| 6701 | Susie's marriage record says she was age 21 and a resident of Grafton, MA, and born in Montreal, Canada. However, the 1880 census has her birthplace as MA. It also has her name as Susanna. Susanna was a family name; perhaps she was named after her ancestor Susannah Wheeler. In the 1871 Canadian Census, Susan is age 3, born in Quebec, Canada. | Thurston, Susie Arabella (I21885)

| 6702 | Svend was active in the Danish resistance during World War II, was captured by the Germans, and died in Neuengamme Concentration Camp . "The Neuengamme Memorial keeps only very few original documents, because the SS ordered all files to be destroyed shortly before the end of WW II. Thus there are large gaps in our knowledge about former prisoners. We do keep, though, some information about your relative in our archives. ". . . his date of death (25.02.1945) and the place (Bad Sassendorf/Soest), where he died. You also can find this information on our website about the Register of Deaths 1940-1945 (http://www.kz-gedenkstaette-neuengamme.de/en/history/death-register/deaths-1940-1945/ ). He worked in Bad Sassendorf as 11th SS Railway Construction Brigade. You can read here more about it ( http://www.kz-gedenkstaette-neuengamme.de/en/history/satellite-camps/satellite-camps/bad-sassendorf-11-ss-eisenbahnbaubrigade/ ). Maybe the archives in Soest has more information about Svend Nikolajsen ( stadtarchiv@soest.de)." From Wikipedia: "The Neuengamme concentration camp was a German concentration camp, established in 1938 by the SS near the village of Neuengamme in the Bergedorf district of Hamburg, Germany. It was operated by the SS from 1938 to 1945. Over that period an estimated 106,000 prisoners were held at Neuengamme and at its subcamps; 14,000 perished in the main camp, 12,800 in the subcamps and 16,100 during the last weeks of the war on evacuation marches or due to bombing. The verified death toll is 42,900. After Germany's defeat in 1945, the British Army used the site until 1948 as an internment camp. In 1948, the facility was transferred to the Hamburg prison authority which tore down the camp huts and built a new prison cell block. After being operated as two prisons by the Hamburg authorities from 1950 to 2004, and a period of uncertainty, the site now serves as a memorial. It is situated 15 km southeast of the centre of Hamburg." Last place of residence in DK was Kobenhavn. | Nikolaisen, Svend (I06619)

|
| 6709 | Sylvester is mentioned in the 1807 will of William Willcox of SK. According to the will, Sylvester is son of Robert, William's brother. Sylvester was a Revolutionary War soldier. Here is a summary from his Revolutionary War Pension File: On 3 Sep 1832 he personally appeared before the Court of Common Pleas in South Kingstown, Washington County; at that time he said he was age 73 and a resident of Exeter. He testified that he had served a little over two years in the Revolution [although not continuously]. He first joined early in Dec 1776. When the British fleet came there was an alarm and he was called up as a militiaman to guard the shore and quartered at Richard Gardiner's house. After that each half of the soldiers served during alternate months up until 1780. He was quartered part of the time at Robert Knowles' and part of the time at Silas Gardner's in Boston Neck and Benjamin Gardner's near the north ferry. He was on the island of Rhode Island [meaning Aquidneck Island] in Gen Sullivan's Expedition. After the British left he served two months on the island of Rhode Island part at Tomony Hill Fort [?] and part at Brenton's Neck. He served a total of two years and two months military service. He never had any written discharge; he has no record of his age. He was born in the town of Richmond, and has been living in South Kingstown since the war, until the spring of 1831 when he moved into Exeter where he now lives. (Rev War Pension File #S17797 Sylvester Willcox) Sylvester Willcox is listed as a military pensioner age 84 in the Federal Census of 1840 at South Kingstown. | Wilcox, Sylvester (I26967)
|
| 6710 | Sylvester is the grandfather of Richard Allen Brownell, who provided much of the data on this family line. | Drake, Sylvester Abel (I15924)
|
| 6711 | Sylvester Johnson was engaged to Mercy. However, he and Mercy quarreled and they never married. Allen was her son by Sylvester. (source: RI Genealogical Register, Vol 8 No 1, page 11, in an article entitled "Descendants of Edward Kettle.") | Kettelle, Mercy (I19619)
