  1. 1.  Thomas Colvin was born 1710; died 24 Jan 1805.

    One online family tree has Thomas's parents as Samuel Colvin and Phebe Briggs. I have not researched this to confirm it.

    Thomas married Frances Briggs abt. 1735. Frances (daughter of James Briggs and Sarah Wickes) was born 1714; died 10 Dec 1777. [Group Sheet]

Generation: 4

  1. 10.  Thomas Russell Remington Descendancy chart to this point (6.Rachael3, 3.Benedict2, 1.Thomas1) 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.
