5951 Philip emigrated to New England in 1633 or 1634, first settling in Roxbury, MA, near Boston. Being involved in some of the religious controversy in Massachusetts Bay Colony at the time, he and others went south to Providence Plantations, where Roger Williams advised them to purchase Aquidneck Island (Rhode Island) from the Indians. This purchase was completed on 24 March 1638. Their government was established in July 1638, with William Coddington chosen as governor, and Philip Shearman secretary.

Thus, he was the first Secretary (or General Recorder) of the Colony of Rhode Island. The early records, still at Portsmouth, show Philip to have been a very neat and expert writer.

In Rhode Island, Philip joined the Society of Friends (Quakers). He was know for being a devout but determined man. (see "The Sherman Family" by Rev. David Sherman, p. 189)

The Portsmouth Society of Friends was founded in 1658. The present meeting house was completed in 1700. Now known as the Portsmouth Evangelical Friends Church, it is the oldest active Friends' Church in the country.

Some genealogies have the following ancestry for Philip Shearman:
parents -- Samuel & Philippa (Ward) Shearman, of Dedham, Essex, England
grandparents -- Henry & Susan (Hills or Lawrence) Shearman, of Dedham, Essex, England
gr-grandparents -- Henry & Agnes (Butler) Shearman, of Yaxley, Suffolk, England
gr-gr-grandparents -- Thomas & Jane (Waller) Shearman, of Norfolk & Suffolk, England
gr-gr-gr-grandparents -- John & Agnes (Fuller) Shearman, of Suffolk, England

His son Eber may have been born in England. Possibly Philip was already married when he came to America. Philip's will mentions his wife Sarah; sons Eber, Peleg, Edmund, Sampson, Samuel, John, & Benjamin; and daughters Sarah, Mary, Hannah, & Phelep.

5952 Philip married Sarah when he was age 50, according to the marriage record. She was 26. Caswell, Philip Jr. (I26893)
 
5953 Philip's biological father was Bertha's first husband, Samuel E. O'Donnell. Philip was adopted by Charles Austin Chafee. Chafee, Philip Michael (I00473)
 
5954 Philip's gravestone is at Maple Root Cemetery, but he died in Ohio, so perhaps he is buried there.

According to Beaman's RI Genealogical Register, there was a Philip Johnson admitted to membership at Maple Root on 6 August 1814. This is probably the husband of Priscilla, and it was their son Philip who was born in Ohio in 1822. When, and for what reason, did they move to Ohio?

Supposedly there was another Philip Johnson admitted to membership at Maple Root on 30 June 1785, and this one died 13 July 1785. Who was this Philip? Was he an uncle, brother to Philip's father Ezekiel? Or perhaps his father wasn't Ezekiel at all, as stated in J.R.Cole's "History of Washington and Kent Counties," but rather was another Philip (?).

Ruth Nichols Reynolds, in her article titled " A Line of Descent from David Nichols of Coventry," writes that Prisilla Nichols, d/o Jonathan & Prisilla Nichols, married a Philip Johnson who was admitted a member of Maple Root on 30 June 1785 and died 13 July 1785. Where did she get this information from, that his wife was Priscilla? Could our Philip Johnson have been a son of this couple, born after the father died? If so, why does the "History of Washington and Kent Counties" say his father was Ezekiel?

What makes this confusing is that our Philip actually did marry a Priscilla Nichols, but not the one who was a daughter of Jonathan & Priscilla. She was a daughter of David, s/o Jonathan & Priscilla. 
JOHNSON, Philip Sr. (I00332)
 
5955 Philip's will mentions a wife (unnamed), a son Philip, and a daughter Renewed.

A message board posting says that Philip married Elizabeth Allen (widow of William Allen). (SWEET-L Archives at Rootsweb)

I have made an assumption that Philip died at Warwick, his place of residence.

Some genealogies have a Renewed Sweet marrying a John Remington. Is Renewed the same person as Mariam Sweet? 
Sweet, Philip I (I01926)
 
5956 Phineas moved from Stephentown to Allegany Co., NY around 1825. He purchased 66 acres of land, later the farm property of his son Milo. Phineas brought with him his widowed mother Dinah, his sister Lydia, and brother John. Phineas was a carpenter as well as a farmer and was industrious and frugal. He held the offices of Constable, Collector, and Assessor for many years. Both he and his wife Melissa, daughter of Rev. Spencer Sweet, an early settler, were active members of the Seventh Day Baptist Church. They had 11 children. Their son Milo married Alzina daughter of Daniel Coon of West Edmund, Otsego, and succeeded his father in possession of the homestead. He has been a successful farmer, Assessor for three years, and Justice of the Peace for eight years. Another son, Phineas A., born 3 May 1835, was a soldier in the Civil War. In Aug 1864 he married Fanny Stillman. (source: Allegany County and Its People) Shaw, Phineas Kenyon (I29314)

5962 Pictures of Alice and some information on her family and her life were provided by Tom Lavery and Patricia (Borst) Brewer, two of our cousins in Michigan.

