5752 Obituary: Ruth Georgina Shea Willett, age 95, of Dahlonega, GA, died July 12, 2015, after a brief illness.

She was known and loved by many for her creativity, her hospitality, her wry sense of humor, her nurturing and encouraging spirit, her listening ear, her Christian wisdom, and her gifts of teaching, both of the English language and of the Bible.

Born in Houghton, NY, on January 18, 1920, of Canadian parents, she grew up in Ottawa, Canada, Jersey City, NJ, and Syracuse, NY. Her father, the Rev. Adam Joseph Shea, and her mother, Maude Mary Whitney Shea, served pastorates in each city. She graduated from Houghton (NY) College in 1941. That same year, she married Edward J. Willett of Syracuse, NY, who served in World War II. Following 20 years in business, the family moved to Houghton, NY, where Edward became Professor of Economics at the College from which both of them had graduated.

Four children were born to the family: Daniel Starbuck Willett, who married the former Karen Mikesell (now Mrs. Wally Lorimer) and worked for Syracuse University until his death at 47 in 1989; Thomas Leslie Willett, a linguist now based in Tucson, AZ, who with his wife, Elizabeth Remington Willett, has served with Wycliffe Bible Translators for 40 years; Rev. Christine W. Greenwald, Assistant Pastor at the Dahlonega United Methodist Church, who came to Dahlonega in 1997 with her husband, the Rev. Gary Greenwald (now retired), upon his appointment to serve as Director/Manager at Camp Glisson; and Holly Beth Willett Gillette, who was a faithful pastor's wife to the Rev. John R. Gillette (now pastor of the Mooers, NY, Wesleyan Church), until her death at age 41.

In addition to her parents, husband, son, and daughter, Ruth was also predeceased by her seven siblings: Pauline Shea Lusk, Gerald Whitney Shea, Mary Shea Robinson, George Beverly Shea, Alton James Shea, Lois Shea Wright, and Grace Shea Baker.

A sister-in-law, Karlene Shea, of Montreat, NC, eleven grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren and numerous nephews and nieces survive. 
Shea, Ruth Georgina (I14942)
 
5753 Olive Luella was probably named after her father's aunt, wife of Aaron Sprague. Sprague, Olive Luella (I21337)
 
5754 Olive's birth record is not in the Coventry town records. The birth record for sister Florence is also omitted. The record for Bertha was not added until 1943. However, I have made an assumption that these three sisters were born in Coventry, as were their older siblings.

Olive L. and her older sister who died were probably named after their father's aunt, wife of Aaron Sprague. 
Sprague, Olive L. (I21084)
 
5755 Oliver & Pruda moved to Williamstown, Vermont, in 1801. They had 6 known children (see p. 158 of "The Chaffee Genealogy"). Chafee, Oliver (I12773)
 
5756 Oliver & Pruda were married by Elder Jonathan Chaffee, probably Pruda's grandfather. Family F04961
 
5757 Oliver and Vincy were married by Rev. Samuel Miller, her uncle by marriage. Family F04369
 
5758 Oliver is mentioned in the 10 Sep 1697 will of his uncle, Oliver Arnold. Arnold, Oliver (I13020)
 
5759 Oliver M. Remington married Sarah and moved from Tiverton, RI, to Ohio about 1813/14, among the first settlers to live in New Castle, Coshocton County, OH. He was a school teacher, and later moved to Holmes County, c.1820/21. His brother Peter also moved to Ohio.

In the 1850 Federal Census, the family is at Richland, Holmes, OH. Oliver is 62, Sarah is 57; sons John, Thomas, & Lyman are in the household.

"One of the earliest schools in the township, in all probability the first, was held in the cabin that had been occupied by Isaac Butler, in the western part of the township. The children of the Butlers, Darlings and others attended here. In 1814 or 1815, it was taught by Oliver Remington, from Rhode Island, a well educated, intelligent man. He was a brother-in-law to Squire Humphrey, of New Castle township, and remained here only two or three years, removing to Hotmes county." (http://www.heritagepursuit.com/Coshocton/cofile4.htm) 
Remington, Oliver Martin (I04204)
 
5760 Oliver was "of Scituate."

Some family trees have Oliver as a son of William Potter who married Martha Tillinghast, but that is incorrect. That William died in 1729 and Oliver is not listed among his children.

