Notes - On 28 Nov 1793, John Kittridge of Chesterfield, MA, was appointed guardian of Silas Remington, aged 17 years, of Suffield, CT. Silas is probably the Silas Remmington in the 1800 census at Rupert, VT, along with his brother Thomas. Both of these brothers had sons named Silas, born in VT.
Vermont Gazette, 10 February 1806; Bennington, Vermont: "Silas Remington of Reupert [sic.], is now confined to Bennington jail, on execution of a judgement in favor of Samuel Dinsmer of Rupert. He is to show cause why petitioner should not be allowed to take the oath prescribed by law for the relief of prisoners."
Federal Census of 1810 lists Silas Remington at Rupert, along with Thomas.
From "STATE OF VERMONT ROSTER OF SOLDIERS IN THE WAR OF 1812-14," prepared and published under the direction of Herbert T.