|
| 6712 | Sylvester was mentioned as "of Boston" in the 1753 will of his brother-in-law James MacSparren. | Gardiner, Sylvester (I05277)
|
| 6713 | T. Elliot Remington took over as president of the Remington's Dairy, the family business. At one time he delivered milk with horse and wagon. The Remington's All-Star Dairy, for many years located at 76 Hope Ave., Hope (Scituate), RI, was founded in 1875, when Ulysses Grant was President of the United States. Elliot & Lillian also started Remington's Ice Cream Bar & Restaurant, which was in operation from 1938 to 1956. The building is now occupied by other businesses. (Information on the Remington's Dairy was obtained from several newspaper articles on file at the North Scituate Library.) T. Elliot Remington was also the Scituate Republican Town Moderator. The Brayton Family History says he was born in 1909, but the RI Cemetery Database and other sources say 1902. His wife was born in 1900. | Remington, Thomas Elliot (I05129)

| 6723 | The "George Aldrich Genealogy" p. 180 gives Hannah's date of birth as 11 June 1782. Genealogy of the Gillson and Jillson Family p 31 says Hannah was d/o Benjamin Remington. The writer may have mistaken Benedict for Benjamin. | Remington, Hannah (I05555)
|

|
| 6728 | The 1800 Federal Census lists Josiah & Sinecer Rimmington at Cambridge, Washington Co., NY. The 1810 Federal Census for Cambridge, Washington Co., NY, has three Remington families or heads of families: Jabez, Josiah, & Severa. In the 1830 Federal Census, both Seneca and Seneca, Jr., are residing at Hinsdale, Berkshire County, MA. In 1850 Seneca & Mary are living at Compton, Kane Co., IL, with son (I assume) Philetus and his family. Also in the household are Huldah and Mary Remington, 45 and 47. These may be adult daughters of Seneca, and sisters of Philetus. The family had ties to PA, because the two youngest daughters seem to have lived in PA for at least part of their marriages. | Remington, Seneca Sr. (I08346)
|
| 6729 | The 1810 Federal Census for Cambridge, Washington Co., NY, has three Remington families or heads of families: Jabez, Josiah, & Severa (possibly Seneca?). Perhaps Jabez is Jabal. His age in the census is 26-44, and he is listed next to Josiah, age 45+. DAR files have his dob as 4 May 1780. Jabel Remington is buried in Old Mt. Ida Cemetery, Troy, Rensselaer Co., NY: b c1779-14 July 1845. Is this the same individual? | Remington, Jabal (I08644)
|
| 6730 | The 1810 Federal Census lists a John Remington at Litchfield, Herkimer Co., NY. | Remington, John Jr. (I08441)
|
| 6731 | The 1830 Federal Census at Bolivar, Allegany Co., NY, lists the following Wightmans: Simon, Aaron, E.H. The 1840 Federal Census at Wirt, Allegany Co., NY, list the following Wightmans: A., E.H., S., & L. In the Federal Census of 1850 at Wirt, Allegany Co., NY, Simon (Simeon) Wightman is 66 CT and Catherine is 64 NY. With them is Maria Wightman 37 NY, presumably a daughter; also Samuel Cusses 8 NY and Caroline D. Cusses 4 MI. In 1825, Simon Wightman was an Overseer of the Poor at Bolivar, appointed by the Town Council. The following is excerpted from "Allegany County and its people: a centennial memorial history of Allegany County, New York" (Alfred, N.Y.: W.A. Fergusson & Co., 1896) p 865: "Simon Wightman came from Skaneateles, Onondaga Co., to this county about 1812, and took up a lot of 150 acres, whose timber he felled and hewed, made his house of logs, and raised a small crop for present sustenance. He married Catherine Allen. They had 10 children of whom 3 survive: William of Turtle Point, PA; Morton, and Simon. Morton was born Oct 11, 1824, married in 1850, Calista, daughter of Rev. I. Knapp of Wirt and Sally Stanton his wife. His children living are Mark A. and Luther L. Simon Wightman, son of Simon and Catherine (Allen) Wightman, born March 6, 1827, married Melissa S. Gilbert, Sept 25, 1853. Their children are Rosa E., Frank M. and Bennie A. Simon Wightman Sr. and his wife Catherine were among the constituent members of the Baptist Church of Richburg, organized in 1828." The following notes are from this source: "History of Allegany County, N.Y.: with illustrations descriptive of scenery, private residences, public buildings, fine blocks, and important manufactories, from original sketches by artists of the highest ability, and portraits of old pioneers and prominent residents" (New York: F.W. Beers, 1879) p 381: The First-Day Baptist Church of Richburg was set off from the Baptist Church of Friendship and constituted as a church 29 Feb 1828. Among its founding members were the following Wightmans: Simon, Catherine, Roona (Roomy?), Rhoda, & Edward. Also, on its list of deacons or clerks is E. H. Wightman. | Wightman, Simon (I23428)