Notes from Andy Dorr:

Oliver Potter was a Captain in Col. Seth Warner's regiment, the Green Mountain Boys of the Vermont militia. He died of smallpox in Quebec.
He died without will. His estate was distributed on 21 May 1781 and recorded on page 131 of same source. The settlement of the estate is recorded on page 137 as recorded on 14 Feb 1788. He commanded a company in Col. Seth Warner's Regiment in an expedition sent by the Colonies against Canada.

Probate: 1 Mar 1785, Tinmouth, Rutland Co., VT. 2 He died without will. His estate was distributed
on 21 May 1781 and recorded on page 131 of same source. the settlement of the estate is recorded on
page 137 as recorded on 14 Feb 1788. 
Potter, Robert (I24952)
 
5761 Oliver was a State Senator from Jamestown in 1855-1856. Armstrong, Oliver Remington (I04669)
 
5762 Oliver was likely the grandson of Thomas Latham of Kingsthorpe, Northamptonshire, England. (source: New England Historical and Genealogical Register, Vol 171 Winter 2017, page 18)

The name of Oliver's wife is not known, but the baptisms of all the children were recorded at Lowick, with Oliver as the father. 
LATHAM, Oliver (I28033)
 
5763 On 1 Aug 1832, David Remington, aged 85, a resident of Greenwich, NY, appeared in the county court to testify concerning a military pension. His Revolutionary War Pension file is #S11288. At the time he said he was residing in Greenwich. He testified that he had been a private in Col. Varnum's Company in RI. He enlisted in April 1776 into Capt. Ethan Clark's Company, Col. Varnum's Regiment, and with them marched from Washington County, RI, where he lived, to Harlem Plains, NY, on NY Island. He said he was engaged in the Battle of White Plains, marched to Delaware, and to Bristol, PA, then to Fenton, NJ, to take the Hessians . . . was in the Battle of Fenton, then to Princeton and thence to Morristown, then accross the Delaware River to Bristol, PA, where he was discharged 18 Jan 1777. During the summer of 1777 he was on duty as a volunteer guarding the mainland of RI. In Aug 1778 he was a volunteer in the RI Expedition under Col. Charles Dyer for about four weeks. In July 1779 he enlisted in a regiment called Barton's Corpse, for one year, under Capt. Stephen Babcock, and was discharged in July 1780. He enlisted again about 1 Sep 1780 for six months under Lieut. Johnson and served until about 1 March 1781 and was discharged. Soon after the war he removed from RI to this town.

His annual pension allowance was $69.75. David was listed on the US Pension Roll of 1835 for Washington County, NY. 
Remington, David Sr. (I04028)
 
5764 On 13 April 1747 Samuel sold the ferry pier and adjoining land on Warwick Neck to Joseph Nichols of Middletown. The "Warwick Ferry" operated up until the Revolutionary War. The land and pier were later owned by Benjamin Greene of East Greenwich, and then by his son William, who owned much of Warwick Neck. Gorton, Samuel III (I06125)
 
5765 On 14 Feb 1732/33 Francis West, weaver, sold land in North Kingstown to his brother Peter West. Francis moved to Westerly where he was made a freeman in 1732 and his son John in 1750. He and his wife Mary were early members of the Westerly Sabbatarian Church. The will of Francis West, dated 6 Sept 1780, proved at Westerly, RI, 24 April 1786, names wife Mary; sister-in-law Sarah Babcock; sons John and Samuel; grandsons Henry son of John, William, and Timothy West. He does not name his son Timothy, long dead. However, only Timothy West who died Westerly ca 1767 had sons William and Timothy. West, Francis (I04992)
 
5766 On 18 June 1741 Thomas Allin of North Kingstown sold land in Portsmouth to Samuel Clark of Boston; witnessed by Ebenezer Allin of Prudence Island.

Some of the children's names are missing or partly missing from the North Kingstown records, so I may have switched two or three of them - specifically Ann & Mary.

The will of Thomas (of John) was dated 1778 NK, proved 1780; mentions wife Ann and children Christopher, Mary, Martha, Thomas dec'd, Samuel, Margaret, and others (names lost).

This family seems to be very confused in published and online genealogies.

