| 6355 | See notes for her father, Captain John Sprague. "Cynthia and her husband had a deeply commited relationship. They had two children, Mary Remington Congdon (1842-1916) and George Barrell Congdon (1846-1902). George was named after the master of the bark Index, the first vessel on which his father sailed. Both children, along with their mother, accompanied John Congdon on sea voyages at various times between 1852 and 1862. During the first few years of her marriage, Cynthia had remained at home when her husband sailed; but by 1852, the emotional hardship she endured during his absences induced her to accompany him to San Francisco on the brig Hannah Thornton, along with young George. In a letter to John dated March 12, 1851, she lamented, | Sprague, Cynthia Anthony (I10853)
|
| 6356 | See notes for her first husband, Charles Hicks. In the 1900 Federal Census, Alice is married to William Harps and is living at New Bedford, MA. The census gives her age as 50 and her date of birth as Oct 1849; however, she is actually about 64 years old, since she was born in 1836. Her middle name was probably Grinnell. Alice died at the age of 81y 1m 21d, of cerebral hemorrage, on 25 Nov 1917. Alice is buried at Rural Cemetery in New Bedford, MA. This cemetery lot has family members of the surnames Remington, Pierce, Briggs, Swift, Harps, Achorn, & Akin. It is next to the lot of David Pierce, his two wives, and other extended family members. | Peirce, Alice Grinnell (I05741)

| 6358 | See notes for his (assumed) father, Jonathan. Could this possibly be the "William Remington, Merchant, of New York," who married Rhoda Bullen of Medway, MA, at Providence, RI, around March 1796? (see Columbian Centinel of 19 Mar 1796) Marriage: 21 Feb 1796 Medway, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA Or, he could be the William Remington, farmer, who married Patience and settled in Oneida County, New York. Some family trees online have these two individuals as one person. | Remington, William (I09604)

|
| 6360 | See notes for Jeremiah's parents Abner and Lydia. The record for Jeremiah's marriage to Lydia Ann (Lake) Manchester identifies him as "son of Lydia." The record for Jeremiah's marriage to Eliza (Pettey) Lake identifies him as "illegitimate son of Lydia Manchester." His death record says he died at age 80 y 8 m 21 d and was son of Abner Wilcox and Lydia Manchester. In the 1840 Federal Census, there are two Jeremiah Manchesters living at Tiverton. I believe this one has 1 male under 5, 1 male 30-40, 1 female under 5, a female 5-10, and 1 female 30-40. In the Federal Census of 1850, Jeremiah Manchester is age 42 RI (c1808) living in Tiverton, RI, and appears to be widowed, as no wife is in the home. With him are: Elizabeth 17, Susan 15, Harrington 12, and Mary J. 9. Jeremiah appears to be in the 1860 Federal Census, still at Tiverton. His age is given as 50, which is about right for this Jeremiah. His wife's at this time is Eliza; her age is given as 48. Also in the household are: Meribah Lake 20, Thomas Lake 18, & Jerod Lake 16 (likely Eliza's children, see her in 1850 census). Next door on either side are two Sarah Lakes, one age 50 and the other age 68. Jeremiah's wife here in 1860 is the Eliza Manchester who died 27 Mar 1895, age 81, d/o Elias Pettey (see RIDI and Tiverton Deaths; also the marriage record identifies her parents). There is marriage record at Westport, MA, for Elizabeth Pettey and Job Lake. A family tree online shows her first husband as Job Lake III (not sure who his parents are). Eliza appears to be in the 1850 census as Eliza Lake, age 35, with children William 18, Marybe 10, Thomas 9, and Jared 5; plus other Lake relatives. In 1870, Jeremiah & Eliza, ages 50 RI & 54 MA, are still in Tiverton. With them is Jerome W. Lake age 9. Could this be Eliza's grandson? It seems that Jeremiah's age should say 60 here. In 1880, Jeremiah & Eliza, ages 70 & 66, are still living at Tiverton. They are next to Abner Lake and family. A Jeremiah Manchester age 74 is listed at Tiverton in the 1885 RI State Census. This would make his birth year c1811. If this is the same individual as Eliza's husband in the previous censuses, it must be Lydia Manchester and Abner Wilcox's son, as mentioned above. * * * * * 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 (I04901)

