    Notes:

    According to the Jamestown birth record, Dinah was the 3rd daughter of Samson & Dinah.

    According to the books "Samson Battey and His Descendants" and "Representative Men and Old Families of Southeastern Massachusetts" Dinah drowned while sailing across the Bay from Newport to Jamestown six days after her marriage.

  6. 20.  Clemence Battey Descendancy chart to this point (9.Dinah2, 1.William1) was born 4 Jul 1695, Jamestown, RI; died Aft Dec 1733.

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me, Lois Sorensen, and to other sources as noted herein.)
    According to the Jamestown birth record, Clemence was the 4th daughter of Samson & Dinah Battey. As the wife of Gershom Remington, her name has been given as both Clemence and Catherine. I am making an assumption that Gershom's wife was Clemence Battey, whose birth was recorded in the official Jamestown Proprietors Records, Vol. 1, p. 1. The Jamestown birth record has the name as "Clemence Batty." It seems obvious to me that this is the Clemence who married Gershom Remington, especially since they named a daughter Dinah, and Clemence Battey's mother was named Dinah. I have no further proof of her identity, other than this concurrence of data: names, time, and location.

    Clemence married Gershom Remington 13 Feb 1712/13, Jamestown, RI. Gershom (son of Stephen Remington and Penelope Parker) was born 3 Dec 1690, Jamestown, RI; died Aft 1736. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me, Lois Sorensen, and to other sources as noted herein.)
    In the original Jametown birth records he is identified as the "1st son of Gersham & Clemence." The month is unclear (Feb?) and the day appears to be 5th, although others have tranbscribed it as 3rd.

    According to his gravestone data, he died at age 31. His wife's age at death is given as 29. Why did they both die young?

    He was a freeman and a Captain in the Jamestown Militia in April 1744.

    Benedict — Aase Unknown. Aase was born Between 1715 and 1722; died 29 Nov 1744; was buried , Town Cemetery, Jamestown, RI. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    The birth record at Jamestown reads: "Dinah Reminton daughter of Gershom & Clemans his wife born 17 August 1716." Another entry on a different page says 1717.

    Dinah married Ebenezer Smith, Jr. 20 Apr 1738, Jamestown, RI. Ebenezer (son of Ebenezer Smith, Sr. and Abigail Unknown) was born Abt 1715. [Group Sheet]

  12. 32.  Abigail Remington Descendancy chart to this point (20.Clemence3, 9.Dinah2, 1.William1) was born 14 Aug 1718.

    Notes:

    The birth record at Jamestown reads: "Abigale Reminton daughter of Gershom Reminton & Clemans his wife was born August ye 14th 1718."


  13. 33.  Phebe Remington Descendancy chart to this point (20.Clemence3, 9.Dinah2, 1.William1) was born Abt 1720, Jamestown, RI.

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me, Lois Sorensen, and to other sources as noted herein.)
    Although I have not found a birth record for Phebe, the marriage record at Jamestown identifies the bride as Phebe Remington, of Gershom & Clemence, of Jamestown.

    Phebe married William Battey, Jr. 3 Apr 1746, Jamestown, RI. William (son of William Battey, Sr. and Jean Jane Unknown) was born Between 1715 and 1725. [Group Sheet]

    Children:

  14. 34.  John Remington Descendancy chart to this point (20.Clemence3, 9.Dinah2, 1.William1) was born 7 Feb 1723/24, Jamestown, Newport Co., RI; died 15 Nov 1809, Newport, RI.

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me, Lois Sorensen, and to other sources as noted herein.)

    I am making an assumption that this John Remington belongs in this family group, solely based on the names and dates of his children. (But note: this needs further research. At the present time I can not see any other family in which he would fit.)

    Some of John's descendants -- as far as can be determined -- are buried in the Blackstone Cemetery, Blackstone, MA. A stone there refers to John Remington 1680 - 1745. But if this John who married Mary is the son of John b1680, why do the names of his children reflect the ancestry of Gershom & Clemence?

    BSR says he moved from Jamestown in 1756.

    This note may pertain to this John Remington: Newport Mercury 30 Oct 1915, historical note from 31 Jul 1769 - "John Remington carries on shoe making for Elizabeth Mumford, wido, in New Lane."

    BSR has his date of death as 06 December 1809.

    John married Mary Unknown Abt 1748, Jamestown, RI. Mary was born Abt 9 Apr 1725; died 30 Mar 1808, Newport, RI. [Group Sheet]

  16. 36.  Stephen Remington Descendancy chart to this point (20.Clemence3, 9.Dinah2, 1.William1) was born Abt 1730.

    Notes:

    I am including Stephen as a son in this family group solely on the basis of the Revolutionary Pension File of Tiddeman Remington. A letter in this file states that Tiddeman served three months of his enlistment time on behalf of his uncle Stephen Remington. However, I can not see exactly where Tiddeman states that Stephen was his uncle, but the letter, written later, says this. Something may be missing from the published file.

    Could he be the Stephen Remington who was an Ensign at Jamestown and married Sarah Nichols? (see note at Newport Historical Society)


  17. 37.  Gershom Remington, Jr. Descendancy chart to this point (20.Clemence3, 9.Dinah2, 1.William1) was born Abt 1740; died Abt Dec 1792, Jamestown, RI.

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me, Lois Sorensen, and to other sources as noted herein.) I am assuming that Gershom Remington, Jr. is a son of Gershom Remington, although he could be just a younger Gershom in the community, son of another Remington. He witnessed the 1762 codicil to the will of John Hull, and the 1771 will of John Martin, father of Hannah (Martin) Remington, wife of Benjamin. He also was mentioned as "Uncle Gershom Remington, Jr." in the 1773 will of Gershom Franklin (son of Mary Franklin) who was headed out to sea on a voyage (Gershom, Jr. had a sister Mary who married George Franklin).

    The 1777 RI Military Census lists Gershom Remington, age 16 - 50 A, of East Greenwich.

    The Newport Mercury of 17 Apr 1784 reported the marriage of Gresham Remington & Mary Hull, widow, at Jamestown. So, this is a second marriage for Mary. One online source refers to her as Mary Martin, which may well be her maiden name.

    Death notice in the Columbian Centinel of 5 Jan 1793: "Gersham Remington, d. in Jamestown." I am assuming this notice is for this particular Gershom Remington. Apparently he died of smallpox -- see notice below.

    ID Number T2007.003.005
    Collection Town Records (Jamestown)
    "Meeting announcement, handwritten; warrant for town council meeting to announce Gershom Remington has small pox and to discuss methods to prevent spread of the disease; issued by John Eldred, December 19, 1792."

    Gershom married Mary Martin 17 Apr 1784, Jamestown, RI. Mary (daughter of William Martin and Eunice Unknown) was born Abt 1750; died Bef 31 Oct 1812, Washington, Dutchess Co., NY. [Group Sheet]
