Ziba Remington

Notes:

(If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me -- Lois Sorensen, Remington researcher -- and/or to other sources as noted herein.)

Ziba was brought up in Vermont, but as a teenager or young adult went to New York State for employment, finally settling in Horicon, Warren County, where he engaged in farming and lumbering businesses. (info source: "New England Families" Vol. I, Genealogies and Memorials, p. 381)

If these dates are all correct for this family, Ziba would have been born when his mother was 53. While this is possible, it must be acknowledged that Ziba may have been born several years earlier, or even that he may have had another mother -- possibly a single mother in the family.

In the 1860 Federal Census, Ziba & Mary Remington,ages 26 & 22, are living at Schroon, Essex Co., NY. They have a 1-year-old son, Worden.

In 1870, the family is at Horicon, Warren Co., NY. Ziba & Mary, ages 37 & 33, have four children: Worden, Sidney, Eddie, & Fred. Joshua Remington, his presumed father, is living with them at age 80.
