  1. 1.  Rachael Colvin was born 22 May 1769, Coventry, RI; died 1 Dec 1837; was buried , Colvin Cemetery, Colvintown Rd., Coventry, RI.

    Notes:

    Cranston Probate Bk. 2, p. 315: whereas Russell Remington late of Cranston, deceased, died Intestate, the court appoints Mrs. Rachel Remington, widow of Deceased, administratrix; dated 9 August 1817.

    In the 1820 Federal Census, Rachael Colvin is listed at Cranston with one son and one daughter, both age 10-15.

    Rachael married Russell Remington Abt 1810. Russell (son of Jonathan Remington and Mary Havens) was born 12 Jul 1776; died 26 Jul 1817; was buried , Historical Cemetery 540 "lost, " Remington Lot, Hope Ave., Scituate, RI. [Group Sheet]

  1. 2.  Thomas Russell Remington Descendancy chart to this point (1.Rachael1) was born 30 Apr 1811, RI; died 18 Oct 1853; was buried , Pocasset Cemetery, Cranston, RI.

    Notes:

    This family appears to be listed twice in the 1850 Federal Census, at both Warwick, RI (5 Sep); and Scituate, RI (20 Sep) -- except George, who is already married, is not listed at Scituate.

    Warwick, 1850:
    Thomas Remmington 42
    Almira Remmington 42
    George Remmington 20
    Abby Remmington 18
    Henry Remmington 16
    Horace Remmington 13
    Andrew Remmington 12
    John Remmington 9

    Scituate, 1850 (ancestry has mis-transcribed the surname, but the image shows Remington):
    Thomas Kennington 41
    Almira Kennington 41
    Abby Kennington 18
    Henry Kennington 16
    Albert Kennington 12
    Horace Kennington 9
    Andrew J Kennington 6
    John H Kennington 4

    George is listed separately at Warick, with his wife and child:
    George T Remmington 20
    Betsey P Remmington 26
    Byron D Remmington 1

    It must be the same family, because most of the names are the same, as are the ages -- with slight differences for three of the children.

    Perhaps they were living at Warwick with (or next to) Susan Remington but in that month moved to Scituate.

    Thomas is not listed in the RI Death Index.

    Thomas married Almira Dyer Abt 1830. Almira (daughter of John Dyer and Patience Sprague) was born Abt 1809, RI; died 15 Dec 1887, Auburn, RI; was buried , Pocasset Cemetery, Cranston, RI. [Group Sheet]
