| 1813 | From web site newenglandancestors.org: "REMINGTON, William Holdredge, ' Moved from R. I. to Pomeroy, Ohio,' h. REMINGTON, Eliphalet (d. Job Randall of Cranston, R.I. ), ch. William and Patty or Martha (Adams), b. --, 1810 [? in Pawtuxet, R.I. ], P.R.28. Greenfield," MA records (probably from Adams family Bible records). Eliphalet is likely a mistranscription of Elizabeth. In the 1850 Federal Census, William & Elizabeth are living at Pomeroy, Meigs Co., Ohio, with their five children: P. E., Anne C., Benjamin R., Martha M., & Mary H. William is a merchant. In 1860 the family is at Salisbury, Meigs Co., OH. The household includes: W. H. Remington, 50 RI, merchant; Elizabeth P., 41 RI; Ansela, 16 OH; Benjamin R., 13 OH; Martha, 11 OH; Mary, 9 OH; & Emer, 7 OH. They are still living there in 1870, and their young adult children in the household are: Benjamin, Mary, & Emma. William 60 and son Benjamin 24 are dry goods merchants; Elizabeth 57 is keeping house; Mary 19 "helps mother"; and Emma 17 is attending school. (Roll: M593_1242, Page: 165, Image: 331) In 1880 William & Elizabeth are still at Pomeroy, OH, and are ages 70 & 61. William is a retired merchant. With them is son Benjamin R., 43; it looks as if his occupation is "Hardware & stationery." As a point of interest, William was likely named after his father William, and also after Deacon William Holdridge/Holdredge, who died at Pawtuxet 5 Dec 1828 in his 86th year. | Remington, William Holdredge (I10653)

In 1988, she founded AnGeL Ministries, a nonprofit organization through which she travels and preaches worldwide. Although as a female evangelist she's encountered some resistance from conservative Christians, her popularity is such that she draws large crowds across the world, and the New York Times in 1999 considered her one of the five most influential evangelists in the United States. She is also the author of numerous books on Christianity and the Bible from an evangelical perspective. In 2000, Anne launched her Just Give Me Jesus women | Graham, Anne Morrow (I24056)

| 1817 | From Wikipedia: "Geoffrey and Matilda's marriage took place in 1128. The marriage was meant to seal a lasting peace between England, Normandy (an English possession since William I) and Anjou. She was eleven years older than Geoffrey, and very proud of her status as dowager Empress (as opposed to being a mere countess), and which she kept for the remainder of her life. Their marriage was a stormy but happy one with frequent long separations; she bore him three sons and survived him by over 15 years." | Family F07541

| 1818 | From Wikipedia: Thomas was the 11th Earl of Warwick. He served in Scotland frequently during the 1330s, being captain of the army against the Scots in 1337. He was hereditary High Sheriff of Worcestershire from 1333 until his death (in 1369). In 1344 he was also made High Sheriff of Warwickshire and Leicestershire for life. He was Marshall of England from 1343/4 until 1369, and was one of the commanders at the great English victories at Crécy and Poitiers. Thomas de Beauchamp fought in all the French wars of King Edward III; he commanded the center at the Battle of Crecy (where many of his relatives were killed including his younger half-brother Alan la Zouche de Mortimer). He was trusted to be guardian of the sixteen-year-old Black Prince. Beauchamp fought at Poitiers in 1356 and at the Siege of Calais (1346). Thomas and Katherine had five sons and ten daughters. He died of the black death three months after his wife died. From the website of Warwick Castle: "Thomas Beauchamp (1329-69), who next inherited the Earldom, came of age around the time of the outbreak of the Hundred Years War with France. In 1337 King Edward III restated his claim to the French throne and the long conflict began. Thomas emerged as one of the King’s favoured commanders. He fought at the Battle of Crecy (1346) and the Battle of Poitiers (1356), and was amongst the first men to be made a Knight of the Garter. Thomas made his fortunes in France ransoming French political prisoners and he started a massive reconstruction of Warwick Castle. He began the building of the towers which still stand today." https://www.warwick-castle.com/explore/castle/history/ | BEAUCHAMP, Earl of Warwick Thomas (I19832)
|
| 1819 | From Wikipedia: "Dudo of Saint-Quentin in his panegyric of the Norman dukes describes Poppa as the daughter of a Count Beranger, the dominant prince of that region. In the 11th century Annales Rouennaises (Annals of Rouen), she is called the daughter of Guy, Count of Senlis, otherwise unknown to history. Despite the uncertainty of her parentage she was undoubtedly a member of the Frankish aristocracy. According to the Longsword's planctus, he was baptized a Christian probably at the same time as his father, which Orderic Vitalis stated was in 912, by Franco, Archbishop of Rouen." | BAYEUX, Poppa of (I28070)
|
| 1820 | From Wikipedia: "Sprota was the name of a Breton captive who William I, Duke of Normandy took as a wife in the Viking fashion (more danico) and by her had a son, Richard I, Duke of Normandy. After the death of her husband William, she became the wife of Esperleng and mother of Rodulf of Ivry." "The phrase more danico is a Medieval Latin legal expression which may be translated as 'in the Danish manner' or 'by Norse customary law.' It designates a type of traditional marriage practiced in northern Europe during the Middle Ages." "By tradition and customary law, the children of such a relationship were in no way considered of lesser rank or disadvantaged with respect to inheritance. Many sons more danico went on to become dukes or kings by succession or conquest." Read more about Sprota at Wikipedia. | UNKNOWN, Sprota (I28071)
|
| 1821 | From Wikipedia: He was known as "Richard the Good." "Richard attempted to improve relations with England through his sister Emma of Normandy's marriage to King Ethelred. This marriage was significant in that it later gave his grandson, William the Conqueror, the basis of his claim to the throne of England. The improved relations proved to be beneficial to Ethelred when in 1013 Sweyn Forkbeard invaded England. Emma with her two sons Edward and Alfred fled to Normandy followed shortly thereafter by her husband king Ethelred. Soon after the death of Ethelred, Cnut, King of England, forced Emma to marry him while Richard was forced to recognize the new regime as his sister was again Queen. Richard had contacts with Scandinavian Vikings throughout his reign. He employed Viking mercenaries and concluded a treaty with Sweyn Forkbeard who was en route to England." | NORMANDY, Richard II of (I28065)

