• Notes

  (Information on the Remington's Dairy was obtained from several newspaper articles on file at the North Scituate Library.) Robert was the general manager of the Remington's Dairy business that had been started by his great-grandfather Thomas around 1875. After World War II, it was one of the top seven dairies in Rhode Island, and at its peak had over 50 delivery trucks on the road. Around 1959 they sold all their cows, opting to buy milk from the Borden Co. Around July 1968 the company went into receivership, finally closing its doors in July 1969. Robert, a bachelor all his life, was active in many civic organizations.
