  1. 1.  Sarah Wright was born Abt 1637; died Aft 7 Jan 1684/85.

    Notes:

    RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 19, p. 293 gives Sarah's maiden name as Wright, and says she was born c1626. However, I believe this year is ony a guess; therefore, I have adjusted the estimate a bit based on their first child being born in 1664. I do not know whether they had any other children born prior to Thomas.

    Children:

  23. 44.  Daniel Remington, Jr. Descendancy chart to this point (15.Ann3, 6.Elizabeth2, 1.Sarah1) was born 11 Feb 1726/27, Warwick, RI; died 8 Jan 1780, Warwick, RI; was buried 10 Jan 1780.

  24. 45.  Peleg Remington Descendancy chart to this point (15.Ann3, 6.Elizabeth2, 1.Sarah1) was born Aft 1727; died Aft 1774.

    Notes:

    I am adding Peleg to this family group based on an entry in "The Rhode Island 1777 Military Census" transcribed by Mildred M. Chamberlain, p. 120 (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1985). It says he is a son of Daniel, age 16 - 50 A, and a prisoner. Why was he a prisoner? This needs more research.

    If he were a son of Daniel Jr., I think it would specify that, since both Daniel (60+) and Daniel Jr. (16 - 50 U) are listed also. I have no record of any marriage for Daniel Jr., so possibly he was physically or mentally hadicapped and never married (?).

    Is he the same Peleg Remington, of Warwick, RI, who served in Capt Wall's Company in 1757 during the French & Indian War? Possibly.

    There are two Peleg Remingtons listed for Warwick in the 1774 RI Census.

    One Peleg Remington of Warwick had a wife named Nansey in 1750. Could it be this Peleg? I am not sure. For the present I have placed Nancy as the wife of another Peleg probably around the same age.


  25. 46.  Anne Remington Descendancy chart to this point (15.Ann3, 6.Elizabeth2, 1.Sarah1) was born Abt 1732.

    Notes:

    I don't know whether the marriage of Anne & Peleg belongs to this family group, but I making an assumption here, that "Anne Remington of Warwick" is a daughter of Daniel & Anne Remington. Apparently the birth of their son Thomas was never recorded in Warwick records, so perhaps this also was the case with Anne. (Needs further research.)

    Anne married Peleg Rice 19 May 1754, Warwick, RI. Peleg (son of Nathan Rice and Sarah Spencer) was born 19 Dec 1730, East Greenwich, RI; died 25 May 1789. [Group Sheet]

  26. 47.  Thomas Remington Descendancy chart to this point (15.Ann3, 6.Elizabeth2, 1.Sarah1) was born Abt 1734; died Bef 20 Dec 1789.

    Notes:

    The marriage record names him as Thomas Remington, of Daniel of Warwick. This is the most likely family group in which to place him. Several genealogists have done so, but realize it is an assumption or "educated guess." His birth is not found in the Warwick vital records along with Samuel, Mary, & Daniel.

    He left his wife Freelove around Jan 1765, and lived "in adultery." She petitioned for divorce in 1771, and it was granted. Did Thomas have children by another woman, or have a second marriage? See notes for Freelove.

    His daughter's marriage record mentions her father Thomas, dec'd; thus I have entered his date of death as bef. 20 Dec 1789.

    Thomas married Freelove Nichols 16 Aug 1759, East Greenwich, RI. Freelove (daughter of Joseph Nichols and Freelove Matteson) was born 7 Aug 1740; died Aft Apr 1771. [Group Sheet]

  27. 48.  Ruel Remington Descendancy chart to this point (15.Ann3, 6.Elizabeth2, 1.Sarah1) was born Abt 1736, Warwick, RI; died Aft 1790.

    Notes:

    Ruel's parentage has never been proven, but various reliable sources have placed him in this family group. (This needs more research to confirm.)

    He was also a private in Col. Elliott's Regiment in 1776, pay due 26 pounds, 11 shillings, 5 pence.

    The name is also spelled Reuel. It is a Bible name meaning "the shepherd" or "friend of God" or "God is his friend." (for more information see: http://www.reference-guides.com/isbe/R/REUEL/e )