My research notes:
In the 1900 Federal Census, John & Alice Borst are living at Gaines, Genesee Co., MI. With them are Sumner Hunter, 13, Alice's son by her first marriage; Mildred White, 10, Alice's daughter by her second marriage; and Gladys Borst, 10 months, daughter of John & Alice. According to the census data, John & Alice have been married 7 years. For some reason, Shirley Borst, age 7, born Jan 1893, is living with a family nearby; the census says she is "A. daughter" -- suggesting adopted daughter. It says she was born in MI, and her parents were born in Ireland & Germany. I cannot read the family name she is with (possibly begins with W), although the wife is Sarah and the 6-year-old son is Arthur.

In 1910, John C. & Allie Borst are living at Flint, Genesee Co., MI. With them are children Shirley, Gladys, Hugh, & Fenton. According to the census data, Alice has had 6 children, and 5 are living at that time.

In 1920 John C. & Allie G. Borst, ages 56 & 49, are living on Flushing Rd., Flint, Genesee Co., MI. With them are the following children: Hugh G. 16, Fenton R. 11, & Cecil J. 2 (adopted son). (Is Cecil J. the son also called James, or was James a son who died young?)

In 1930, John C. & Alice G. Borst are living on Farley St., Flint, Genesee Co., MI. With them are sons Fenton R. & Cecil J., ages 20 & 12.

5963 PIERCE John, of Benjamin, Feb. 20, 1750. North Kingstown Births (Vol. Unknown Original Volume & Page : Pg. 17416)

Please note that there were several individuals of this same name born around the same time.

Some genealogies, including DAR and SAR records, have a different John (born in 1749, birth record at Portsmouth) as marrying Eunice Briggs. But I believe that is incorrect, based on available evidence in NK records.

From the DAR website:
PIERCE, JOHN Ancestor #: A091393 Service: RHODE ISLAND Rank: LIEUTENANT Birth: 15 Feb 1749 NORTH KINGSTON RHODE ISLAND Death: 22 Jun 1829 NORTH KINGSTON RHODE ISLAND Service Description: 1) ALSO ENS, CAPT HAWKINS, COL STANTON

This has to be incorrect because the Portsmouth records make it clear that this John born in 1749 was of Portsmouth, and his family lived on Prudence Island -- so he was not born in North Kingstown. He was a son of Nathaniel and Merebah, of Prudence Island.

The 1829 will of John Pearce of NK mentions his father as Benjamin (not Nathaniel). Please note that I have not seen the clerk's copy at North Kingstown Town Hall -- only a published abstract. John b 1750 NK s/o Benjamin as the one who married Eunice Briggs at NK seems to make more sense, based on two items: John's will which mentions his father, and his granddaughter's being named Eunice Briggs Pearce, as mentioned in that will. It is interesting to note that the two births (Portsmouth and North Kingstown) are just about a year apart. One might wonder if they could be duplicate records in different towns, with one written years afterwards, except that the father's name is different.

There was a third John Pearce who also was a Revolutionary War soldier and a pensioner. He lived at Newport, and died in 1819 at age 67 (according to newspaper reports), which puts the estimate of his birth year at c1752. Elizabeth, widow of John Pearce of Newport, died in 1826.

In addition, there were at least 4 other John Pearces born between 1745 and 1758 in Portsmouth and Little Compton. One of the John Pearces of RI, also a Rev War soldier, died in SC in 1828, as reported in local newspapers.

The will of John Pearce (son of ____amin, deceased), of North Kingstown, is dated May 1817, codicil dated Feb 1819, and proved 14 Sep 1829 (pgs. 279 - 283). It mentions wife Emblin (sp?) who received the furniture she brought (this wording indicates that she was his second or subsequent wife). It names sons William and Nathaniel; daughters Elizabeth (wife of Simon Reynolds) and an unnamed daughter who married Rowland Chadsey; also grandchildren: Christianna Chadsey; and children of son Nathaniel -- William G., Mary Ann, Eliza, and Eunice Briggs, all surname Pearce. Lastly, it mentions Emeline S. Sunderlin, d/o Warren Sunderlin (no relationship specified).