| 6368 | See the following web site for an interesting overview of FSRs life: http://www.nga.gov/feature/remington/remington02.shtm "Remington is credited as being the primary imagemaker of the historic West. His bronzes are a landmark in the history of bronze casting in both form and subject matter . . . "Frederic Remington was born in Canton, NY, in 1861. His father was a Civil War hero and his mother came from a prosperous family. Frederic demonstrated great interest in horses and military things at an early age, and was sent to the Highland Military Academy in Massachusetts for secondary schooling. Developing an insatiable appetite for art, Remington received his first formal art training at Yale and the Art Students League, but left college before graduating to pursue the adventure and excitement of the western frontier. He gathered information, made sketches, and took photographs which he later used at his home in New Rochelle, NY, to create his paintings and bronzes. He died in 1909 of complications following an appendectomy, and is buried in Canton, NY." (source: http://www.1000islands.com/ogdensburg/remington/fredrem.htm) "Remington made his name as an illustrator, mostly of western and military subjects, for most of the widely circulated magazines of the late 1880s and 1890s.

He did not move there himself, but rather was investing and prospecting, as most did at this time. About the same time and not incidentally I'm sure, all five of his sons and his daughter Amey moved to New York State, mostly to Herkimer County." (Bruce Wightman) Abraham & Susannah had 10 known children. | Wightman, Abraham (I23420)

|
| 6374 | See will dated 5 May 1649, in Abstracts of Portsmouth, RI Wills, "RI Genealogical Register," V. 2 No. 3, by Alden Beaman. This will mentions his wife, Rose Paine. This must have been his second wife, whom he married in 1643. His daughters are referred to as Mary Tripp and Alce (or Alys). | PAINE, Anthony (I01514)
|
| 6375 | See will dated 9 Feb 1686/87 in "RI Genealogical Register." There is some question about the maiden name of Thomas's wife. It has been suggested that she may have been Mary Ayers. (see notes below) From "The Fish Family in England and America," p. 33: "Meetinge Jan. 19, 1651, 2 acres of lande adjoining to Thomas Fish were ordered layd out to Henry Eves in lieu of land given to said Henry by the Towne formerly" "Meetinge March 20 1660, Thomas Fish received a deed of house and land from Henry and Ann Ayres, in consideration of fencing two acres said Henry and Ann to enjoy said land for their lives without paying rent." "Meetinge September 12 1680, Voted: John Biggs is appointed to speke to Thomas Fish that he lay out that acre of land to this townes commons which was lent to Henry eves" (Ayers/Eyers).

|
| 6378 | See will of Sally Greene of Cranston, widow, dated 14 Dec 1836, proved 4 Nov 1854, pg. 76. In it she mentions by name her son and two grandchildren. So this "Sally" must have been the Sarah who was married to Jonathan Remington. In the Federal Census of 1850, Edward & Julia Remington, ages 52 & 38, are living at Providence, RI. On 20 July 1822 his wife Phebe H. Remington petitioned the Town Council concerning her husband who was deranged, asking that his uncle William N. Rhodes be "appointed guardian over the property of her unfortunate husband." Official probate documents show that as of 22 July 1822 Edward S. R. Remington residing in Cranston was delirious and incapable of managing his own affairs, so William N. Rhodes, Esq., of North Providence was appointed guardian of his proprrty and finances. However, on 14 Apr 1827, William N. Rhodes resigned his guardianship and said Edward may be restored to all rights and privileges of a freeman. On 12 Nov 1857, Edward submitted a written statement to the Probate Court of Cranston, concerning a woman who had come to them with a complaint that Edward had not paid her board for the past three or four weeks. He explained that he thought he had been married to the aforesaid woman in a lawful manner, but to his disappointment, her mother-in-law from South Boston came to visit them in July; she informed Edward that the woman's lawful husband lived with her in South Boston "which astonished me very much you must suppose." On 28 Nov 1857, his son Richard T. Remington reported to the Probate Court of Cranston that his father was in want of discretion and incapable of managing his affairs and thereby liable to bring himself and family to want. He prays that someone be appointed guardian of Edward's person and estate. On 21 Dec 1857, Edward S. R. Remington, "now boarding in Providence," sent a note of remonstrance against a petition of the Cranston Town Council. In April 1858, his son Richard T. Remington signed a statement that Edward S. R. Remington of Cranston "is an unsuitable person to manage his affairs with discretion," prays said court to appoint a guardian of the estate according to law. Subsequently, on 15 May 1828, seven individuals signed a petition to the Town Council concerning Edward S. R. Remington, residing near Pawtuxet with his family; they said he was "incompetent to manage his domestic business, or any other lawful duty" and requested that a discreet person be appointed to take care of his person and property as soon as convenient. A similar note is signed by 13 of his "friends" (no date). On 29 May 1858, three men of Cranston were appointed to take an inventory of Edward's estate, to be delivered to Daniel A. Smith, guardian of the estate of the ward. On 27 Aug 1858 his real estate was valued at $2200. The court documents state that his property is the farm that was the homestead of his mother, Sally Greene, late of Cranston, deceased; bordered by land of Arthur and Anstice Greene, Brown & Ives, Salt River, and a road leading from Pawtuxet Village to the City of Providence. In May 1860 a document was signed allowing the sale of Edward's property to pay off his debts; this was signed by Richard, Sarah, & Edward. He is likely the Edward Remington age 66 farmer born Cranston, living in Providence in the 1865 RI State Census. | Remington, Elder Edward Scott Rhodes (I02408)

