  1. 1.  Josiah Remington was born 24 Jan 1745/46, Suffield, Hartford Co., CT; died 30 Jun 1830, White Creek, Washington Co., NY.

    Notes:

    Josiah & John were twins.

    The DAR Patriot Index has his date of birth as 4 Feb 1746.

    He may be the Josiah Remington in the 1790 census at Westfield, Hampshire Co., MA. David Remington is listed with him -- possibly a nephew, son of Daniel II. Also in the same town is Jabez Remington, possibly a brother or cousin.

    The 1810 Federal Census in NY lists Josiah & Sinecer Rimmington at Cambridge, Washington Co. Seneca is possibly the son of Daniel II (not confirmed), and if true, would be Josiah's nephew.

    The 1810 Federal Census for Cambridge, Washington Co., NY, has three Remington families or heads of families: Jabez, Josiah, & Severa (Seneca). Josiah and Jabez are listed together. Perhaps that is this particular Josiah (age 45+ in the census), and Jabez is Jabal, his son (age 26-44). These family groups need more research.

    Josiah married Adah Wait 11 Feb 1779, Becket, Berkshire Co., MA. Adah was born 31 Oct 1756, Suffield, Hartford Co. , CT; died 29 Mar 1809, White Creek, Washington Co., NY. [Group Sheet]

  1. 2.  Jabal Remington Descendancy chart to this point (1.Josiah1) was born 13 May 1780, Westfield, MA; died 19 Jul 1846, Suffield, Hartford Co., CT.

    Notes:

    The 1810 Federal Census for Cambridge, Washington Co., NY, has three Remington families or heads of families: Jabez, Josiah, & Severa (possibly Seneca?). Perhaps Jabez is Jabal. His age in the census is 26-44, and he is listed next to Josiah, age 45+.

    DAR files have his dob as 4 May 1780.

    Jabel Remington is buried in Old Mt. Ida Cemetery, Troy, Rensselaer Co., NY: b c1779-14 July 1845. Is this the same individual?
