  • Notes 
    • (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me -- Lois Sorensen, Remington researcher -- and/or to other sources as noted herein.)

      In the 1860 Federal Census, Justus B. & Eliza A. Remington, ages 44 & 32, are living at Schroon, Essex Co., NY. They have two sons: Charley 4, and Justus B. 1 month. Also in the household are Joshua Remington, 70 (assumed to be father of Justus), Helen Davis 8 (probably a niece), and Orange Remington, 20. They are living next to brother Zeba (Ziba) Remington and family, and also Henry Remington and family.

      In 1870 J. & Eliza A. Remington, ages 53 & 41, are still living at at Schroon, NY. They have two children: Clarissa 14, & Justice Jr., 10. I believe Clarissa should be Charles, their son. Also with them is Hellen Davis, 18. The family is living near Orange & Sarah Remington.

      In 1880 Justus & Eliza are ages 63 & 61, and are still at Schroon, NY. Son Justus Jr., age 20, is still with them. They are next to Charley & Cora Remington and two dwellings away from Orange & Jane Remington and family.

      I think Orange may be a son of Justus from a first marriage. (This has since been confirmed by Valorie Sherman.) In 1850, there is a Mary Remington, age 14 VT, and Orange Remington, age 10 NY, living with the Davis family at Bolton, Warren Co., NY. Justus's two sisters were living there, both having married a Davis.
