Albert married Jennie V. Carter Abt 1900. Jennie was born 1879, VT; died 1951; was buried , Locust Grove Cemetery, Providence, RI. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

The Rhode Island Death Index identifies him as a son of Albert & Eliza, and says he died at age 54, which would make his year of birth c1845. Census data puts his birth variously at 1844, 1845, and 1846.

Albert is with his parents and siblings in 1850 and 1860. In the 1870 Federal Census Albert F. Remington, age 25, is living with his wife Marietta, age 21, in Ward 1, Providence, RI. They have a young son, Ferdinand, age 2. The RI Death Index records Marietta's death in 1872. In the 1875 RI Census, Albert F. Remington is age 29, (second wife) Lucy is 30, son Ferdinand H. is 7, and daughter Annie E. is 8 months; they are at Providence. In 1880 Albert F.

The RI Marriage Index has her middle initial as S.

Notes:

The Rhode Island Death Index identifies Alfred F. Remington as a son of Charles & Mary Remington. I have made an assumption that he belongs in this particular family group, because I know of no other couple named Charles & Mary in this time frame. Also, the names of Alfred's children are important clues that reflect the names of his siblings.

In the 1850 Federal Census, Alfred F. & Eliza Remington, ages 45 & 42, are living in Cranston, RI. They have four children: Harriet 19, Charles 12, Albert 4, & Henry E. 2.

In the 1860 Federal Census, Albert F. & Eliza Remington, ages 54 & 51, are still living in Cranston. Three of their children are in the household: Charles 22, Albert F. 16, & Henry A. 12.

In 1870 they are in Ward 9, Providence, RI: Albert F. is 65 and Eliza R. is 60; Henry E. is 22.

By 1880, Albert & Eliza have an empty nest. He is age 74 and an invalid; she is 71. They are living in District 53, Providence, RI.

Albert married Eliza A. Read 1 May 1828, Providence, RI. Eliza (daughter of Peter Read and Margaret Unknown) was born Between 1808 and 1810, MA; died 31 Mar 1884, RI. [Group Sheet]
