I have made an assumption that William belongs in this family group, for two reasons: he is living in the same geographical area as Wager's sister Penelope and Wager's assumed son Richard M. Remington; also, his first two children appear to be named after his parents.
Update: the death record gives his father's name as Wagar Remington.
His middle initial is given as both L and M in different censuses; I have used M because it is in two censuses. He was probably named after William Martin, father of Mary Martin who married Wager Hull and Gershom Remington.
In the 1850 Federal Census, William L. & Antoinette Remington, ages 40 & 41, are living at Rose, Wayne Co., NY. They have seven children in the home: Wager G. 16, Susan 14, George !2, Wm. M. 10, Chas A. 6, Silas K. 4, & Anna 2.
In the 1860 Federal Census, the family is at Savannah, Wayne Co., NY: William 50, Ann J. 51, Charles 16, Silas R. 14, Anna 12, & Hannah C. 10. William's (assumed) brother, Richard, is also living at Savannah with his family in 1860. Both of these families have a son named Wager; these two cousins are working in Butler, Wayne Co., NY, along with George, another of William's sons.
In the 1870 Federal Census, William M. Remington is 60 and his wife "Agmett" is 61. With them are Anna 21 & Hannah 17. They are living at Boston, Ionia Co., MI. Next door is son Silas and his wife Emma.
In the 1880 Federal Census, Wm. M. Remington and his wife Ann J. Remington are ages 69 & 70. They are living at Boston, Ionia Co., MI. Next door is son Silas K. Remington and his wife and family. (see notes for Silas)