| 6379 | See: New England, The Great Migration and The Great Migration Begins, 1620-1635 for Clement Briggs In his undated will probated in 1650, Clement Briggs of Weymouth mentions six sons: Thomas, Jonathan, Clement, David, John, and Remember (all under 18 except perhaps Thomas). From findagrave.com; this info from above source, The Great Migration: "Born by about 1600 (the deposition of 1638 implies that in 1616 Briggs had already been a servant of Mr. Samuel Latham for a few years); came from Southwark, Surrey, to Plymouth Colony in 1621 on the Fortune. First residence Plymouth, removed to Weymouth by 1630. He was a felmonger (tanner) and made his mark on his will and other documents. On 6 Oct 1634 he was fined 10s for 'entertaining an Indian without leave.' Died in Weymouth by 23 February 1648[/9?] (date of inventory).

| 6382 | Seth Granger and Abigail Remington; the marriage record does not give her maiden name. | Family F03540
|
| 6383 | Seth is mentioned in the will of his maternal grandfather, Gov. Seth Padelford, for whom he was named. In the 1900 Federal Census, "Seth B. Remington" is age 34, single (no occupation), and living at Warwick, Kent Co., RI. His widowed mother Emily is living with him. In the 1930 Federal Census, this Seth appears to be single, age 64, and living in District 16, Warwick, Kent Co., RI, next to Charles Remington. They are first cousins once removed. However, he may instead be the "Seth B. Remington" age 63, single, rooming on May St. in Worcester, MA. However, I am inclined to believe he is the one at Warwick, although he may have lived in both places and thus was counted twice. Neither one has an occupation at this time. | Remington, Seth Padelford (I04808)
|
| 6384 | Seth was "of Exeter." The marriage records identifies him as "of Lieut. Jeremiah." Exeter land evidence dated 5 July 1753 mentions Seth Jones of Exeter, cooper, kinsman of John Raynolds, Jr. On 27 Apr 1757, Deliverance Jones, widow of Seth, petitioned the Exeter Town Council concerning the estate of her late husband. She requested that, as her husband had died intestate, that [Capt.] John Raynolds be appointed administrator, as he was one of the principal creditors of said estate. | JONES, Seth (I11918)
|
| 6385 | Seth was editor of the St. Lawrence Plain Dealer, NY. In the 1870 Federal Census, Seth W. & Clarissa are living at Canton, St. Lawrence Co., NY. With them is 8-yr-old son, Fred S., someday to become a famous artist. Seth P. was a Major and Colonel in the Civil War. His obituary says he was born 19 Feb 1834. He died of tuberculosis at the age of 46. | Remington, Seth Pierpont (I03469)
|
| 6386 | Seven children were born to Thomas & Dorothy prior to their coming to America in 1638; three children are known to have come with them. (source: Genealogy of the Bliss Family p. 33) "Thomas took the freeman's oath 18 May 1642 at Cambridge, MA, and was one of 58 settlers to locate at Rehoboth in 1643 . . . After obtaining a grant of land from the Plymouth Colony and purchasing it from the Indians, they fixed upon the name 'Rehoboth' seeing it as a fit description of their situation (Gen 26:20-22 and Gen. 36:37)." | BLISS, Thomas (I00687)

