7101 The Rhode Island Cemetery Database has her date of death as 15 May 1888. Gorton, Mary (I03152)
 
7102 The Rhode Island Cemetery Database says he was born c.1745.

The will of William Rice, of Warwick, far advanced in life, yeoman, mentions his wife Maplet Rice; son Jeffrey Amhurst Rice, dec'd; daughter Sally Remington w/o James Remington; granddaughters Roby Munroe w/o John Munroe, Abby Ann Rice, Barbara Rice, Phebe Rice, & Sarah Rice; grandsons Joseph & Sylvester Rice; grandson William Rice s/o Jeffrey Amhurst Rice, dec'd; grandson William Rice Remington s/o James Remington (rec'd land in will; codicil states he died w/o issue and land given to grandsons Thomas, Henry, & Jonathan Remington, sons of James E. Remington). 
Rice, William (I02811)
 
7103 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. 
Remington, Albert F. Sr. (I14663)
 
7104 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. Remington is age 34, still married to Lucy F. and living in District 51, Providence, RI, with their three young children. His son by the first marriage, Ferdinand, is living with Albert's sister, Harriet A. Brightman, and family. 
Remington, Albert F. Jr. (I14683)
 
7105 The Rhode Island Republican Party nominated Seth Padelford for governor in 1860 -- a man whose antislavery views were extreme. However, he was defeated by Democrat William Sprague of Cranston, the heir to a vast cotton textile empire. The Democratic Party was more "soft on slavery." (see RI history web site: http://www.rilin.state.ri.us/studteaguide/RhodeIslandHistory/chapt5.htm)

He was successful in a later run for office. Seth was Governor of Rhode Island from 1869 to 1873. He was RIs 27th governor.

He was an active Unitarian.

His obituary mentions his wife as Mary, and that he had three daughters and one son.

His funeral was 30 Aug 1878 at 17 Benevolent St., Providence, RI. Here is an excerpt from the account of the funeral published in the Providence Journal of 31 Aug 1878: "He was a most persistant man always at his work, and, when the work of his business was over, always ready for the work of good neighborhood, of Christian philanthropy and Christian faith . . . he always appeared to be a loyal pupil in the old Puritan spirit in which he was educated. For him human life was made for a purpose and his personal life was made for a purpose. He felt that he was called with a calling of God . . . The flag at the State House floated at half-mast yesterday, and the portrait of Gov. Padelford on the State House walls was draped in mourning as tributes of respect."

Seth's parents were John & Mary (Heath) Padelford.

A picture of Seth and of his gravesite can be found at findagrave.com. 
Padelford, Gov. Seth (I09726)
 
7106 The Rhodes genealogy at RIHSL says that Lydia married a Mr. Remington and had a son Peleg. Her husband was very likely Peleg Remington (but needs more research to confirm). This marriage fits nicely between the death of his first wife and his following marriage.

I am also making an assumption that Lydia died in childbirth or shortly afterward. I have not found any death record or gravestone transcription for her. 
Rhodes, Lydia (I10868)
 
7107 The RI American of 29 Mar 1825 reported that Henry died at age 22 as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The Providence Journal of 31 March 1825 likewise reported the death of Henry Remington, of Tiddeman, at Mendon, age 22, "shot himself with a horse pistol." Remington, Henry Mumford (I07822)
 
7108 The RI Cemetery database estimates his birth year as 1708, but his parents weren't married at that time. Perhaps the age on the gravestone is incorrect or was misread.

William's will mentions his father, Elisha, wife Phebe, and children: Job, William, Thomas, Ann (w/o Capt. John Ladd), Phebe (w/o Samuel Hopkins), & Mercy; also his aunt Catherine Brown. I think she must have been Catherine (Greene) Brown, wife of James and sister of Anne Greene, who was mother of William's wife Phebe.

