    Adeline — A. M. Hill. [Group Sheet]


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  John B. Congdon was born Abt 1802, VT (son of Joseph Congdon and Hannah Brown); died 1888, Onalaska, La Crosse Co., WI.

    Notes:

    It has been suggested that his middle name have been Brown (maiden name of his mother), but to my knowledge no proof has been given. Someone else has suggested that the B could stand for Briggs, maiden name of his grandmother.

    In the Federal Census of 1850, John & Phebe and family are living at Henry Co., IL. John and his son Gilbert are shoemakers. Another daughter, Emily Congdon 13, is listed on the same page, living with the Matthew Buck family.

    In the Federal Census of 1860, J. B. Congdon, age 58 VT, is living with the Wendell family at Farmington, LaCrosse Co., WI. He is a farmer.

    In 1870 and 1880, John is married to Rebecca and living at Farmington, LaCrosse Co., WI. They have two children.

    According to the 1880 census data, John's parents were born in RI/VT.

    The family lived in Canada for a while (see "History of La Crosse County, Wisconsin" by Consul Willshire Butterfield, Western Historical Company, p. 850).

    John married Phebe Remington 9 Mar 1819, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT. Phebe (daughter of Jonathan Remington and Martha Sprague) was born 24 May 1799, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT; died 21 May 1863, Illinois or WI. [Group Sheet]


  2. 3.  Phebe Remington was born 24 May 1799, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT (daughter of Jonathan Remington and Martha Sprague); died 21 May 1863, Illinois or WI.

    Notes:

    Information on Phebe's marriage was obtained from a descendant, Toni (Clark) Thompson. I have made an assumption that this married belongs to this particular Phebe Remington, based on all available evidence: her age in the census records, place of marriage, and state of birth.

    A family tree at Rootsweb's Worldconnect has her date of death as follows: 21 MAY 1863 in La Crosse Co., WI (source: Wagoner Tree).

    1. 2. John B. Congdon was born Abt 1802, VT; died 1888, Onalaska, La Crosse Co., WI.
    2. Benjamin Reynolds Congdon was born Abt 1811, VT; died 1898; was buried , Gillford Cemetery, Wabasha Co., MN.

  3. 6.  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?).

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me -- Lois Sorensen, Remington researcher -- and/or to other sources as noted herein. Some of the information on this family came from Lois Remington Smith in "A Remington Family History.")

    Joshua Remington, Sr. was a soldier in the Revolutionary War.

    The family moved from Abington, MA, to Cummington, MA, sometime between 1772 and 1776. Joshua's three lots in northwest Cummington are in the area known as Remington's Hill (also called Bryant Mt., after the poet William Cullen Bryant who was born in Cummington).

    In 1780 there was a controversy concerning Joshua Remington in the local church, in which his name appears in the church records quite a bit. Among other accusations was that he was causing schisms in the church by his charges against the pastor.

    Joshua and family are in the 1800 census, but not the 1810. His son Benjamin was appointed Administrator of Joshua's estate on 15 Oct 1811 (Probate records of Northampton, Hampshire Co., MA).

    Lois Remington Smith has noted his date of death as Sep 1811.