Daniel Gould Allen, in his Genealogy of the Allen Family (Google Books), has this family group quite mixed up. He has Thomas born in 1708 and having his first child in 1717. Not possible.

Thomas may have married a second time; I have included this marriage for this particular Thomas:
ALLEN Thomas, of John, and Ann Corey, of John, dec.; m. by Jeremiah Gould, Justice, Sept. 4, 1756; NK.

 
Allen, Thomas Sr. (I13136)
 
5767 On 20 June 1757, Joseph's father was given a certificate from Portsmouth, RI, to live in Richmond, RI. It is my assumption that around that time the family moved from either Portsmouth or from Tiverton to the South County area -- perhaps Richmond, South Kingstown, or Hopkinton -- so that is where Joseph Jr was born. In the early 1760s the family moved back to Tiverton.

A Joseph Remington is in the 1790 Federal Census at Hartland, Windsor Co., VT. There is one free white male over 16 yrs. old, which would be Joseph himself. Also in the household are two free white males under 16, which would be Joseph, Jr. and Simon; and three white females -- presumably Joseph's wife Caty and daughter Asenath; who is the third female?

In the same town in 1790 is listed Simon Simmons, possibly Joseph's brother-in-law.

Federal Census of 1810, Hartland, Windsor, VT: Joseph Remington, 1 FWM 10 - 15, 1 FWM 45+, 2 FWF <10, 1 FWF 26-44; total 5.

From "Genealogical Abstracts of Revolutionary War Pension Files, abstracted by Virgil D. White, Volume III: N-Z," The National Historical Publishing Company, Waynesboro, Tennessee (1992), page 2849:

REMINGTON, Joseph, MA Line, S21943, sol was b 13 Jun 1757 at Hopkinton RI & he lived at Petersham MA at enl & after the Rev he lived at Hartland in Windsor Co., VT where he applied 23 Jan 1833.

From "Soldiers, Sailors and Patriots of the Revolutionary War Vermont," by Carleton E. Fisher and Sue G. Fisher compilers, Second Edition, Pickton Press, Rockport, Maine (1992), page 431:

REMINGTON, Joseph, MA; b Hopkinton, RI 1757; r Petersham, MA; Capt Woodbury's co 1777; r Hartland 1833; 1(S21943).

Hartland deed from "Stephen Hall of Petersham in the County of Worcester and Commonwealth of Massachusetts Bay" to "Joseph Remington late of Petersham" dated March 29, 1781. (from Volume 1 of Hartland's Land Records, page 30)

From "Hartland in the Rev. War," by Dennis Flower, page l3: "Joseph Remington had gone to the village to get his first pension money and after getting in sight of his house dropped dead in the road."

Joseph Remington is listed with Pensioners Under The Act of June 7, 1832; Windsor County, Vermont.

(above research notes from Richard Husband, a descendant)

Excerpt from Richard Husband's email: "The older Joseph Remington here of Wallingford was a totally different Joseph Remington than the one who married Caty Wright. After Caty died, Joseph married Sarah Kimpton (widow of Isaiah Streeter), and it seems pretty clear he always lived in Hartland from about 1781, when he bought land there, until his death. There are two sets of children and wives going on between the two, anyway, according to town records, that confirm they were different people. Some people confuse the Joseph Remington of Wallingford who married "Loranna" with our Joseph of Hartland, and mix the two Joseph's children up." 
Remington, Joseph Jr. (I04032)
 
5768 On 24 Dec 1695 Jonathan said he was aged about 38 years.

On 6 July 1703 Jonathan bought 1/4 of a farm in Cowesett (Warwick). On 16 Jan 1721 he deeded to son Thomas of Swansea 105 acres at Warwick.

He had 8 children. His will was administered 15 Sep 1731; the executors were sons Jonathan & Caleb.

5769 On 24 March 1715, Joseph Hull Jr. and his wife Susannah signed a deed in South Kingstown. Hull, Joseph Jr. (I03829)
 
5770 On 26 Apr 1738, Zachariah Rhodes deeded land in Pawtuxet to his son-in-law, David Knapp of Warwick, and his wife Patience (source: New England Historic Genealogical Register Vol 114 p 282).

