  • Notes 
    • (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me, Lois Sorensen, and to other sources as noted herein.)
      In the will of her sister, Hannah Sheffield, proved 8 Oct 1821 at North Kingstown, RI, Elizabeth is mentioned as the wife of Tiddeman Remington of Jamestown. Also mentioned is another sister Sarah, wife of Josiah Shove of Mendon, MA, as well as a deceased brother (name not readable) and three nieces, Mary, Elizabeth, & Hannah. There is no mention of a husband or children, so the implication is that Hannah is single.

      The DAR Patriot Index, Centennial Edition, Part III, P-Z, p. 2435, identifies the wife of Tiddeman H. Remington as Elizabeth Sheffield.

      Elsewhere it has been suggested that she was Elizabeth Anthony, probably because of Ann/Nancy's middle name.