William & Phebe are buried in the Arnold Lot, formerly the Old Baptist Church Cemetery, on the south side of Cowesett Rd., directly east of the Elms Apts., about 40 ft. up on the hill. 
Arnold, William (I08811)
 
7109 The RI Cemetery Database gives his birth year as c1773.

Thomas's will mentions his wife Abigail; brother John whose wife is Mary; sister Hannah, wife of William Carter; sister Mary, wife of Walter Watson; and 18 nieces and nephews. 
Carr, Thomas (I04841)
 
7110 The RI Cemetery Database gives his dates of birth and death exactly the same as his wife's. Perhaps he is actually buried in Vermont, where he died (?), rather in the Newman Cemetery in East Providence, where Ruth is buried.

John & Ruth had 10 children: Sylvester, Joseph, Molly, Hannah, Betty, Russell, Ruth, Olive, John, & Pruda. John and his second wife Chloe had a daughter Abigail. Information on all of these is included in "The Armington Family in America," but I have given data on only the three who link to other families on this tree. 
Armington, John (I08720)
 
7111 The RI Cemetery Database gives the name of Charles's wife as Marcy Remington. Probably this was a transcription error. Maplet Battey's grave is in the Pine Grove Cemetery in Coventry, but the gravestone is missing. The West Greenwich death record says she died 20 Dec 1861 at 79 yrs., 9 mos., and 18 days. It identifies her birthplace as Warwick, but does not name her parents. However, the 1850 WG census gives her birthplace as Massachusetts.

In the 1860 Census at West Greenwich, Maplet was age 78, living with Charles and Ann Battey, her son and daughter-in-law. 
REMINGTON, Maplet (I00339)
 
7112 The RI Cemetery Database has Betsey's year of birth as c1785. She was age 67 in the 1850 Federal Census, which would suggest a birth year of c1783. The date of death in the cemetery data is 28 March 1866; the NASDAR Report of General Records, 1959, p. 57, Bible record of the family of John & Mary (Arnold) Stafford, has Betsey's date of death as 10 March 1866.

The book "Descendants of Roger Williams, Book I," the Waterman and Winsor Lines, p. 71, also gives the parentage of Betsey Stafford. It says she was born 1785, and married Alphonso Armington and/or Charles B. Remington.

In the 1860 Federal Census, Betsey Remington is age 76, living in Cranston, RI, with her son Benjamin W. Remington and his family. 
Stafford, Elizabeth "Betsey" (I15109)
 
7113 The RI Cemetery Database has Calvin's date of birth as 11 Dec 1822, although this does not agree with his age as given in the censuses. Manchester, Calvin (I00956)
 
7114 The RI Cemetery Database has her birth year as c. 1750, and her year of death as 1846. This birth year is proabably based on her age at death. "The Armington Family in America" says she died 18 April 1840 in Seekonk, MA, at age 96, and that would compute to about 1745/6 as the year of birth. I believe this latter date is more realistic, based on the birth date of her first child. Walker, Esther (I05677)
 
7115 The RI Cemetery Database has her birth year as c1748. Unknown, Elizabeth (I02675)
 
7116 The RI Cemetery Database has her name as Carrie M. F. Remington, while the census says Carrie A. Remington, Carrie A. (I10354)
 
7117 The RI Cemetery Database has her year of death as 1859. Remington, Susan Isabella (I15215)
 
7118 The RI Cemetery Database has his date of birth as c.1749. Rhodes, Malachi IV (I07810)
 
7119 The RI Cemetery Database has his date of birth as c1823, and says he died 6 Oct 1843. Hopkins, Otis Almon (I12654)
 
7120 The RI Cemetery Database has his date of birth as c1832. Hopkins, George Randall (I12655)
 
7121 The RI Cemetery Database has his middle initial as "T." Remington, Frank S. (I04002)
 
7122 The RI Cemetery Database has his middle initial as H, and his year of birth as c1789. Boyd Scott Remington has the middle initial as M, and the year of birth as 1779. Remington, Henry M. (I06204)
 
7123 The RI Cemetery Database has his name as Daniel. However, Zilpha's information says w/o David Arnold. It may be that the stones are somewhat illegible. They are buried near each other in the same small family lot. He may have been a son of Lowry & Mary, but this is not confirmed. Arnold, Daniel (I12355)
 
7124 The RI Cemetery Database has John's parents as Robert & Caroline (Knight) Remington, and says they are buried at Pawtucket. However, "Robert" should be "Albert D.," according to all other data I have found.

