From "BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES, Town of Genesee": JOHN REMINGTON, retired farmer; born in Rupert, Vt., in 1805; he left his native state when 13 years of age, and located in western New York; when the Erie Canal was building, he helped dig stumps and do grading, in what is now the heart of the city of Rochester, being one of a few living men engaged in this work. He married Miss Lucinda Marble, of Casenovia, Oneida Co., N. Y., they coming to Genesee and settling on a wild farm in 1842; began a poor man and disposed of a small stock of cloth and leather as best he might, to settlers as poor as himself; Mr. and Mrs. Remington kept open house for travelers in early days, and mainly a night their floor would be covered with the prostrate forms of sleeping frontiersmen. In his house the first Methodist Episcopal sermon was preached, by the Rev. Mr. Moulthrop, in the fall of 1842, the first prayer meeting having been held there that summer; Mr. Remington was also a pioneer merchant, and relates that he met with business reverses, his store having been broken into and robbed one night, about thirty years ago, by a band of (supposed) Mormons. In 1859 he built, and placed his son in charge of a warehouse and store in North Prairie; sold out his business here, and in 1870, sold his farm; built, and for three years lived in, a new house in Genesee village; removed again to a farm, which he exchanged with Thomas Sugden, thus obtaining the building where he now lives.

5023	John Allin of Prudence Island sold a tract of land to William Remington of Portsmouth, schoolmaster, for 750 pounds, 6 Jan 1738/9. This piece of land, 50 acres more or less, on the island was bounded as follows: S by my son William Allin, W on the Sea, N on the land of William Allin my honoured father, E on my own land. Witnessed by Caleb Hill & John Ingraham. (Po Land Ev. Bk 4 p. 142) Also, on the same day, John Allin sold land on Prudence Island to his honoured father William Allin. This was 50 acres more or less, bounded as follows: S by William Remington, W on the Sea, N by "my own land." witnessed by William Remington & Caleb Hill. Also, on the same day John Allin sold land to Caleb Hill (witnessed by William Remington & Giles Slocum); also to William Havens (witnessed by William Remington & Caleb Hill); and to Giles Slocum (witnessed by William Remington & Caleb Hill). About a month later, on 3 Feb 1738/9, John Allin bought land from William Remington, schoolmaster, of Prudence Island in the Township of Portsmouth. The "sum of 750 pounds in good and lawful bills of public credit . . . truly paid by John Allin of Town, County, and Colony aforesaid . . . a tract of land being on Prudence Island . . . 50 acres be it more or less, butted and bounded as followeth: S by land of William Allin Jun, W on the Sea, N on land of William Allin Senior, E on land of sd. John Allin. Witnessed by Caleb Hill & William Sanford. (Po Land Ev. Bk 4 p. 195) This appears to be the same land bought by William Remington from John Allin a month earlier. On the same day John Allin bought land from Caleb Hill, witnessed by William Remington; also from William Havens and from Giles Slocum. (Po Land Ev. Bk 4 p. 196, 197, & 198)	Allen, Esq. John (I05946)
5024	John Allin/Allen was the first Allen who came to Quidnessett, so he is likely the ancestor of the many generations of Allens in that area. He left Prudence Island and purchased land in North Kingstown in 1705. John's will, proved 7 Apr 1747 NK, mentions wife Sarah; sons Thomas, William, & Jonathan; daughters Phebe Slocum, Elizabeth (?) Fairbanks, Bathsheba Johnson, and Mary Card. When I was a child in the 1950s, our family church was Quidnessett Baptist Church on Post Rd., North Kingstown, RI. One of my first Sunday School teachers was Cora Allen, wife of Harry Allen. Other Allens in their family line still attend there. In fact, the first pastor there was an Allen, back in the mid-1800s.	Allen, John (I09589)
5025	John and all his children are mentioned in the 1837 will of his brother, Thomas Carr.	Carr, John (I15061)
5026	John and his brother were first cousins to our ancestor Maplet. John was Town Clerk of Coventry for over seven years. Probably he was also the John Remington who was a Justice in Coventry in 1809. Death notice in the Providence Journal: "John Remington of Coventry, RI, in 39th year, formerly a member of the General Assembly, leaves wife and eight children." (11 June 1814) His gravestone says he was born c.1781.	Remington, Esquire John (I04044)
5027	John and his family came to East Greenwich about 1695. It is not certain that his wife's maiden name was Gardiner. I have estimated the birth years of John & Elizabeth's children, except for John IV.	Tarbox, John III (I07461)
5028	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. See more information at: http://www.linkny.com/~history/history.htm Yates County is located in the western half of New York State. The county seat is the village of Penn Yan. Some other towns are Potter, Milo, Benton, & Jerusalem. The location can be seen at these New York State county web pages: http://www.nysegov.com/map-NY.cfm http://www.rootsweb.com/~nygenweb/county.htm	Briggs, John II (I05798)
5029	John and his marriage and family ties are discussed in The American Genealogist Vol 81 p 123 ff (see americanancestors.org).	Cole, John (I26719)
5030	John and Mary Dawley are in several deeds at Exeter in the 1740s and 1750s. Some of the wils designate him as John Jr., while others do not; one has both designations in the same will. The surname is sometimes spelled Dawly. Notes from find-a-grave "virtual cemetery" memorial for "John Dawley III": "John made Freeman of the colony 1 Tues May 1730 when of North Kingston -- farmer and carpenter. Lieut. of Exeter Militia C company 1743-44-45. Will made 10 Jul and probated Nov 1755 [my note -- where?] names wife Mary; sons Michael, John, Job, and Peleg; daughters Elizabeth Rathbun, Lydia, Margaret, and Mary. [Wife] Mary was also mentioned in Job Tripp's will. In 1752 one widow named Mary Dawley was on the Exeter tax list; Mary's will made 26 March 1756 named all of the children listed in this family (except Job?). In 1771 Mary Dawley alias Stephens dau of John Dawley of West Greenwich deceased was warned out of Exeter and returned to West Greenwich. Brother Daniel was Executor of John's will." (I am not sure of the source of all of this info -- needs more research)	Dawley, John Jr. (I13317)
5031	John became a freeman at Warwick on 5 May 1724. He was a deputy to the General Assembly from Coventry in 1743 and 1744.