| 6387 | Several family trees at Rootsweb's Worldconnect have Elizabeth's maiden name as Kelley or Kelly. | Kelley, Elizabeth (I23940)
|
| 6388 | Several family trees at Rootsweb's Worldconnect show that Abner may have had two or three wives. Jane is his wife in the Federal Census of 1850 at Persia, Cattaraugus Co., NY. Three of their children are in the household: David C. 12, Peter 10, and Ellen 7; also Franklin Wilkins 4 (in 1860 he is Franklin Comstock age 14). | Comstock, Abner (I23265)

|
| 6390 | Several generations of Whitfords are buried, with their spouses, in Coventry Historical Cemetery #135 on Harkney Hill Road, directly across from the historic Maple Root Baptist Church. There are two cemeteries next to each other; the Whitford graves are in the one situated toward the west, which is the older one of the two, commonly known as Maple Root Cemetery. In one lot there are six stones standing in a row, representing three consecutive generations beginning with the ones for Carmi and his wife Barbary, then Jeremiah's and Sally's, then the two for Charles and Harty. I have pictures of the stones individually, as well as the whole group. There is a saying carved on Jeremiah's stone: "Dear husband, you have passed away, and left me here so lonely, But I hope to meet you in that heavenly land where we shall part no more." Some of the next generation are also buried nearby. Pictures of these gravestones are posted on the family tree at our web site [www.thesorensens.net]. I believe Carmi's farm was up on the hill near the intersection of Rt. 3 and Interstate 95, where a motel is now. This is where my great-grandmother lived as a child. Carmi's will was proved in West Greenwich on 28 Jan 1843. In it he mentions his father Nicholas; wife Barbara (Barbary); and sons Caleb B. and Jeremiah (our ancestor), the youngest; daughters Susannah Nichols and Phebe Potter; and granddaughter Lucitta Nichols. An online genealogy shows this family group with two more children: John, b. c. 1800, and Lucietta, b. c. 1805. However, these names are not found on the page with the birth records of the other four children, and are not named as children in the will. The 1850 census of Oneida County, New York shows a Lucetta Whitford, age 45, born in RI, along with Warren Tillinghast, 38. However, she was not of Carmi's family; she was Lucetta Tillinghast, daughter of Elder Pardon Tillinghast. Lucetta had married William M. Whitford on 5 Sept 1824, probably at East Greenwich. Warren was probably her younger brother. | WHITFORD, Carmi (I00340)

| 6391 | Several online family trees at ancestry.com have her date of death as 10 Aug 1826, age 68, no source noted. These trees also have her maiden name as Sherman, no source noted and no parents given. They also say she was born 1758 in Exeter, RI. However, the Richmond family book says she was Amy Richmond, and I am using the information from this book as it seems to be well done, with some images of original documents included for several individuals. (Richmond family, 1594-1896 and pre-American ancestors, 1040-1594; Richmond, Joshua Bailey; Boston, 1981, p 69; at Heritage Quest accessed through my local library) | Richmond, Amy (I26982)

| 6395 | She appears to be Lutheria Bush age 18 NY in the Federal Census of 1870, living at Wayne, Erie Co., PA, with the family of James & Betsey Jackman. Her eldest son was born in PA. The name of Lutheria's first husband, Arthur, was found on the family tree of T. Douglas Bush at Rootsweb's Worldconnect. Some of the following notes were adapted and edited from the family tree of John MayBee at Rootsweb's Worldconnect: 01 MAY 1875 Elk River, Sherburne County, MN: Theria Bush appears on the census of 01 May 1875 in household of William B.