|
| 6732 | The 1840 Federal Census at Troy (Fall River), Bristol Co., MA, has a listing for Joshua Elsbree. This may be our ancestor, although the age may be a bit off; I have estimated both his birth year and death year. The household in 1840 consists of: 1 M 15<20, 1 M 20<30, 1 M 50<60, 1 F 15<20, and 1 F 50<60. Joshua is listed next to Ephraim Boomer. However, "The Luther Genealogy" p. 279 says Joshua died/was bur 7 May 1839. This appears to be confirmed by his gravestone in North Burial Ground, Fall River. | ELSBREE, Joshua (I18640)
|
| 6733 | The 1850 census at North Kingstown shows Fones Austin 38, Betsey B. 35, and George Russell 5 months. Note from Shirley M. Greene: "He worked 11 years in a cotton mill and several years on the railroad. My father-in-law told us that every fall he would set his grass afire along the tracks, blame the railroad, and collect enough money to pay his taxes every year." Fones Austin (under 21) is mentioned as s/o Russell Austin in the 1817 will of Daniel Fones. Daniel was the uncle of Catherine (Essex) Austin. | Austin, Fones (I00666)
|
| 6734 | The 1850 census gives her name as Mary N. Remington, but perhaps the census taker heard wrong. The RI Cemetery Database has her name as Harriet, d/o Daniel & Betsey (Briggs) Remington. | Remington, Harriet (I11129)
|
| 6735 | The 1850 Federal Census at Tiverton, RI, shows Holder Dennis, age 34, a sailor, living with Betsey Dennis 30 and son Edward M., age 4. The family is living right near Betsey's parents, Philip & Abby Manchester, and some of their children. The 1860 Federal Census at Tiverton shows Holder Dennis, farm laborer age 44, living with Lydia A. Dennis 35 or 38, Edward M. 13, Abby S. 10, Daniel 5, and Nathaniel 1. These two are obviously the same individual. Holder's first wife, Betsey Manchester, died in 1857, after which he must have married Lydia. In 1870 Holder is age 53 and Lydia A. is age 40, still living at Tiverton, RI Three children are in the household: Nathaniel 11, Frank 7, & James 5. In 1880 Holder & Lydia A. Dennis, ages 62 & 50, are still at Tiverton. In the household are their son James H. age 14, and Holder's brother Bradford C. Dennis, age "about 55." In 1900 Holder is age 84, living in Little Compton with son Frank and family. | Dennis, Holder (I00929)
|
| 6736 | The 1850 Federal Census lists a David Knap 19 RI living in Cranston, RI, with the family of Samuel Larkin. He is a laborer. He may be the David Knapp age 22 who enlisted in the army 1 March 1852. It says he was born in Johnston, is a farmer, and is 5 ft. 6 inches tall with a ruddy complexion, blue eyes, and brown hair. In the 1860 Federal Census, the David and family are living at Montville, New London Co., CT. They are with Daniel Abel and family. In 1870 they are at Chaplin, Windham Co., CT. In 1880 they are at Hartland, Hartford Co., CT. | Knapp, David (I23660)
|
| 6737 | The 1860 census has his name as William D. Dedrick. William & Luvana are living at New Bedford, MA, in the 1880 US Census, with her father Elisha. | Dedrick, William H. (I06501)
|
| 6738 | The 1860 Federal Census has a notation that Harriet was an invalid. | Remington, Harriet (I11247)
|
| 6739 | The 1860 Federal Census has her name as Cara B. Chafee, 5 months. Also, the birth record at Bristol has her name as Carry B. Chafee, b 31 Jan 1860, and says she is the second child (?) born to George & Susan. Perhaps they changed her name to Ida (?). (see Bristol Book 2, p. 30) In the 1870 Federal Census she is Ida B., age 10. | Chafee, Ida Versey (I00251)
|
| 6740 | The 1860 Portsmouth, RI Census lists Richmond Carr, age 80, a farmer, living with Elizabeth Carr, age 40. See his will (Po Wills Vol V p. 490), which mentions sons Job R., charles, & William, and daughters Elizabeth, Mary, Ruth Hannah, Susan, & Sarah Ann. | Carr, Richmond (I03582)
|
| 6741 | The 1860 Tiverton Census shows a Philip Manchester, farmer age 65, living with Holder W. Manchester 19, and Cynthia Manchester 27. Next door is Benjamin Manchester 60, living with Ruth, Lydia, and Clarinda Manchester -- 14, 18, and 19. | Manchester, Philip Jr. (I00965)