John A. Remington, MD, and Caroline N. Remington are both listed in the Central Falls Tax Book, 1921.

In the 1920 Federal Census, John & Caroline Remington are ages 52 & 43, living at Central Falls, RI. John is a physician. They have three children: Allen 21, Lawrence 18, & Carolyn 7.

Dr. John A. Remington received his training at Bellevue Hospital Medical College between 1888 to 1891. He became a successful physician in Central Falls. (see Representative Men & Old Families of RI, pp. 591 & 592) 
Remington, Dr. John Albert (I06933)
 
7125 The RI Cemetery Database has Phebe W. Sherman c. 1811 - 30 March 1878, buried SM 019. This is probably the same person, with a discrepancy in the month and day of death. Hull, Phebe Watson (I04821)
 
7126 The RI Cemetery Database has Philip's date of death as 1 Dec 1892. Lake, Philip W. (I18470)
 
7127 The RI Cemetery Database identifies Charles Augustus & Eliza Augusta as children of Albert E. & Eliza Remington. They may have been twins. I believe Albert's middle initial should read F, because these children are buried near Albert's parents, Charles & Mary. Remington, Eliza Augusta (I14700)
 
7128 The RI Cemetery Database identifies Charles Augustus & Eliza Augusta as children of Albert E. & Eliza Remington. They may have been twins. I believe Albert's middle initial should read F, because these children are buried near Albert's parents, Charles & Mary. Remington, Charles Augustus (I14699)
 
7129 The RI Cemetery Database identifies Mary's husband as Washington A. Wilkinson. Elsewhere, he is named as A. J. Wilkinson.

" Washington Adams Jefferson [Wilkinson] was born at the old homestead in Smithfield. His early years were spent upon the farm, but at the age of twenty-one he became involved in manufacturing. In 1833 he married Mary T. Remington, daughter of Capt. Peleg Remington, of Pawtuxet, R. I. In 1844 he moved with his family to Southbridge, [now Worcester Co.,] Mass., and in company with I. P. Irwin, purchased the cotton mill at Ashland. This was destroyed by fire a few years after, and in 1856 he returned to Rhode Island, residing for many years near the old homestead. His character from early boyhood was unexceptionable sic. By nature very retiring a man of few words and conscientiously strict in the performance of duty. During a long, active business life he experienced various misfortunes through which he manifested a noble christian character. Although of quiet habits, he is always cheerful, enjoying whatever the present offers, not regretting the past. Three of his family are living and three are dead. His sons are faithful and efficient business men, one living in Providence, and another in South America." (source: http://freepages.misc.rootsweb.com/~bbunce77/Wilkinson016.html -- Memoirs of the Wilkinson Family in America)

This web site lists six children of Washington & Mary.

In the Federal Census of 1850, the family is living at Southbridge, Worcester County, MA. They have three children in the home: Henry, George, and Mary E. Washington is a manufacturer.

In the Federal Census of 1880, Washington J. & Mary Wilkinson, ages 76 & 71, are living at Lincoln, Providence County, RI. 
Wilkinson, Washington A. J. (I04574)
 
7130 The RI Cemetery Database identifies Sarah as the daughter of Benjamin & Elizabeth. Remington, Sarah Gorton (I02830)
 
7131 The RI Cemetery Database lists Carrie's grave as being in both Greenwood Cemetery, Coventry, and Union Cemetery, North Smithfield. Her dates are the same and her husband is the same. Remington, Caroline "Carrie" M. (I06156)
 
7132 The RI Cemetery Database online has her birth year as c1884, but I think that is incorrect; it should probably be 1834. Carder, Alma Diana (I10661)
 
7133 The RI Cemetery Database says her grave is in Freeborn Brayton Lot, Seven Mile Rd., Cranston, RI. However, there's a memorial stone for her and her husband at the Greenwood Cemetery, CY59, Fairview Ave., Coventry. Probably their graves were moved there in recent years. Seidel, Anna (I10572)
 
7134 The RI Death Index has her date of death as 12 March 1896. It also provides the names of her parents, Benjamin & Sally.