Mathews in "A Line of Descent from Elkanah Johnson of Coventry . . ." in RI Roots Magazine, Vol. 29, No. 3, p. 118. Additional information on John and his family may be found in this very informative article.)	Johnson, John Sr. (I09369)

She is now sixty nine years of age and has resided upon this farm thirty two years. Her husband, Philemon REMINGTON, died in February, 1880, aged sixty-six years. (source: http://www.rootsweb.com/~vermont/GazeteerChittendenCoHuntington.html) (From "Gazetteer and Business Directory of Chittenden County, VT" For 1882-83, Compiled and Published by Hamilton Child, Printed At The Journal Office, Syracuse, NY, August, 1882. Pages 215-223. Transcribed by Karima Allison, 2004) In the 1880 Federal Census, Adeline Remington is age 68, residing with daughter Ansurilla and son-in-law Samuel Randall at Huntington, Chittenden Co., VT.	Fitch, Adaline (I13235)
5042	John Fones settled at Kingston in 1669. He may be the John Fones who was Town Moderator at Jamestown about 1680 (see Proprietors Records at town hall, p. 4). From "Graveyards of North Kingstown, RI" by Althea H. McAleer (RIGS), Lot 4: "the Foneses were early settlers in North Kingstown. In 1672, John Fones and others negotiated with the Indians for a tract of land north of Devil's Foot and west of the Post Road now known as the Fones Purchase. Jeremiah, son of John, and Daniel, grandson of John, both settled on this land. Two old Fones houses, Jeremiah's and that of his son Daniel, the privateer and commander of the colony sloop "Tartar" stood until well into the 20th century on the NW corner of Post Road and Devils Foot Road. [My note: This area has recently been changed due to road construction and rerouting.] According to Hunter White, a Fones house, probably Jeremiah's, was on Namcook Road. It was owned by the Foneses until 1784, then by the Vaughans, the Reynoldses, and the Madisons. The old Fones Graveyard was found by George Harris in 1883 near the NE corner of Newcomb and Post Roads." My note: this land of the Fones family is near or adjacent to the land of my Austin ancestors.	Fones, Captain John (I04996)

5045	John Gore died at age 38 in Boston, of smallpox, 9 Nov 1720. John Gore graduated from Harvard College in 1702, was a librarian in 1705, and later captain of a vessel. (source: A Brief Genealogy of the Gore Family, and Boston death records.) From "Boston, MA: Inhabitants and Estates of the Town of Boston, 1630-1822" (Thwing Collection, at americanancestors.com): John Gore, b Roxbury, Harvard class of 1702, mariner, 1713 md Rebecca Smith d/o Thomas Smith and Rebecca Glover, Capt. John Gore died 1720 of smallpox on return from a voyage, his library to be sold.

One of the estate pages refers to Rebecca Hubbard formerly Gore. See: " Brief history of the Gore Family" (at ancestry.com) to verify that John Gore did marry Rebecca Smith, and after his death she married Nathaniel Hubbard (The Payne and Gore Families, p 5).	Gore, John (I28649)
5046	John Greene came to New England with his family in 1635. On a 1650 map of Providence, his name is shown as owner on one of the original house lots on Towne Steeet. He became a Major in the Rhode Island Militia, Representative to the Rhode Island General Assembly for 12 years, Deputy Assistant Attorney General, agent for the colony in England, and Deputy Governor from 1690 to 1700. (See "Colonial Families of the United States") "He became a large landowner in his own right as well as by inheritance, and was prominently active in all interests of town and Colony. It was written of him at a later period: 'He was a man of great weight of thought, sharpness of wit, aptness of action, and adroitness of understanding.' " (See "The Greenes of Rhode Island" compiled by Louise Brownell Clarke, New York: Knickerbocker Press, 1903, p. 59) Official leadership positions he held: Town Clerk and Surveyor of Warwick, RI Commissioner: Member of Colonial Assemblies Deputy, Assistant, and Deputy Governor for about 11 years Captain of the Militia for 8 years Major for 7 years Attorney general 1657 - 1660 Secretary of State 1652 - 1654 Several times was sent to England as an Agent for the Colony His will, dated Dec 1706, says he is in his 87th year, and his wife in her 80th.

5047	John Greenman's name is found on the list of founding members of the Second Baptist Church of Newport, 1656. He was admitted as a freeman of Newport, RI, in 1638.	Greenman, John (I25832)
5048	John H. took to the sea as did his father, uncles, and some of his cousins. He is recorded as going on a whaling voyage in 1851/52, but I need to check the microfilm to be sure it is he. If so, this may be the voyage on which he died at sea.	Remington, John Hambly (I00762)