David Knap of Gloucestor, cordwainer, bought a mansion house and lot in Warwick bordering other land David owned, 2 MAR 1746/47 Gloucestor, Providence County, RI (source: Warwick Land Records Vol 8 p 85; cited in family tree of Guy/Sam Wallis at Rootsweb's Worldconnect).

David Knap bought land in Warwick adjoining Zachariah Rhodes in 1735. He must have been at least 21 years of age at that time (source: Warwick Land Records Vol 5 p 303; cited in family tree of Guy/Sam Wallis at Rootsweb's Worldconnect).

David Knap is listed in the 1777 Warwick census as being over 60 years of age (source: Rhode Island Military Census 1777; cited in family tree of Sam Wallis at Rootsweb's Worldconnect).

A Nehemiah Knapp died at Pawtuxet at about age 78 in 1815 (b c1737). Could he have been a son of David & Patience?

Also, they may have had a daughter named Hester or Esther, who married at Warwick, 6 Sep 1761, to William France (Warwick Vital Records). 
Knapp, David (I23650)
 
5771 On 28 Nov 1793, John Kittridge of Chesterfield, MA, was appointed guardian of Silas Remington, aged 17 years, of Suffield, CT. Silas is probably the Silas Remmington in the 1800 census at Rupert, VT, along with his brother Thomas. Both of these brothers had sons named Silas, born in VT.

Vermont Gazette, 10 February 1806; Bennington, Vermont: "Silas Remington of Reupert [sic.], is now confined to Bennington jail, on execution of a judgement in favor of Samuel Dinsmer of Rupert. He is to show cause why petitioner should not be allowed to take the oath prescribed by law for the relief of prisoners."

Federal Census of 1810 lists Silas Remington at Rupert, along with Thomas.

From "STATE OF VERMONT ROSTER OF SOLDIERS IN THE WAR OF 1812-14," prepared and published under the direction of Herbert T. Johnson, 1933, page 351: "Silas Remington, Surgeon's Mate, Rupert, Bennington Co., Vt. Served in Capt. Hopkins' Company, Col. Martindale's Regt. Detached Militia in U.S. service 2 months and 13 days, 1812. Served from June 15, 1814 to June 19, 1815 in Capt. Taylor's Company, 30th Inf. Pension Certificate of widow, Margaret, No. 39717."

Is Betsey the same wife as Margaret? See notes for Betsey. 
Remington, Dr. Silas Sr. (I08356)
 
5772 On 3 July 1662 Hugh and his wife Elizabeth sold eighteen acres to William Wood. Hugh was made a freeman in 1663, and on 10 August 1667 enlisted in a "troop of horse." He was Deputy in 1678. It is thought that Elizabeth was the widow of William England, but her maiden name is not known.

A document of Hugh Parsons, dated 20 July 1670, mentions that he is custodian of the estate left to his grandson, Hugh Bailey, by his father William Bailey. He also states that upon his own death and the death of his wife, his grandson shall be sole heir of all his possessions. In his will dated 11 Jan 1684, proved 14 March 1684, he says that if Hugh should die, then the inheritance should pass on to his grandson's heirs. His wife is to bring up this grandson, and he is to be helpful to her. 
PARSONS, Hugh II (I02308)
 
5773 On 31 March 1804 Abel Greene was appointed guardian of David Kettle under age 14, "son of Elizabeth Kettle, now Elizabeth Brown." Kettell, David (I24906)
 
5774 On 5 June 1638 Joan was told to not keep company with Arthur Warren. ALLEN, Joan (I28495)
 
5775 On 5 March 1667/68 and on 3 June 1668 Nathaniel was charged with telling "a pnisous" lie and fined 10 shillings. SOULE, Nathaniel (I16964)
 
5776 On 5 Sept 1883, Benjamin wrote a letter detailing some of his family's history. I have an electronic copy of that letter. LeValley, Benjamin W. (I12207)
 
5777 On 7 Jan 1920 the family was living in Berkeley, Alameda Co., CA; the three Esterly children are in the household -- Everett E. 23, Evelyn A. 23, and Lloyda M. 14. Esterly, Calvin (I28230)
 
5778 On 8 April 1896, Charles Henry Remington of Providence bought two lots in Oakland Cemetery, RI, signed and sealed in the presence of Henry A. Remington. (notes from the Mary E. Rice Collection) Remington, Charles Henry (I13440)
 
5779 On a bond signed 13 Nov 1695, his signature appears as: Nathaniell chaffe; official records of the Plymouth Colony during that period spell it variously as Nathaniell Chaffey and Nathaniel Chafey.

