th century Rector of Rowley (sw of Beverley in the East Riding) who disapproved of games being played on a Sunday. Because of this, he refused to read out the Book of Sports in his church, in spite of an order that it should be read in every church in the country. As a consequence of this, he was turned out of his living and, together with 20 families from Rowley, emigrated to America . . . Ezekiel Rogers held the degrees of bachelor and master of arts from Christ's College Cambridge. After serving as chaplain in the family of Sir Francis and Lady Joan Barrington, the latter the aunt of Oliver Cromwell, at Hatfield Broad Oak, Essex, he was presented by his patron to the rectorship of St Peter's at Rowley, in Yorkshire which drew its congregation from the neighbouring hamlets of Bentley, Hunsley, Riplingham, Risby and Little Weighton. He was there for 17 years where he embraced the principles of non separating Congregationalism. He apparently met with no molestation as long as Tobie Matthew, George Montaigne and Samual Harsnett held the see of York. With the advent of Richard Neile, conditions changed however, and for "refusing to Reade that accursed Booke that allowed sports on Gods holy sabbath" he was suspended. Despite efforts by Archbishop Neile over a period of two years to reclaim him to orthodoxy, he gathered a small company of Yorkshire adherants and set for for London (they sailed from Hull). In the spring of 1638 he resigned his living at Rowley from aboard ship sailing for new England . . . The families who went with Rev. Ezekiel Rogers in 1638 (18 years after the Mayflower) to Massachusetts Bay were mostly of 'good estate.' There were 20 families . . . The Town of Rowley was founded in 1639 by the Reverend Ezekiel Rogers and a band of 20 families from Rowley, Yorkshire, England. The group sailed on the ship John of London bringing with them the first printing press to be used in America, the famous "Daye Press" which was to be set up in Cambridge." The Rowley Manor Hotel in East Yorkshire is said to have been built by Rev. Rogers in 1621 as the rectory to Saint Peter

John married Elizabeth Unknown Abt 1623, England. Elizabeth was born Abt 1605, England; died Abt 22 Dec 1657, Rowley, Essex Co., MA; was buried 24 Dec 1657, Rowley, Essex Co., MA. [Group Sheet]