This makes me wonder if John's wife "Emblin" could be Emeline, and perhaps is related to the Sunderlin/Sunderland family. The gentleman referred to in the will is Warren or Warham Sunderland, born in Exeter 2 July 1777; married Mercy; dtr Emeline S. married John Perry in 1826 SK. Warham Sunderland was baptized in NK 19 Aug 1798.

5965 PITCHER John, Jr., at Cranston, in 24th year. Chronicle of June 2, 1785 Pitcher, John Jr. (I26634)
 
5966 Place of birth / family residence at time of birth: 61 Plantation Street, Mansfield, Nottingham, England. She came to America when she was 17, arriving on 24 Oct 1894, along with sister Eliza and brother William. Her name on the passenger list is "Nellie Coleman."

Ellen died at home with her daughter Edna and family at 87 Darrow Drive, Warwick, RI, USA. According to the funeral booklet, she was age 76 y 6 m 22 d. The funeral was on Thursday, 29 October 1953, from 2 pm to 3:30 pm at the Juhlin-Pearson Funeral Home on Broad Street. The pastor was Joseph G. Bodie. Musical selections played were Nearer My God to Thee, Beautiful Isle of Somewhere, My Jesus I Love Thee, Rock of Ages, The City Foursquare, and Jesus Lover of My Soul. Bearers were Pasco Mitola, Wallace Powers, Norman C. Remington, and Richard Remington. Interment was at North Burial Ground, Providence, at 3:45 pm on the 29th.

Notation in my mom's birthday book: "Mother died 1953, Monday (Ellen Berry)"

According to the 1910 census, "Nellie" had 8 children of whom 3 were living at that time. I don't understand that. Did she have children who died in infancy, or were stillborn? It makes more sense if it refers to John's children; 8 born and 3 still living as far as I know. I suppose as she answered the census taker, she was referring to the family head in answering that question. 
COLEMAN, Ellen (I00032)
 
5967 Please note that I am not absolutely sure that Eugene is the son of this particular Mary Elizabeth. However, the location and the time frame agree. I have not been able to find another Mary E. Remington in the 1900 census records for OK. Remington, Mary E. (I19448)
 
5968 Please note that I am not certain Amey belongs in this family group, but I am including her based on notes by Dr. John A. Remington, as well as circumstantial evidence of time, place, and names suggesting it may be correct. This needs more research to confirm. Waterman, Amey (I26624)
 
5969 Please note that I am not positive that Jabez belongs in this family, but time and location in both marriage and census records strongly suggest it. It doesn't seem that he would have been a son of any of Daniel's brothers, although I suppose he could be a son of Samuel if Jabez was born c1755, or son of Stephen. I have searched for confirming data but none seems to be available. I wonder why he did not name a son Daniel, or Stephen or Samuel for that matter. He did name a son Ebenezer, the name of one of Daniel's sons and possibly his closest brother, However, he also named a son Rufus, the name of one of Samuel's sons. So this is inconclusive.

Compiler Katie Mills thinks that Jabez likely served in the Revolution, although no records have confirmed that.

Peter Comstock of Norfolk, CT, sold 100 acres in Norfolk to Jabez Remington, 2 Sep 1775. (source: "A Comstock Genealogy, Descendants of William Comstock of New London, CT" p. 53)

Jabez Remington, of Norfolk, affidavit: " . . . am of the Anne baptis perswasion and do indeavor at all times to attend that worship beleaving in my concience that it is true worship of God." -- witnessed by Elder Joseph Hastings, 12 June 1776 (Norfolk Vital Records 1728-1850).

"Anabaptists are Christians who believe that baptism is only valid when the candidate confesses his or her faith in Christ and wants to be baptized. This believer's baptism is opposed to baptism of infants, who are not able to make a conscious decision to be baptized." (Wikipedia)

"The Anabaptists could find no justification for elaborate church bureaucracies. Decisions should be made not by a hierarchical leader but by the entire local assembly. In fact, the Anabaptists were the first to try to practice democracy in the congregation . . . Another central teaching was the separation of church and state. The church, they said, is to be composed of free,  
Remington, Jabez (I28079)
 
5970 Please note that I am not postive that Melissa belongs in this family group. However, based on 1830 census data and location of her marriage and burial (Huntington, VT) -- as per "bmbloeb" (Bronwen Loeb) on the Remington Message Board at ancestry.com -- it is a reasonable assumption that she belongs in this family. Alternatively, she could be a daughter of Jeremiah.

