  • Notes 
    • The first recorded meeting of Masons in Pawtuxet Village was 12 Apr 1805 at the home of Anthony Aborn, Esq. There were seven present. It was decided to establish a Lodge at Pawtuxet. The third meeting was 26 April at Col. Bowen's house, where they drew up a petition for a Lodge. Eight additional people signed, including Peleg Remington & Simeon Smith, Jr.

      After Simeon moved to Thomasville, GA, he and his son-in-law, Edward Remington, joined together in establishing a mercantile store (from notes by Mrs. Doris Davies).