The name Nath: Chafy appears on a list of early members of the First Baptist Church, Swansea, MA.

The following information is extracted from William H. Chaffee's "The Chaffee Genealogy," published by Grafton Press in the early 1900s:

Nathaniell was probably born in Nantasket (Hull), MA, and moved with his parents to Rehoboth between 1657 and 1660. The area where they lived was set apart as Swansea in 1667/68. He "was evidently a valued citizen, for in 1674/75 he was invited by the town of Rehoboth, in which he had formerly lived, to return and again become an inhabitant, land being offered him as an inducement. He sold land in Swansea and removed to Rehoboth."

A blacksmith by trade, Nathaniell and his young family lived in this area during the tension and destruction of King Philip's War (Jun 1675 - Aug 1676). It is recorded that he contributed money to the war effort.

Nathaniell served two terms as constable, was also a grand juryman, and was known as a "tytheing man." This may mean that he gave of his funds to God's work, but it may also mean that he was the church treasurer, responsible for collecting and recording other people's tithes. He married Experience Bliss in 1669, and together they had at least eleven children. Their youngest son, Noah, still lived with them in their later years. It is thought that Noah and his wife, Sarah, probably cared for them in their last days. Nathaniell and Experience died within a short time of each other, in September of 1721. It is believed that they were buried in the old burying ground by the Congregational Church, now in Rumford, RI, where in recent years memorial markers have been placed in their honor. 
CHAFFEY, Nathaniell (I00588)
 
5780 On online genealogy says that Sarah died young. If so, this marriage must be for another Sarah. However, Boyd Scott Remington's ancestry chart shows this marriage in this family group. Remington, Sarah (I08275)
 
5781 On the Federal Census of 1850, the family is living at Richmond, VA. They are listed as Clark. Chalk, Richard (I24171)
 
5782 On the Federal Census of 1860, Jane appears to be living with Franklin & Caroline V. Stearns at Richmond, VA. Her age is given as 53, but that may be a little young. Caroline is Jane's stepdaughter. Pryor, Jane Gray Otis (I24159)
 
5783 On the Federal Census of 1880, Mary Pratt is age 60, living at Morgan, Orleans Co., VT. With her is son William 32, and brother David Knapp 65.

In the Federal Census of 1850, Mary appears to be single, as Mary Knapp 35 VT, living with her siblings and their mother (probably). However, in 1880 she is Mary Pratt and has a son William born c 1848. Either she was already widowed/divorced by 1850, or else she was married after 1850 and adopted an older child. 
Knapp, Mary (I13622)
 
5784 On the marriage record, his parents are given as Thomas and Celia; on the death record of 1907, they are Thomas and Cecelia.

However, there is another Thomas Joseph Mulvey who died 12 Aug 1906, parents John & Catherine.

From the marriage record of Ellen and Thomas, it appears that the correct Thomas is the son of Thomas and Celia. Ellen was already in a relationship with John Berry when Thomas died in 1907. Perhaps they had separated or divorced? 
Mulvey, Thomas Joseph (I10046)
 
5785 On the membership roll of The Baptist Church in Exeter, 15 June 1845: William (d 1865) & Mary Remington.

There is a William Remington listed for Exeter in the 1830 census, and is most likely this William.

In the 1850 Federal Census, William & Mary Rimmington are living at Bristol, RI, with married daughter Waity Ann Arnold and her family. Another daughter, Betsey, is also in the household.

In the 1860 Federal Census, William is 72 and Mary is 69. They are living at Exeter, Washington Co., RI. Also in the household are George H. Remington, 16 (c1844), and Albert A. Arnold, 12. They are next door to Joseph R. & Hannah Arnold and family. Hannah may be their daughter-in-law, who had married their son Stephen, who died in 1843. Assuming this is true, George H. Remington may be the son of Stephen & Hannah.

The death entry at Providence says he died in his 76th year, and identifies him as "son of Hezekiah."

