In the Providence Gazette, Deaths, of 14 Nov 1820: "Mrs. Mary Congdon, wife of Capt. Peleg, only daughter of Hon. Henry Remington, at Warwick, in 29th year, suddenly."

5507 Mary was killed by strangling in her apartment (source: Newport Daily News, 3 Sep 1954). I obtained her maiden name from her son's marriage record. Bartlett, Mary J. (I22124)
 
5508 Mary was known as Polly.

From Cranston Land Evidence 7-19, dated 25 Sept 1802: Charles Remington of Cranston, mariner, sold property to James Rhodes, merchant, for $750. The transaction included "one lot of land in Cranston in part called Pawtuxet." It was "bounded westerly on Main St., northerly by land of Remington Sheldon, and southerly on said Sheldon." This was sold "together with dwelling house -- barn & buildings -- was purchased by me of Rhodes Greene in April 1786" (should be 1796 -- note by Mary E. Rice) . . . "I, the said Polly Remington, wife of said Charles Remington, releases dower." (sic) This was signed by Charles Remington & Mary Remington, and witnessed by John A. Aborn & Patience Smith.

Again, on 4 Dec 1805, a Cranston deed includes the following: "I, Mary or Polly Remington, wife of the above named Charles Remington, releases dower." It was signed by Charles and Polly Remington.

From the records of the First Baptist Church of Providence, RI: Mrs. Mary Remington (date of membership or baptism?) Not known Nov. 16, 1806, L (letter?) to Pawtuxet church. W. of Charles.

Notes from the Mary E. Rice Collection, concerning Cranston Land Evidence, deed bk #1 pp. 584 & 585, dated 17 Oct 1825: Mary C. Remington, widow of Charles, deceased late of said Cranston, mariner, and William Henry Aborn of Providence, merchant, and his wife Harriot Angeline Aborn . . . " The content concerned the release of all debts pertaining to the estate of Charles, also a release to Samuel Aborn Condy and wife Maria Frances. (Maria & Harriet were sisters, and daughters of Charles & Mary)

The announcement of her death said she died "after 4 yrs. 6 mos. suffering."

Her gravestone has this saying: [she died] "after 4 years and 6 months of suffering which she endured with calm resignation and solid hope of Heaven."

The 2003 supplement to the book "Descendants of Roger Williams, Waterman and Winsor Lines" has her date of birth as 6 November 1776. Depending on whether she was born in 1770 or 1776, determines which of Stephen's wives was her mother. She did have a granddaughter named Phebe, but whether this is a clue that her mother was Phebe is debatable.

The "History of Fall River," p. 10, has Matthew Boomer as the first settler, in 1676. According to this book, the Freeman's Purchase was the first land purchased from the natives in the Fall River area. The deed, dated 2 Apr 1659, was signed by Wamsutta & Weetamoe. It included most of what is now Fall River and Freetown. There were 26 purchasers. "Matthew Boomer was probably the first settler in this tract, having bought a part of the fourth lot in March 1676, and erected a dwelling near the corner of North Main and Brownell streets soon after."

The following notes are from [ http://www.harrold.org/familytree/webtree2/145.htm ]:

The following is from "Additions and Corrections to Austin's Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island Matthew Boomer," published in the American Genealogist, April, 1984.
- Before court (servant of Edmond Nedum/Needham in Lynn, MA) 5/9/1647 and 12/26/1649 for striking his master with a pitchfork and lying - author cites Records and Files of the Quarterly Courts of Essex Co, MA; Salem 1911; 1:133, 184.
- Moved to Newport RI by 1655. Appears in list of Freemen of Newport - author cites John R. Bartlett, Records of the Colony of RI and Providence Plantations in New England; Providence RI 1856 rpt. New York 1968; 1:300.
- House burned by Indians during the late war. On 2/26/1676 Henry Stevens stated that he sold the 10 acres to Matthew Boomer about 18 years ago - author cites RI Land Evidences (RILE), Volume 1, 1648-1696; Providence RI 1921, rpt Baltimore 1970; pp. 95, 96 - probably burnt after he moved to MA.
- Sold the 10 acres to George Browne of Newport on 2/26/1676.
- Frequently in RI and Plymouth Colony courts as member of Petty Jury on 10/24/1666, but usually as a defendant - author cites RI Court Records: Records of the Court of Trials of the Colony of Providence Plantations, 1662-1670 2 vols.; Providence, 1922.
- Was sued by Nicholas Easton for damages 10/21/1668, charged with committing a riot.
- Wife charged with committing a felony.
- Jury found not guilty in all cases.
- He seems to have moved back to MA by 1675; a record in New Plymouth states, on 6/1/1675 "John Arthur, Mathew Boomer and John Leyton being sumoned to the court to answare for theire residing in the govment without order, and not attending the publicke worship of God, liveing lonely and in a heathenish way from good societie, this Court ordereth that they for the future shall frequent the publicke worship of [God], and live otherwise orderly, or that they depart the govment." (Nathaniel B. Shurtleff, Records of the Colony of New Plymouth in New England, [Boston 1856, rpt. New York 1968].
- On 3/6/1676/7 Henry Brightman of Portsmouth sold one half of a lot lying on the east side of "Tanton River in the collony of New-Plymouth" to Matthew Boomer of Newport. Matthew sold the half lot to John Reade of Newport on 6/22/1677 - author cites RILE, pp. 121-122.
- Matthew and his son Matthew are on the 10/17/1688 tax list for Freetown, MA. The 6/25/1690 list gives only one Matthew Boomer - author cites Richard L. Bowen, Early Rehoboth , Rehoboth MA 1945, 1:86-88.
- On 1/5/1692, ack. 11/20/1694, "Matthew Bommer Sr. of Freetown sold to Matthew Bommer Jr. of Freetown one freeman's lot in Freetown where said Matthew Bommer Junr. now dweleth" - Bristol Co. LR 1:301. LDS gives father as Joshua, of Essex, born about 1578, married about 1609 in Essex. LDS shows Matthew's marriage and death in MA - could be right. Matthew moved from Lynn, MA to Newport, RI, then to Freetown, MA.