 
Remington, Melissa (I24281)
 
5971 Please note that I am not sure that Peleg belongs to these parents. I am including him here based on certain evidence including census, location, and age. See notes for Susan Briggs.

In the 1820 Federal Census, Peleg is listed at Warwick: 2 FWM <10, 1 FWM >45, 1 FWF <10, 3 FWF 10-15, 1 FWF 26-44. This suggests that Peleg and Susan had 4 daughters and 2 sons.

In the 1850 Federal Census, Susan Remington is living at Warwick, listed next to -- or possibly with -- Thomas & Almira Remington. This suggests a family relationship. Thomas was s/o Russell Remington.

I have made a working assumption that Susan Remington is Thomas's aunt by marriage to his uncle Peleg.

There may be another son of Peleg and Susan in this family: William H. Remington who married Sarah F. Hazard at Warwick 25 July 1849. (needs more research to confirm -- yes, this has been confirmed)

Peleg's will was dated Nov 1847, proved 14 Feb 1848 at Warwick. It mentions wife Susan and daughter Phebe Ann Arnold.

DAR records show Susan Briggs as Peleg's second wife. I don't know that this is accurate. The DAR file shows "Nancy" as his first wife. I believe there was an earlier Peleg Remington who had a wife named Nancy/Anstice. The two could have been confused by researchers, but then again there could have been two Pelegs with wives named Nancy. However, another thought is that this Peleg's first wife could have been Lydia Rhodes, Phebe Field, or Amy Fifield. I have four possible wives for Peleg Remington II, but that could certainly be incorrect. See notes for Peleg Remington II b 1764.

DAR records show this Peleg as b c1757/58, but the RI Cemetery Database has c1775. 
Remington, Peleg (I26123)
 
5972 Please note that I am not sure which William Remington married Mary Manton, or when he was born, or when either of them was born. I have placed Mary here with this William as a reasonable guess. I am also not sure of all the children. Please read notes for her husband William.

William and his family appear in the town records of Portsmouth frequently, but the names of the children are not specified.

I have estimated the year of their marriage based on the 1723 will of Mary's father which mentions that she is single. 
Manton, Mary (I20404)
 
5973 Please note that Jeremiah's parentage has not been proven. Although no birth record has yet been found for a Jeremiah in this family group, Jeremiah A. has been placed here based on the suggestion of professional genealogist John Redfern (contact information available on request). There is some evidence from the names of Jeremiah's children and grandchildren that he may belong to John & Lucy (Almy) Manchester. I have also speculated that he could be a son of John Manchester (1761) and Mary Brayton, or Perry Manchester (1765) and Anna Bennett.

Therefore, this Manchester line has been determined to be a likely possibility based on research by me, Carla Phillips, and John Redfern. Research is ongoing; any leads are appreciated.

However, Jeremiah is not mentioned as a grandchild in the will of Rhoda Manchester, dated 13 Aug 1823. She is mother of Nancy Manchester, first wife of John.

Also, Jeremiah is not mentioned in the will of John Almy, Lucy's brother; John mentions only two of Lucy's children.

Jeremiah A. may be the Jeremiah who was born 27 Dec 1804, son of John & Rhoda Manchester (not the above Rhoda). See notes below.

Jeremiah's middle name may have been Almy or Allen. He had a son named Isaac Allen, and Isaac in turn had a son named Jeremiah Allen. I found Jeremiah's middle initial in son Isaac's VRs at Tiverton, as transcribed in Alden G. Beaman's "RI Vital Record, New Series, Vol. 13 p. 55, which in turn references TiD 1-24A and TiM 1-49. Note that Lucy Almy has Allen family ancestry; her paternal grandmother was Patience Allen, and two of Lucy's brothers were named Allen.

In Emeline's marriage and death records at Tiverton, Jeremiah is called Jeremy Manchester.

Jeremiah & Mary may have had another daughter, born before the 1830 census, as the census data lists a female under 5. In that census, there is 1 male under 5, 1 male 20-30, 1 female under 5, and 1 female 20-30.

In the 1840 Federal Census, Jeremiah Manchester is living at Tiverton, RI. He and his wife are ages 30 - 40. There are 2 male children and 3 female children in the household. Heads of neighboring households include Benjamin Manchester (probably husband of Lucy A. Cook), Joseph Cook, Abraham Manchester (possibly Jeremiah's uncle), Abner D. Bennett, & Giles Manchester. There are two Jeremiah Manchesters living at Tiverton in this census; the other has 1 male under 5, 1 male 30-40, 1 female under 5, a female 5-10, and 1 female 30-40.

