  • Notes 
    • (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me, Lois Sorensen, and to other sources as noted herein.)
      They may be the John & Sarah Remington, ages 28 & 27, living at Augusta, Kennebec Co., ME, in 1860.

      In the 1870 Federal Census, John & Sarah are both aged 38 and are living at Waltham, Middlesex Co., MA. They have two sons: John, 8, and Ernest, 5, both born in Maine. Also with them is Mary Remington, 45 MA, probably John's sister.

      By 1880 John is living at Nances, Muscogee Co., GA. He has another wife, so probably Sarah has died. The household consists of: John Remington 48 MA (works in cotton mill), Frances 39 GA (his wife), John Remington 17 ME (son - clerk in grocery store), William Remington 21 MA (works in cotton mill-- not sure who he is), James Bostwick 18 MA (brother-in-law, works in cotton mill), Ella Bostwick 49 (boarder), and Mary Heard 39 GA (boarder).

      In 1900 John Remington is 68 and living in Ward 6, Columbus, Muscogee Co., GA. Frances is age 49, but probably it should read 59. Also, it says they have been married 17 years, but that does not seem right either. They are with his son John and family.