His gravestone in the Greenwood Cemetery, Coventry, says he "died suddenly." 
Remington, William (I05842)
 
5786 On the membership roll of The Baptist Church in Exeter, 4 Mar 1877: George W. Remington, Olive H. Remington, Sarah J. Remington, & Mary F. Remington. (also noted 18 Aug 1877)

He may be the George W. Remington living at Johnston, RI, in 1840. There are no children in the household, just one male and one female 20 - 30.

In 1850 the family is in Smithfield, as follows: Georgew W. Remington 32, Olive H. 31, George H. 6, Julia A. 3, Mary F. 1, and Mary J. 1 (census-taker's error?). George is a weaver.

In the 1870 Federal census, George W. & Olive H. Remington, ages 53 & 52, are living in District 3, North Providence, RI. In their household are three daughters: Julia, 23; Mary F. & Sarah J., both 21.

In 1880, George & Olive are in Exeter, but the census image is unreadable.

In the 1900 Federal Census, George W. Remington is age 83, widowed, and living at Exeter, RI, with his daughter Julia and her husband Nicholas Reynolds.

Notes from "History of the State of Rhode Island with Illustrations," Albert J. Wright, Printer, 79 Mille Street, Philadelphia, 1878, p. 187: "The village [of Centredale, North Providence, RI] has a fine library, having been in successful operation for the past few years. The organization is known as the Union Free Library and Reading-room . . . In April, 1869, the society was organized, and the following officers elected: President, Dr. John O. Budlong; Secretary and Librarian, Frank C. Angell; Treasurer, George W. Remington. In the spring of 1870, the building for the use of the society was completed. The town, in the way of appropriations, has aided the society from time to time. The rooms are carpeted and furnished in a suitable manner. The society receive from the State a certain appropriation for the number of volumes contained in their library. There are eight hundred and seventy-five volumes of the standard works of the day in the library, and it is opened Tuesdays and Saturdays for the benefit of the public."

Notes from "The Rhode Island Manual, 1888-89, Manual with Rules & Orders for the use of the General Assembly," E.L. Freeman & Son, 1888, p. 313: "George W. Remington, of Exeter, was born in that town, May 22, 1817. Was Republican Senator 1877-79; was twice a member of the Town Council and President one year; was for fifteen years superintendent of cotton mills, but at the present time is a farmer by occupation. Politics, Republican."

George's gravestone at Chestnut Hill Cemetery reads: "Blessed are the dead who died in the Lord."

5788 On their anniversary thirty-seven years later, my parents, Norman & Edna Remington, were married.

For many years, Uncle Allen & Aunt Ollie lived at 93 Knotty Oak Rd., Coventry, RI. We often visited them there when I was a child. 
Family F00106
 
5789 On this family tree I have made an assumption that Forest is a son of Claude Remington.

In the Federal Census of 1930, Forest D. Remington, age 8, is living with his grandparents, John W. & Anna Millington. Claud Remington, 43, is living nearby. Could Forest be his son? Very possibly.

From the Social Security Death Index: Forest Remington b 19 Jul 1921 d Jun 1984 last known address Chestertown, Warren, New York 
Remington, Forest D. (I22899)
 
5790 One descendant has the birth date of Lenardo James Remington as 2 June 1814 at Hancock, MA (note: email from M. Lynn Breyfogle).

After his parents died, Lenardo James was probably raised by his half-brother Jonathan, who emigrated to NY State.

I have not found the family in the 1850 census. They are incorrectly indexed by Ancestry in the 1860 & 1870 census transcriptions.

In the 1860 Federal Census, James L. & Elisabeth Remington, ages 46 & 37, are living at Macon, Lenawee Co., MI. They have seven children: Sarah 20, Ann 16, Lorane 14, Mariah 8, Ransom R. 6, Clara 4, & Ellen 4. Also in the household is Lyster Wheeler, 15, a farm laborer.

In the 1870 Federal Census, James L. & Elizabeth Remington are ages 55 & 47. They are still at Macon, MI. With them are seven children: Mariah 18, Ransom 16, Clara 14, Ella 14, William 9, Alisa 6, and James L. 3.

In the 1880 Federal Census, Lenardo J. Remington is age 65, and Elizabeth A. is 57. They are still living at Macon, Lenawee Co., MI, with Lorain, 33, and Ransom R., 26.