According to the marriage record at Warwick, Olive was the daughter of Benjamin, deceased, of Chatham, MA. 
Dexter, Olive Harding (I05848)
 
7135 The RI Death Index identifies her parents as Obadiah & Esther Brown. I have made an assumption, based on accumulated facts, that her parents are Obadiah & Esther (Wood) Brown of Swansea, MA, and Sterling, CT.

Her name is sometimes spelled Delaney, but the family gravestones spell it Delanie. 
Brown, Delanie (I04576)
 
7136 The RI Death Index identifies him as son of James.

In the 1860 Federal Census, Thomas P. & Mary A. Remington are ages 30 & 26, and are living in Warwick, RI. They are near the household of Johnson B. Colvin, whose wife is Almira (Dyer) (Remington). In the Colvin home are Horace, Andrew, & John Remington, sons of Almira by her first husband, Thomas Russell Remington, second cousin to Thomas P. Remington.

In 1870 Thomas & Mary are still at Warwick, with their eight-year-old son Thomas A. Remington. They are near Betsey Remington, widow of George (s/o Thomas & Almira), and her two children.

In 1880 Thomas & Mary are still living in Warwick, RI. Their son is 15. 
Remington, Thomas P. (I15227)
 
7137 The RI Death Index identifies his parents as Job & Meribah.

In the 1850 Federal Census, Whitman & Dameris are living at West Greenwich, RI. With them are Mary A. & Jobe W. Next door are Bradford J. Harrington & Rosanna.

In 1860 Whitman & Demie are still at West Greenwich. In the household are Job W., 17 (son), as well as three grandchildren: William H. 14, Benjamin A. 7, & Charles W. 4. Also there is a member of the Sweet family.

In the 1870 Federal Census, Whitman & Dimaris are ages 55 & 56, still at West Greenwich. He is a farmer and she is keeping house. It looks as if they may be keeping the town Poor House.

In 1880, Whitman & Damares are ages 75 & 76, still at West Greenwich. With them are son Job, in addition to three grandsons and two granddaughters, plus one servant. 
Harrington, Whitman (I20897)
 
7138 The RI Death Index identifies Jabez as s/o David & Lucy.

In the 1850 Federal Census, he is living with Obadiah Colvin in Cranston, RI, next to Holden & Phebe Colvin.

In both the 1860 & 1870 censuses, Jabez Colvin is living with Charles & Caroline Stone at Scituate, RI. Caroline is probably his first cousin, daughter of Russell Remington, brother of Jabez's mother Lucy. 
Colvin, Jabez R. (I19267)
 
7139 The RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 19, p. 279 & 280, says that Nathan Munro b 29 Sep 1730 Br, son of John & Hannah, is the one who married Sarah Kinnecut. However, a genealogy at Rootsweb has Sarah's husband as Nathan b 3 Oct 1730, son of Joseph & Mary (Bowerman) Munro. This birth is not in the VRs so I have not been able to verify it. Another online genealogy has Nathan, son of John & Hannah, marrying Hannah Allen rather than Sarah. Apparently there were two Nathans born around the same time.

From Bristol VRs: The Nathan Munro who married Mrs. Hannah Allen was "of Bristol." The one who married Mrs. Elizabeth Kinnecutt four years later was "of Warren." They both were married at Bristol by Rev. John Burt. And, another Nathan Munroe married Mrs. Catherine Bragg in 1756 at Bristol, by the same minister. No wonder all these Nathan Munros are confused by genealogists!

