  • Notes 
    • Warwick Births 1850 - 1882, Vol. 1, p. 57; the birthplace is given as Warwick Neck.

      In the Federal Census of 1 June 1900, Benjamin & Kate are living on Atwood Street in Providence, RI. With them is daughter Addie, 12, and Amelia Buzzell, Ben's sister, age 42.

      In the 1920 Federal Census, Benjamin & Catherine Remington, ages 58 & 50, are living at 103 Atwood St., Providence, RI. With them is Earl W., age 4 y 3 mos. His last name is given as Remington, but I believe he is actually Earl W. Shaw, Benjamin's orphaned grandson. Census data shows that Earl's parents were both born in RI.

      According to the death record, Benjamin F. Remington died 3 Apr 1924 at 103 Atwood St., Providence, aged 61 years.
