    • Genealogist Martha A. Benns has linked James to his father Thomas, of Warwick, and this marriage in Coventry to the same family group. I am making the assumption that she is right.

  • Notes 
    • In the 1850 Federal Census, the family is living at Providence, RI, Ward 4. Daniel & Betsy are both age 44. With them are 6 children, Mary A. Briggs (possibly Betsy's sister?), Henry A. Remington 27, and Caleb Remington 23. Daniel's occupation is given as "merchant," and the other 3 Remington men, including his son Edward, are clerks. I am not sure who Henry & Caleb are (needs more research).

      In the 1880 Federal Census at Providence, RI, Daniel is age 74, widowed, and a cotton broker. Living with him is daughter Kate, age 40, single and keeping house.

      The cause of death is noted as "oedema of lungs."

      The RI Cemetery Database gives his birth month as January.
