    Notes:

    John and his family came to New York from Rhode Island probably with the first settlement of "Friends" in 1788, along with his cousin Peleg Briggs and family. They located at Milo Center. They were followers of Jemima Wilkinson, the "Universal Friend," a sort of Messiah figure. A number of families left Rhode Island in the late 1700s and migrated to New York State to found what they called the New Jerusalem, located in Yates County. They were all a part of this sect or cultic offshoot of the Quakers.

    The History of Yates County says that John & Elizabeth came to NY with five children. (RIGR, Vol. 8 No. 4, p. 332)

    John is in the DAR Patriot Index for Revolutionary War Civil Service.

    Notes:

    There is uncertainty as to which Ruth Briggs was the wife of Joseph N. Remington. There were two Ruths of the same name, born the same year, both apparently in Rhode Island -- and, it so happens that they were first cousins. However, it seems very possible that Joseph's wife was this one, as she was born in East Greenwich, as Joseph was.

    Interestingly, Ruth's birth entry and Joseph's birth entry are on facing pages in the old record book of births in East Greenwich.

    So, the birth date and parent data for Joseph's wife are based on an assumption, subject to further research. In any case, the two Ruths have the same grandparents in the Briggs ancestral line. Data on the other Ruth Briggs can also be found on this family tree, since she not only ties into the Briggs line, but also is a descendant of the Bailey family, who are in our own direct ancestry.

    Any further information on this marriage is welcomed.
