    Birth record of my ancestor Maplet Remington and her sisters, with their parents' names, Jonathan and Phebe. Edward S. R. Remington was their half-brother, born to Jonathan and Sarah. Julia and Sally are Maplet's two daughters by her first husband. The writing at the top of the page identifies the original owner of this Bible as Samuel Bowering, Sergeant of Marinus Romulus. He came on this ship during the Revolutionary War. Somehow the Bible was acquired by Samuel Comstock and was passed down I suppose through his daughter-in-law Mercy (Angell) (Comstock) Remington to my relatives in Coventry, who eventually gave it to me.

    Charles J. Battey is my ancestor Maplet's son by her second marriage. This page records his children, the deaths of Maplet and husband James, and two marriage records of my ancestors: Jeremiah and Sally Whitford, and Charles and Harty Whitford.

  • Notes 
    • 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.