I have estimated Jeremiah's birth year. I have not yet been able to obtain proof of when John Manchester married Lucy Almy, but it is a reasonable assumption that he remarried shortly after the death of his first wife in November 1803.

For the present time I am assuming that Jeremiah died before his wife's second marriage, but this has not been confirmed (see notes below and on this tree for other Jeremiah Manchesters). Again, researching the Manchester clan is an ongoing project.

* * * * *

Various individuals named Jeremiah Manchester about the same age who lived during this time period:

Jeremiah Manchester b 22 March 1786 to Zebedee & Deborah (Briggs) Manchester, Little Compton. Little Compton has no further records on him.

Jeremiah Manchester b c1798-1800 possibly RI (see 1870 census, Putnam, IA; see his sons Jabez & William in 1880), married Tryphena, lived at Providence, Saratoga, NY in 1860; had children Jabez, Myron, Josephine, Helen, possibly others. This Jeremiah is probably a son of Jabez Manchester born c1765 RI (see 1850 census at Providence, NY); Jabez is possibly a son of Archer.

Jeremiah Manchester, b Dec 1804, s/o John & Rhoda. Is he the one at Glocester in the 1850 census, living as a single man, a cook? One family tree online speculates that he is our ancestor, the one who married Mary Dennis. However, no divorce record exists at the Judicial Archives, so he cannot be the same individual.

Jeremiah A. Manchester (our ancestor) b c1804 if he is indeed s/o John & Lucy (or if parentage is unknown, could be b 1795-1808).

Jeremiah Manchester, b 20 Dec 1810, s/o Abner Wilcox and Lydia Manchester (not a married couple); he married three times and is found in the town vital records and censuses; marriage and death record identify him as illegitimate son of AW & LM.

Jeremiah D. Manchester, b c 1814, s/o John & Rebecca. He died 2 Oct 1881 at age 67 (RIDI). According to an online family tree, John Mancester and his wife Rebecca P. Taber went west. (Rebecca born 23 Mar 1782) They may have had another son Job.

Jeremiah Manchester, b 11 Sep 1815, s/o John & Rebecca of Bristol. I believe he is Jerem Manchester, carpenter, single, at Providence in 1850, 1870, and at Bristol in 1880. 
MANCHESTER, Jeremiah A. (I00342)
 
5974 Please note that Orange is placed here as a son of Stephen & Thankful solely on the basis of location, that is, living next to or near other family members in the censuses. To date I have not personally found records to indicate he belongs here, other than the general time frame and location of birth. There is some discrepancy concerning his birthdate. Pat Boyden's genealogy lists Orange as a son of Joseph Remington & Loranna Griffiths. (This family needs more research.)

A descendant, Linda Lee Schell, says there is (somewhere) a family Bible which indicates that Orange's mother was named Catherine. Could Thankful have died and Stephen married a second wife named Catherine? This is a possibility.

In the Federal Census of 1850, Orange & Mary D. Remington, ages 44 NY & 32 NY, are living at Dayton, Cattaraugus Co., NY. They have four children: Hepsabah 13 MI, William W. 10 NY, Garret 8, & George W. 5 NY. They are listed next to Hiram & Alzada Remington.

In the Federal Census of 1860 the family is still at Dayton: Orange 49 VT, Mary D. 42 NY, William W. 20 NY, Garret P. 18 NY, & George W. 15 NY.

In the Federal Census of 1870, Orange & Mary are ages 59 VT & 52 NY. With them is son George, who is married to Alice, and their infant daughter Carrie. They are next to Garret Remington and his wife; they in turn are next to Wallace Remington and family. Nearby is Hiram Remington and family.

A history of Dayton, NY, has his date of birth as 2 June 1810, Wallingford, VT.

From FindaGrave.com: "Arrived in Cattaraugus Co. in 1832 where he cleared a farm in the south part of the Town of Dayton."

5976 Polly and Molly were common nicknames for Mary in earlier centuries. The death record of Joseph Jr. names his parents as Joseph and Polly Rounds.