| 1822 | From Wikipedia: Richard Weston, 1st Earl of Portland, KG (1 March 1577 - 13 March 1634/1635), was Chancellor of the Exchequer and later Lord Treasurer of England under James I and Charles I, being one of the most influential figures in the early years of Charles I's personal rule and the architect of many of the policies that enabled him to rule without raising taxes through Parliament. Sir Richard Weston was knighted by King James I on 23 July 1603, raised to the peerage by King Charles I on 13 Apr 1628, as Baron Weston of Neyland. He was also appointed Lord High Treasurer on 23 July 1628, and declared the first Earl of Portland on 17 Feb 1632/3. His nephew (his sister's son), Jeremy Clarke, became a Governor of Rhode Island in the American colonies. | Weston, Richard (I02820)

| 1823 | From: "Proceedings of the New York State Historical Association, the Twenty-Second Annual Meeting" Vol XX, published by the New York State Historical Association, 1922. Ida Remington Squire died on February 28, 1921. Mrs. Squire was a daughter of Philo and Caroline Remington. She was born November 20, 1842, in the old Remington house in Ilion. On December 23, 1868, she was married to Watson Carvosso Squire. Her husband was manager of the Remington Arms Company from 1866 to 1879, when they moved to Seattle. He was governor of Washington Territory 1884-1887, and afterwards United States senator from Washington for two terms. The last years of her life she lived in Ilion in the mansion built by her father on Armory Hill, in which she died and from which she was borne to her grave in Armory Hill Cemetery. Her husband, two daughters, and two sons, survive her. She was one of the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Daughters of 1812; a member of the Women's Foreign Home Missionary Societies af the Methodist Church and the Women's Christian Temperance Union. Her beneficent activities wer not confined to the societies and church in which she held membership.

| 1827 | GARDINER Abigail, wife of William, of Boston Neck, bapt. at her sister Mumford's in Groton, CT, Nov. 2, 1731 The will of Abigail Almy, maiden name Remington, widow of Job Almy and previously widow of William Gardiner, was written 3 Apr 1762, and proved 11 Apr 1763 at South Kingstown, RI. The will was witnessed by Mary Chappell, Robert Stoddard, & Francis Willett. Abigail was the mother of Hannah (Gardiner) MacSparran, wife of Rev. James. (source note: RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 2, No. 3, p. 157) The will mentions sons John & Sylvester Gardner, daughter Abigail Robinson, and the following grandchildren: Josiah Arnold, Anstis Robinson, Abigail Updike, Abigail Stewart, & Mary Dockray. The date of 6 Mar 1763 is given for Abigail's death in some genealogies, but according to Jane Fletcher Fiske in "The Abigail Connection," that date of death belongs to another Abigail who married John Carr. | Remington, Abigail (I02883)
|
| 1828 | GARDINER Job of South Kingstown and Asa Franklin, of George, of Jamestown, Feb. 5, 1785. I have made an assumption that Asa in this marriage record is Asanath. | Family F06852
|
| 1829 | Gardner and Amey are twins. Gardner Hambly is listed as a crew member on the brig "Almy" departing Westport on 10/5/1821: age - 23, height - 5'7", skin color - dark, residence - Tiverton. He may have had an earlier marriage c. 1823 or so, prior to his marriage to Eliza Durfee. His father's will refers to two grandsons, Edwin & Humphry Hambly, but does not say whose sons they are. These two would have been born before 16 January 1827. Gardner and his wife Martha are in the 1850 Federal Census at Tiverton, with two children, John & Susan. | Hambly, Gardner (I00770)
|
| 1830 | Gardner Manchester is listed at Tiverton in the 1820 census. | Manchester, Gardner (I00935)
|
| 1831 | Genealogist Martha A. Benns has linked James to his father Thomas, of Warwick, and this marriage in Coventry to the same family group. I am making the assumption that she is right. | Family F01526
|
| 1832 | Genealogist Martha A. Benns has linked John to his father Thomas, of Warwick, and this marriage in Coventry to the same family group. I am making the assumption that she is right. This makes sense because Thomas received land in Coventry from his father Thomas, in his will. | Family F01525
|
| 1833 | Genealogy of the Gillson and Jillson Family p 31 identifies William as a son of Joab Aldrich & Hannah Jillson. (Google Books) In the 1840 Federal Census, the family appears to be in Mendon, MA. William died in Mendon at age 68 y 2 mo 27 d; cause of death, consumption. | Aldrich, William (I05726)
|
| 1834 | General Notes: Charles (2) Dyer was of Newport, RI, Dartmouth, Ma, and Providence, RI. He purchased, in 1718, a house and one hundred thirteen acres of land in Providence, also several other parcels of land. In 1735, land was deeded by his widow to his son, John Dyer, sixty acres and dwelling house, in Anshautatuck Neck. Charles Dyer was a blacksmith by trade. [Cutter] On 25 July 1712, John Scott of Newport, for L600 current money, deeded to Charles "Dyere" of Dartmouth, in the County of Bristol & Province of Massachusetts, Blacksmith, a mansion house and 113 acres, and several small parcels of land in Providence. (Richard Scott of Providence, RI; NEHGR, Vol.96, Jan 1942, page 11) (source: Dyer web site at "freepages" [http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~dyer/will_ri/d1.htm#i2270]. | Dyer, Charles (I12048)
|
| 1835 | Geoffrey was of the House of Plantagenet in Anjou, France. The name Plantagenet was given as a nickname to Geoffrey because of the sprig of the broom plant (planta genista) he wore in his helmet. This was later incorporated into the family coat of arms. | Anjou, Earl Geoffrey PLANTAGENET of (I19858)