5792 One family genealogy (by Maybelle) gives Sally's date and location of birth as 1 June 1796 at Sennett, NY. Maybelle says Sally died of dropsy caused by heart disease at age 92 yrs.

"When on a visit to Aunt Sally Beach in New York, who was ninety years old, she related these incidents which our father told us in our young days." (from family memories written by Calista Remington Bowen, daughter of Rufus) 
Remington, Sally (I28209)
 
5793 One family genealogy has his name as Charles, but with Clarence and a question mark. He is listed as Clarence in the 1850 census.

In 1880 at Sennett, Cayuga Co., NY: Clarence Remington 31, Ella 28, Carol (son) 3; all born NY.

In 1900 he appears to be Clarence Remington, widower, at Sennett, Cayuga Co., NY, with a son and daughter in the home.

5794 One family historian says her surname is Babcock. See notes for her husband Hugh Bailey. Unknown, Anna (I00776)
 
5795 One family tree at Rootsweb gives his birthdate as 25 Nov 1668. Is it possible that there could be two different men named John Briggs, born the same year, both married to Sarahs? (subject to further research) Briggs, John Jr. (I06220)
 
5796 One family tree at Rootsweb says they were married in Bristol, RI. Family F05712
 
5797 One family tree at Rootsweb's Worldconnect has Matthew's parents as Matthew & Eleanor.

Matthew's will, dated 8 Oct 1732, proved 20 Mar 1744. Mentions wife Hannah; eldest son Matthew, sons Caleb and Joshua; five surviving daughters: Lydia, Mercy Luther, Deboral Mason, Ruth Salisbury, and Mary; and children of deceased daughter Hannah Jenckes. (source: Payne-Joyce Genealogy online)

The following note is from the family tree of Peter Rogers at Rootsweb's Worldconnect:
Matthew Boomer d. bef 20 Mar 1743/4; son of Matthew Boomer. On 16 Nov 1724 Matthew Boomer of Freetown, yeoman, appointed his son "Joshuay" Boomer as his attorney regarding his mother's right in the estate of Caleb Church of Watertown. The will of Matthew Boomer of Freetown, yeoman, dated 8 Oct. 1732, sworn 20 March 1743, names wife Hannah; sons Joshua, Caleb and Matthew; eldest dau. Lydia not married; daus. Mercy Luther, Deborah Mason, Ruth Salsbury; also Benjamin Jenks, Lydia Jenks and Joseph Jenks, children of deceased dau. Hannah Jenks; grandson Matthew Luther; dau. Mary Elsberry. (needs research to verify)

The following notes are from [ http://www.harrold.org/familytree/webtree2/145.htm ]:

- Matthew and his [father] Matthew are on the 10/17/1688 tax list for Freetown, MA. The 6/25/1690 list gives only one Matthew Boomer - author cites Richard L. Bowen, Early Rehoboth , Rehoboth MA 1945, 1:86-88.
- On 1/5/1692, ack. 11/20/1694, "Matthew Bommer Sr. of Freetown sold to Matthew Bommer Jr. of Freetown one freeman's lot in Freetown where said Matthew Bommer Junr. now dweleth" - Bristol Co. LR 1:301.

One source says Matthew drowned in 1735 [http://www.keithminnion.com/boomer_page.html]. 
BOOMER, Matthew Jr. (I18118)
 
5798 One family tree online had 10 children listed for Archer: Jabez, Jacob, Zebedee, Job, Edward, Isaac, Abraham, and 3 unnamed daughters. Manchester, Archer (I03694)
 
5799 One family web site has this Joseph dying after 1680, at or near Jamestown, RI. It is possible there is confusion in differentiating between him and the Joseph born abt. 1654. Or, possibly there was only one Joseph, and no one knows whether John I or John II was his father (?). One of them could have died young -- but which one?

If indeed this is a different Joseph than the son of John II, did he die young, or perhaps did he migrate south to Rhode Island?

Read all notes for the Joseph Remington b c1654. 
Remington, Joseph (I02875)
 
5800 One genealogy (Doty notes CD) shows Frank as dying in infancy, but Frank L. Remington is age 14 in the 1880 census, living with his parents. He works in a shoe factory. Remington, Frank Lewis (I19417)
