  1. 1.  Solomon Remington was born 14 Oct 1810, VT (son of Isaac Remington and Huldah Doty); died 4 Jun 1883, Hamilton Co., IA; was buried , Webster, Webster Co., IA.

    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.)

    In the 1850 Federal Census, Solomon appears to be the individual of that name living at Oswego, Oswego Co., NY. His age is given as 39, which is correct for him. The head of household is Isaac Remington, age 62; both are born VT. Also in the home are the following (not listed in this order): Mary 38, Huldah 27, Joseph 20, Wealthy 11, Truman 8, Irving 3, & Eveline 1.

    In the 1860 Federal Census, Solomon Remington and family are living at Clay, Jones Co., IA. His second wife, Fanny, is age 30; four of his children and one of hers by her previous marriage are in the household.

    In 1870 Solom Remington, 60, and his wife Fannie, 40, are living at Webster, Webster Co., IA.

    In 1880 Solomon & Fannie A. are 69 & 49, still at Webster. Son Erving O., age 31, is with them.

    Solomon married Mary Margaret Ostrander 4 Oct 1836. Mary (daughter of Henry G. Ostrander and Hannah Eliza Unknown) was born 2 Aug 1817, NY; died 29 Jul 1854. [Group Sheet]

Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Isaac Remington was born 1 Mar 1787, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT (son of Jonathan Remington and Martha Sprague); died Aft 1 Jun 1850.

    Notes:

    In the 1850 Federal Census, Isaac is age 62, living at Oswego, Oswego Co., NY. With him is son Solomon and his family, as well as Huldah & Joseph, probably two more of his children. Living two doors down are Nathan & Rhoda Remington; I am making an assumption that Nathan is another son in this family.

    Pat Boyden's genealogy has Isaac's date of death as 11 Nov 1860. However, I have not been able to locate him anywhere in the 1860 census. (This needs more research to confirm.)

    Isaac & Huldah also may have had two additional daughters, named Sarah & Betsy (per notes sent by Charles Norman Hill).

    Follow-up to above note: I have found a couple in the 1850 census, named Oliver & Sarah Morgan. From her daughter Brintha's gravestone inscription, I know that Sarah's maiden name is Remington. Therefore, I am including Sarah as a daughter in this family group (needs further research to confirm).

    Isaac married Huldah Doty Abt 2 Dec 1809, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT. Huldah (daughter of Jorathmiel Doty and Sarah Look) was born Abt 15 Apr 1789, Rochester, Plymouth Co., MA; died 1849, South Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT. [Group Sheet]


  2. 3.  Huldah Doty was born Abt 15 Apr 1789, Rochester, Plymouth Co., MA (daughter of Jorathmiel Doty and Sarah Look); died 1849, South Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT.

    Notes:

    One Doty genealogy says Huldah was born in 1787.

    Notes:

    DOTA (see Doty), Huldah and Isaac Remington, int. Dec. 2, 1809. Marriage, Windsor

Generation: 3

  1. 4.  Jonathan Remington was born 1 Sep 1761, Abington, Plymouth Co., MA (son of Joshua (2) Remington, II and Ruth Clay); died 19 Apr 1833.

    Notes:

    Jonathan served in the Revolution from MA & VT. He enlisted at Cummington, MA.

    His marriage to Martha was obtained from Rootsweb's Worldconnect, so needs verification to determine that it is the same Jonathan Remington. That genealogy lists 11 children for this couple. Other family notes I have seen agree.

    I could not find his birth record at Abington, but Lois Remington Smith lists Jonathan with the children of Joshua & Ruth.

    However, some genealogies have this Jonathan as a son of Thomas Remington b 1726 and his wife Rachel Stowell.

    Also, others show his birthplace as Cummington, Hampshire Co., MA, and his death as c 1840 at Wallingford, VT.

    The Federal Census of 1830 at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT lists a Jonathan Rimmington and a Jonathan Rimmington Jr. The household of the former includes 1 male age 70<80, 1 female 50>60; and three other females -- 1-40<50, 1-10<15, & 1-15<20.

    In 1833 when he appeared for his pension hearing, he said he had lived in Wallingford for 51 years (since 1782).

    The last pension payment was made 12 Sep 1834 (to his wife?).

    Jonathan married Martha Sprague Abt 1786. Martha (daughter of Joseph Sprague and Mary Thompson) was born Abt 1765, Danby, Rutland, VT; died Abt Sep 1834. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    According to the gravestone, "Jerahmeel Doty" died at age 93 (from photo on website of Norman Charles Hill). He was in the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812.

    He appears to be age 86 in the 1850 census (Jerathmun Doty).

  1. 8.  Joshua (2) Remington, II was born 14 Feb 1730/31, Hingham, Plymouth County, MA (son of Joshua Remington, I and Elizabeth Trundy); died Between 1800 and Sep 1811, MA; was buried , West Salisbury Cemetery, West Salisbury, VT.

    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. Some of the information on this family came from Lois Remington Smith in "A Remington Family History.")

    Joshua Remington, Sr. was a soldier in the Revolutionary War.

    The family moved from Abington, MA, to Cummington, MA, sometime between 1772 and 1776. Joshua's three lots in northwest Cummington are in the area known as Remington's Hill (also called Bryant Mt., after the poet William Cullen Bryant who was born in Cummington).

    In 1780 there was a controversy concerning Joshua Remington in the local church, in which his name appears in the church records quite a bit. Among other accusations was that he was causing schisms in the church by his charges against the pastor.

    Joshua and family are in the 1800 census, but not the 1810. His son Benjamin was appointed Administrator of Joshua's estate on 15 Oct 1811 (Probate records of Northampton, Hampshire Co., MA).

    Lois Remington Smith has noted his date of death as Sep 1811.
