  • Notes 
    • This family appears to be listed twice in the 1850 Federal Census, at both Warwick, RI (5 Sep); and Scituate, RI (20 Sep) -- except George, who is already married, is not listed at Scituate.

      Warwick, 1850:
      Thomas Remmington 42
      Almira Remmington 42
      George Remmington 20
      Abby Remmington 18
      Henry Remmington 16
      Horace Remmington 13
      Andrew Remmington 12
      John Remmington 9

      Scituate, 1850 (ancestry has mis-transcribed the surname, but the image shows Remington):
      Thomas Kennington 41
      Almira Kennington 41
      Abby Kennington 18
      Henry Kennington 16
      Albert Kennington 12
      Horace Kennington 9
      Andrew J Kennington 6
      John H Kennington 4

      George is listed separately at Warick, with his wife and child:
      George T Remmington 20
      Betsey P Remmington 26
      Byron D Remmington 1

      It must be the same family, because most of the names are the same, as are the ages -- with slight differences for three of the children.

      Perhaps they were living at Warwick with (or next to) Susan Remington but in that month moved to Scituate.

      Thomas is not listed in the RI Death Index.
