    Notes:

    According to the marriage record, Sarah A. Remington, d/o Thomas & Rosetta, was age 18 when she married Gideon in 1857. This would make her birth year c1838, which does not agree with census data. For example, in 1860 her age is given as 28.

    Notes:

    Thomas may have followed in his father's and his uncles' footsteps to sail the seas. The whaling records at New Bedford show a Thomas Remington who twice applied for seamen's insurance. Both times he is described as born in New Bedford, however, not NY. Perhaps, since he was young when the family returned from NY, he was brought up in Massachusetts and considered himself a New Bedford native. On the other hand, this could be a different individual -- but the dates coincide with his age as we know it from the census. On 9 Nov 1853 he was age 18, 5'6", and had light skin, light hair, and blue eyes. On 18 June 1858 he was age 22, 5'6 1/2", and had dark skin, brown hair, and blue eyes. He seems to be taking after his dad in looks and height, too.

    In the Federal Census of 1870, Thomas 35 MA and Sarah Remington 26 TX are living at Chambers Co., TX. With them is Henry Payne, 12 TX. Thomas is a farmer.

    In the Federal Census of 1880, Thomas 45 MA and Sarah C. Remington 36 TX are living at New Bedford, Bristol Co., MA. With them is Charles S. Remington 13 MA. Thomas is a carpenter.

    In the Federal Census of 1900, Thomas Remington is 64 NY (RI/MA) and his wife Sarah C. Remington is 56 NY (NY/GA). They are living at Dallas, TX. According to census data, they have been married 34 years; Thomas is a collector (agt).

    In the Federal Census of 1910, Thomas Remmington is age 75 NY (RI/RI), living at Dallas, TX. His marital status is W, so apparently he is widowed. See notes for Sarah.

    From findagrave.com: Thomas Remington, 80 years old, died at the Fowler Home for the Aged yesterday morning. Funeral service will be held at the Smith chapel at 9:30 o'clock this morning and the burial will be in Oakland Cemetery.
