| Notes |
- Important note -- after tentatively placing John P. Remington in this family group, I came across additional information suggesting that he may not belong to this particular Peleg. Warwick records show the death of a John P. Remington on 30 June 1870, age 72, son of Peleg & Amy (Field) Remington. But was it this Peleg, or another one?
A descendant, Gail Gardiner, has supplied information that the Warwick records are incorrect in the name of Peleg's wife and John's mother; according to Gail, she was Amy Fifield, d/o Rev. Moses Fifield. If true, it is highly unlikely that she could have been confused with Phebe Field, as I had previously speculated. (The 1825 will of Freelove Field, wife of William and mother of Phebe, mentions two grandchildren -- Mary & John Remington. Based on that will, plus the marriage record of Phebe Field and Peleg Remington, and John's death record which mentions a father Peleg, I tentatively placed John P. here as that son John, pending further evidence.) This family definitely needs more research. In the meantime, I am leaving John P. Remington and his descendants here until I find which Peleg he belongs to.
According to "The History of Warwick" by Oliver Payson Fuller, p. 199, Rev. Moses Fifield was born 19 Dec 1790 in Unity, NH, and died 19 April 1859. So his daughter could not have been born before 1810 or so. Was there a previous generation that Gail was referring to?
John's will mentions his wife Sarah C., their children, and four grandchildren.
In the Federal Census of 1850, the family is living at Warwick: John P. Remington 51, Sarah C. 39, Ellen M. 15, Amy A. 13, Adaline R. 10, and Florine F. 4.