| 1839 | George & Eliza are living at Suffield, Hartford Co., CT, in the 1870 and 1880 Federal Censuses. Note from Randall W. Cooper: "George Remington was a longtime member of Second Baptist Church in Suffield, Connecticut . . . In 1850, he was enumerated in the Census of Suffield, Connecticut, living near Reverend Dwight Ives, the pastor of Second Baptist Church." | Remington, George (I08310)

(source: Lois Remington Smith) In the 1880 Federal Census, George & Henry are farmers in Indianola, Red Willow, NE. Their mother Elizabeth, a widow age 56, is living there with them. From "Berkshire Co., Mass., Probate Index, 1761 to 1900" page 243: George A. Remington, Savoy, Gdn. m., July 26, 1865, #9956. | Remington, George Austin (I11344)

| 1844 | George and Rebecca, his second wife, had four known children. | Armington, George (I12770)
|
| 1845 | George came to America sometime between 1653 and 1663. His older brother, Valentine, was already here in Providence, where his first child was born in 1653. Their grandfather Edward had been burned at the stake in England for his faith, so they came here for religious freedom, as many RI families did. The area called Quidnessett was defined in 1659 by agreement with Indian sachem Kachanaquant; its boundaries were the Potomomut River (now Hunt's River) on the north, the Indian road or Pequot Path (now Post Road) on the west, Richard Smith's land (Wickford area) on the south, and Narragansett Bay on the east, totalling about 6x3 miles. In 1660 the Atherton Company, a group of land speculators from MA Bay Colony and CT, was ordered by the Assembly to open up the Quidnessett tract to purchase by private individuals. Valentine Wightman, George's brother, procured an area of 100-plus acres bordering the bay. This land soon became the property of his brother George, and was handed down intact through 6 generations and known for over 200 years as the Wightman homestead in Quidnessett. George later acquired more land, totalling about 2000 acres. For a fascinating history of the Wightman family, see: http://www.concentric.net/~Ssbray/wightman.htm | Wightman, George (I05829)

|
| 1850 | George L. Nottage and John Bezeley both witnessed a will in Cranston in 1848, for a singlewoman named Huldah Rose. In the Federal Census of 1850, the family is living in Cranston: George L. Nottage 58 MA tin plate worker, Sarah L. 59 MA, Edward W. 30 MA tin plate worker, John S. 24 CT carpenter, Olive B. Tilden 22 RI, Francis P. Tilden 24 MA hatter, George N. Simmons 20 RI painter, Mary E. Simmons 19 RI, Charles H. Nottage 17 RI store clerk, Dorcas S. Nottage 29 RI, George E. Nottage 6 RI, Susan A. Nottage 4 RI, and Charity M. Nottage 2 RI. The family is living next to the family of George W. Ellis, and near the family of John & Celia Beazely. In 1860 the Nottage family is living at Knightsville, Cranston, Providence Co., RI. I have made an assumption that John S. is their son because he is living next door with his own family. It is possible that a daughter, Sarah L. Beazely age 21, is living in the household with her husband. Or, Sarah's husband may be the son of Almira, George's second wife. In 1870 George L. & Almira Nottage are living at Providence, RI. Sarah L. Johnston, 29, is in the household. According to a genealogy from Rosemarie Mello, the Nottage family are descendants of many famous personages among European royalty. | Nottage, George Longley Sr. (I15995)