Did he died in 1793 or 1801?
MUNRO Capt. Nathan, Jr., Sept. 7, 1793, Br.
MUNRO Capt. Nathan, June 12, 1801, Br. 
MUNROE, Capt. Nathan (I16521)
 
7140 The RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 9 No. 1, p. 2, gives Samuel's birth date as 1 Apr 1663, and questions whether his wife was Mary Sherman. Wilbur, Samuel Shadrack (I03359)
 
7141 The RI Marriage Index gives the date of marriage as 7 June 1856. Family F03403
 
7142 The Roll of Militia in Tiverton, located at the town hall, lists Henry H. Remington for the year 1872. Remington, Henry Hale (I05264)
 
7143 The Round, Rounds Genealogy (at Google Books) has Hannah's death date as May 1813, with her parents identified as Jotham and Desire (Martin) Carpenter. However, that death date is for Hannah (King) Rounds, wife of David Jr. Another source says she died 21 July 1773; a family tree at Ancestry has 1779. Carpenter, Hannah (I28771)
 
7144 The Sheldon Magazine, issue 3 p. 79 has her name as Abigail Sheldon. Gillett, Abigail (I08140)
 
7145 The Social Security Death Index has her name as Maudie Remington.

A family tree by Richard Simpson at Rootsweb's Worldconnect has her name as Maudie Elsie Case. this same tree has her parents' names as William Augustus Case and Mary Catnerine Gray. 
Case, Maude Elsie (I22128)
 
7146 The Social Security Death Index has his year of birth as 1914, while the Stetson genealogy says 1915. Remington, Orvis Charles (I15250)
 
7147 The Social Security Death Index has his year of birth as 1916. Remington, Robert Earl (I11358)
 
7148 The Social Security Death Index records at Ancestry have his date of birth as 26 April 1900. Remington, Raiford White (I05128)
 
7149 The source for George's birth date and parentage was Boyd Scott Remington's chart; other information on George, such as his middle name, marriage, and the name of his son, came from Randal W. Cooper. Some additional research of my own has confirmed that their data is correct.

In the 1850 Federal Census, a George Remmington, age 30 b. CT, is living in Peoria, Illinois.

Note from Randal W. Cooper: " . . . information came from a researcher who had a history of Peoria, Illinois. The book told about George Remmington and his hotel, the Remmington House. Since George Nichols Remington was a tavern owner in Windsor, Connecticut in 1848 and 1849, and since George Nichols Remington sold out his Aetna Insurance policy in March of 1849 and was not present in the 1850 Census of Connecticut, it follows that the Illinois George Remmington was apparently GNR."

Addition excerpt from posting by Randal W. Cooper:
"More information has come to light, regarding L. Case's debtor, George Nichols Remington. L. Case was mentioned in a Suffield Bill of Sale dated November 12, 1842. L. Case was said to be a creditor of George N. Remington. The amount owed at that time was $101.18. I have found, through the kind assistance of several researchers, that George N. Remington had moved from Suffield, Connecticut to the city of Peoria, Peoria County, Illinois, by 1850, when he was enumerated in the Federal Census there as George Remmington (two "m.s"). In addition, George N. Rem(m)ington purchased a hotel in Peoria in 1853 and changed its name from the Massasoit House to Remmington House. He sold the hotel in 1856. In 1857, George N. Remington's son Philip Halsey Remington
entered West Point Military Academy, having obtained his appointment in Illinois. Philip Remington graduated in 1861 and was in the same class
as George Armstrong Custer. This sheds a little more light on L. Case and his relationship to George N. Remington. I hope to find out when and how George N. Remington paid his debt to L. Case, because that will lead to finding Mr. Remington's departure date to Illinois. If you have any information, please share
your insights with me." (Case mailing list at Rootsweb, 23 Jan 2003) 
Remington, George Nichols (I08147)
 
7150 The spouses of Mary and her brother William were probably siblings, both children of Jacob Lewis and Hannah Wilcox. Whitford, Mary (I01877)