|
| 6742 | The 1870 Federal Census lists an Anna Remington, age 53, b. NY, at Ellisburgh, Jefferson Co., NY. Could this be Anna, now widowed? | Wheeler, Anna P. (I09630)
|
| 6743 | The 1880 Federal Census at "familysearch" does not identify her as the daughter of William & Ada, although she is living with them at Providence. The birth locations of her parents agree with theirs, however. | Remington, Josephine Lydia (I11016)
|
| 6744 | The 1880 Federal Census at Lee, Calhoun, MI, identifies him as Nichols R. Turner, age 40, b. NY, a cooper; it says his father was born in NY and his mother in RI. | Turner, Joseph Nichols R. (I07325)
|
| 6745 | The 1880 Federal Census at New Bedford, MA, shows this family group: Jonathan Howland, retired Master Mariner age 87; Jonathan Howland, retired Master Mariner age 45; Caroline T. Howland -- keeping house at age 47; Sarah E. Howland 25, at home; Sylvia G. Crow 65 (sister-in-law of Jonathan Sr.?); and Anne McGarrgle and Mary Regan, chambermaid and cook. | Howland, Jonathan Jr. (I09948)
|
| 6746 | The 1880 Federal Census gives his age as 40, which would make his year of birth as 1840. It may just be an estimated age on the census. The family is at Providence with Matilda, age 1. | Turner, Charles Edwin (I00357)
|
| 6747 | The 1880 Federal Census has his middle initial as "G." He and Patience are living at Coventry, RI; Lauriston is 27 and Patience is 16. | Battey, Lauriston W. (I04974)
|
| 6748 | The 1880 Federal Census has his name as William, but a family tree at Rootsweb's Worldconnect has it as Emory. The census taker may have mistaken the name. | Davenport, William Emory (I10182)
|
| 6749 | The 1880 Federal Census says he was born in "Indian Territory." In the Federal Census of 1900, the family is living at Windsor, Hartford Co., CT. Wolcott is a machinist. Wolcott Remington age 33 y is on the passenger list of a ship coming from Naples, Italy, to Ellis Island on 1 Nov 1907. In the Federal Census of 1910, Wolcot & Evelyn G. Remington, ages 43 OK & 32 CT, are at Stamford, Fairfield Co., CT. Their sons are Philip R. 12 MA and Roger W. 5 CT. Wolcott is president of Oil Engine Co. One newspaper note likewise identified Wolcott Remignton as the president of Remington Oil Engine Co. He also was associated with the International Power Vehicle Co. of Stamford, CT, from which he patented an ignition device. The history of Newburgh, NY, contains a picture of students and faculty of Newburgh Academy and lists a Wolcott Remington. (source: Google Books) In the Federal Census of 1920, the family is living at Swampscott, Essex Co., MA: Wolcott 45, Evelyn 43, Philip 22, and Roger 14. | Remington, Wolcott (I12695)
|
| 6750 | The 1880 Federal Census says he was born in "Indian Territory." The 1920 Federal Census says Oklahoma, which by then had become a state. In 1920, Philip is age 43 and widowed. He has followed in his father's footsteps as a captain in the US military, and is stationed at Camp Gaillard, Panama Canal Zone. His four children and sister-in-law are there, also. Apparently he later married her, because in the 1930 Federal Census at Windsor, Hartford Co., CT, she appears as his wife. Major Philip Remington, s/o late Col. Philip H. Remington, of Hartford, CT, is reported as wounded at age 42 (New York Times 5 Nov 1918). The following may be about this particular Philip Remington (needs to be confirmed): REMINGTON, PHILIP Second Lieutenant, U.S. Army 22d Infantry Date of Action: October 22, 1905 Citation: The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Philip Remington, Second Lieutenant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action at Malala River, Mindanao, Philippine Islands, October 22, 1905. While commanding the leading troop of the advance guard of an expedition against Dato Ali, upon locating Ali's cotta, which was occupied by hostile Moros, Lieutenant Remington courageously dashed forward, leading his men, and engaged the enemy at point-blank range. In a pistol and rifle duel he succeeded in killing Ali with his pistol, but not until one of Lieutenant Remington's own men had been killed by rifle fire from Ali. He then disposed his command, which in a brisk fire fight killed the remaining members of the band of Moros. General Orders No. No. 4, W.D., 1923 Home Town: Windsor, CT | Remington, Philip (I12696)
