    Notes:

    James and his wife Mary were baptized 5 April 1846 at the Baptist Church of East Greenwich, RI. The Reverend C. C. Wheeler was the pastor there from Nov. 1845 to Nov. 1847.

    In the 1850 Federal Census, James D. is written as Isaac D. Remington. Perhaps the census taker misread his own handwriting. The family is living at East Greenwich, RI, along with Mary Mowry, 72, probably Mary Remington's mother.

    In 1860 the family is still at East Greenwich: James D., 49; Mary E., 51; Malissa, 25; Alonzo, 22; & Louisa, 22. Louisa is probably Alonzo's wife.

    James married Mary E. Mowry 13 Oct 1833, Fall River, MA. Mary (daughter of Mary Unknown) was born Abt 1810; died 9 Jan 1885; was buried , East Greenwich Cemetery, Beachwood Dr., East Greenwich, RI. [Group Sheet]

    In 1860, Louisa Remington, age 22, is living with the family at East Greenwich. Probably Louisa is actually Emily Louise, also known as Emma -- three names for one wife.

    Alonzo G. Remington was a member of the Six-Principal Baptist Church of East Greenwich on 3 June 1858. This is probably the same individual. However, the 1870 Federal Census at Hillsdale, MI, shows an Alonzo Remington, age 31, with wife Emma, 30, and daughter Louisa, 8 -- all born in RI. Could this be this family? Probably. Living with them are three other individuals born in RI: Chauncey Knapp, John Hopkins, & William Bragg. The men are in carpentry and brickmaking.

    Yes, it is very likely the same family. They are back in East Greenwich, RI, in the 1880 census, except that daughter Louisa is now son Louis, age 18, who is bookkeeping in a cotton mill. Alonzo is a house carpenter and Emily is a dress maker.

    In January 1859, the RI General Assembly voted to incorporate The Third General Six Principle Baptist Church of East Greenwich. Specific names listed in this act were: Gilbert Tillinghast, Timothy Andrews, Joseph Tarbox, Alonzo E. Remington, John C. Carr, Rowland Barton, and Horace Tillinghast. (source: Acts and Resolves of the General Assembly of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations Passed at the May Session, 1858; Google Books)

    Alonzo married Emily Louise Tillinghast 27 Nov 1858, East Greenwich, RI. Emily (daughter of Horace Tillinghast and Sarah "Sally" Tibbetts) was born 7 Jun 1837, Warwick, RI; died 25 Dec 1929, Providence, RI; was buried , East Greenwich Cemetery, Beachwood Dr., East Greenwich, RI. [Group Sheet]
