  • Notes 
    • In the Federal Census of 1830, Thomas Remington is listed as living in Warwick, RI. In that census, there are three individuals named Thomas Remington in Warwick. However, I have made an assumption that his one is the individual listed with other families of the surnames Hill, Wood, and Browning, who I also am assuming are his relatives.

      Some of the individuals listed on the same census page with Thomas are: Christopher Hill, William Wood, another William Wood, Sally Ann Wood, John Browning, Stephen Browning, and Benjamin Hill.

      For this reason, I have made an additional assumption that this particular Thomas Remington is a son of Thomas Remington and Mary Wood (daughter of William Wood).

      The household data in the 1830 census agrees with the known family information for Thomas, as it indicates one free white male age 30 - 40, one free white female age 30 - 40, one free white female under age 5, and one free white female age 5 - 10.

      Please note that the above assumptions assumptions are supported by census and cemetery evidence, as well as family relationships confirmed by marriages. However, no birth record exists for Thomas, to prove the identity of his parents.

      Thomas had a son named Charles, who may have been named after his (assumed) brother Charles.

      I believe that Thomas is not mentioned in his father's Revolutionary War pension records because he was deceased when the final payment was made to his mother, Mary Remington, who died in 1837.
