  1. 4.  Joseph Martin Remington was born 16 Feb 1822, Sennett, Cayuga Co., NY (son of Mills Remington and Maria Warner); died Aft 1 Jun 1880.

    Notes:

    In 1850 the family is living in Sennett, Cayuga Co., NY: Joseph M. Remington 28, Mary 27, Amelia 6, and Edward 4, all b NY. Also in the home is James Barber, 22 Ireland.

    In the Illinois State Census of 1865, Joseph M. Remington is listed as head of household in Fairfield, Bureau Co., IL.

    In 1870, the family is at Fairfield, Bureau Co., IL; the two younger children, Maria and Joseph, are in the home.

    In 1880, the family is still at Fairfield: Joseph 58 NY, Mariah (mother) 82 NY, Mary E. (wife) 56 NY, and Joseph (son) 21 IL.

    Joseph married Mary Edmunds Abt 1843. Mary (daughter of Joseph Edmunds and Susanna Chapman) was born Abt 1823, NY; died Aft 1 Jun 1880. [Group Sheet]


  2. 5.  Mary Edmunds was born Abt 1823, NY (daughter of Joseph Edmunds and Susanna Chapman); died Aft 1 Jun 1880.

    Notes:

    I am guessing she is daughter of Joseph and Susanna Edmunds -- pieced together from census records and burial information.

    I am making an assumption that Mary is sister of Sylvia Edmunds who married Philander Remington. I conjecture they may be daughters of Joseph and Susanna Edmunds. I am going to make an educated guess that they are in this family group, based on census data from 1840 showing a free white female age 15-19 and and other age 20-29. The youngest girl age 10-14 would be Martha, with them in 1850.

    See data below about other family members.

    In the DETROIT SOCIETY FOR GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH MAGAZINE (date unknown), on p. 88 the following appears: "PRIVATE CEMETERY ON JOSEPH REMINGTON FARM, east and north of Sennett, in Brutus township, Cayuga County, New York.

    Notes:

    This family lived in Brutus, Cayuga Co., NY. In the 1830 census, it appears that Mills and Maria have 5 children -- 3 daughters and 2 sons.

    Mills married Maria Warner 20 Feb 1817. Maria was born 1798, Saratoga, NY; died 7 Nov 1883; was buried , Sennett Rural Cemetery, Cayuga Co., NY. [Group Sheet]


  2. 9.  Maria Warner was born 1798, Saratoga, NY; died 7 Nov 1883; was buried , Sennett Rural Cemetery, Cayuga Co., NY.

    Notes:

    In 1860 she is Maria Remington 61, living in Brutus, Cayuga, NY, with William H. Tanner 48 and wife Sarah 42.

    She is still with them in 1865 and 1870; her birthplace is given as Saratoga.

    In the 1880 census she is Mariah Remington, mother, age 82, living in Fairfield, IL, with Joseph and family.

    Children:
    1. Sarah Ann Remington was born 20 Mar 1818, NY; died 4 Dec 1873; was buried , Old Sennett Cemetery, Cayuga Co., NY.

    Notes:

    This family is from MA, but appears in the 1820 census in Brutus, Cayuga Co., NY.

    In 1840, the household of J. Edmunds at Brutus is as follows: free white males 2 age 10-14, 1 age 15-19, 1 age 20-29, and 1 age 60-69; free white females 1 age 10-14, 1 age 15-19, 1 age 20-29, and 1 age 50-59.

    Two of the youngest children would be William and Martha; the two other young females must be Mary and Sylvia; and of course the adults are the parents.

    I don't know who the other three boys are -- they could be unknown children, grandchildren, hired help, or foster children.

    In 1850, the household is as follows: Joseph Edmunds 70 MA, Susanna 67 MA, William 22 NY, Martha 20 NY; also Erastus Griswold 19, and Martha Cresson (?) 14.

    In the DETROIT SOCIETY FOR GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH MAGAZINE (date unknown), on p. 88 the following appears: "PRIVATE CEMETERY ON JOSEPH REMINGTON FARM, east and north of Sennett, in Brutus township, Cayuga County, New York.

    From Ed Voorhees at Rootsweb's Worldconnect:
    In the Boston Transcript for 19 Mar 1928 (available in the Dallas, TX, Public Library on microcard, "Boston Transcript, 1906-1941" the following is reported: EDMUNDS, CHAPMAN, STAFFORD. Joseph Edmunds, Quaker, Cheshire Mass., born March 22, 1780, died Feb. 6, 1859, married Susie or Susanna Chapman, Presbyterian, born Nov. 19, 1782, died April 11, 1867; she may have been born in Great Barrington, Mass. Joseph was son of Edward Edmunds and Isabel Stafford, Records say that Isabel's father was officer in the Revolution.

    Joseph married Susanna Chapman 25 Mar 1802, Great Barrington, MA. Susanna (daughter of Ezra Chapman and Esther Avery) was born Abt Nov 1783; died 11 Apr 1867, Brutus, Cayuga Co., NY; was buried , Joseph Remington Farm, Brutus, Cayuga Co., NY. [Group Sheet]


  4. 11.  Susanna Chapman was born Abt Nov 1783 (daughter of Ezra Chapman and Esther Avery); died 11 Apr 1867, Brutus, Cayuga Co., NY; was buried , Joseph Remington Farm, Brutus, Cayuga Co., NY.

    Notes:

    In 1860, Susanna Edmunds is age 77, living with Philander and Sylvia Remington. I am assuming Sylvia is her daughter.