The death record of Mary Rounds says she was born in Tiverton, and names her parents as Thomas and Alice Remington (both born RI). She died at age 72y 4 m 5 d, of Erysipelas. 
Remington, Mary Polly (I05156)
 
5977 Portsmouth records: LAKE Mary, wife of David, and daughter of Daniel and Hannah Wilcox, born Feb. 25, 1682. WILCOX, Mary (I04703)
 
5978 possible birth record from familysearch.org (needs more research):
Name: Margaret Edwards
Gender: Female
Christening Date: 22 May 1829
Christening Place: St. Chad's, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England 
Edwards, Margaret (Margrette) (I00065)
 
5979 Possibly Christopher's middle name was Warner, his paternal grandmother's maiden name, or Westcott, his maternal great-grandmother's name. According to his gravestone, Christopher died "aged 46 years 6 months 28 days, Beloved, Lamented, Blest."

In the 1860 Federal Census, listed at Little York, Nevada Co., CA, are the following: J. C. Remington 38 RI, Caleb Remington 34 MA, B. L. Remington 32 MA, and C. W. Remington 26 RI. These are mostly likely the four brothers in this family. They are miners. 
Remington, Christopher W. (I06191)
 
5980 Possibly Elizabeth died shortly after their second child was born. No record has been found of other children being born to this couple. Holden, Elizabeth (I04448)
 
5981 Possibly he could be this individual, on a list of Civil War soldiers from Boylston, Oswego Co., NY: REMINGTON, Stephen, enl in the 110th Regt., Aug 18, 1862; died at Baton Rouge, La., Oct 10, 1864."
 
Remington, Stephen (I14439)
 
5982 Possibly he married Hannah Wickes on 15 Dec 1761 at Warwick. Whitford, George (I01260)
 
5983 Possibly he was the Elisha Brown who married Mary Tibbetts b. 1741 (see elsewhere on this family tree). Brown, Elisha Jr. (I03449)
 
5984 Possibly her maiden name was Jerauld, as a daughter was named Mary Jerauld Remington.

In the 1850 Federal Census, Mary Remington is living with her son Alpha J. Remington and his wife and son at Albany, NY. Mary's age is given as 54, but she may have been older than that.

She may also be the Mary Remington, age 67, born RI, boarding at Rochester, NY, in 1860. 
Unknown, Mary (I04575)
 
5985 Possibly her surname was Burket. Burket, Ruth (I02027)
 
5986 Possibly his middle name was Manchester, as that was his mother's maiden name. She had a brother named Edward. Dennis, Edward M. (I11796)
 
5987 Possibly his parents were John Hambley & Mary Wyatt (see Rootsweb's Worldconnect), both born in England, died in Newport, RI.

Benjamin Hambly and his first wife Mary Burrington may have married in Portsmouth. He and his family were given a certificate by the Portsmouth Town Council on 9 June 1746 to relocate to Tiverton. 
HAMBLY, Benjamin I (I01639)
 
5988 Possibly Peleg had a second wife named Susannah. (see RI Genealogical Register, volume 8 No. 3, p. 266) Olin, Peleg (I04758)
 
5989 Possibly she is a sister of Louisa Potter who married John Remington. Louisa's daughter Louisa P. Remington is buried with Ambrose and Matilda in North Burial Ground, Providence, RI. Potter, Matilda (I05376)
 
5990 Possibly she is a sister of Matilda Potter who married Ambrose Whitford. Louisa's daughter Louisa P. Remington is buried with Ambrose and Matilda. Potter, Louisa (I05080)
 
5991 Possibly she is the Phebe Tibbits who married David Willington on 22 Feb 1795 in Cheshire, MA. (See "Cheshire, Berkshire County, MA Marriages, from Early MA Marriages," by Frederick W. Bailey -- at the RI Historical Library.)

Or, could she be Phebe who married our ancestor Jonathan Remington? 
Tibbetts, Phebe (I03235)
 
5992 Possibly she married first to James Diman. See notes for her first husband, Mr. Diman. Wyatt, Elizabeth M. (I11873)
 
5993 Possibly she was the daughter of Jonathan & Assa Tibbetts of East Greenwich, as she fits into this time frame. Tibbetts, Hannah (I06172)
 
5994 Possiby Mary had a daughter before she was married. In the 1851 census, Samuel & Mary Coleman have, in addition to their four children, a "daughter-in-law" (stepdaughter?) named Ellen Greaves, age 19. She could be another relative that they have taken in, and possible the 1-year-old baby is hers. Greaves, Mary (I06522)

6000 Previously I read that when Francis West married Sarah, she was the widow of a Mr. Millard. However, now the Mayflower Society has determined that her maiden name was Sarah Hillard or Hillier.
