    Family Hannah Unknown

    Notes 
    • "New England Marriages Prior to 1700" lists this marriage as about 1670, with a child born in 1671. However, if Thomas is their child, they would have been married earlier. Some of these dates and relationships were not officially recorded, and so are subject to "educated guesses" and further research of other documents and histories.

      I am not sure that Thomas b. 1662 is the son of Daniel & Hannah, but Boyd Scott Remington's chart shows him in this famnily, but with no source documentation given. He may have been guessing.

      There may have been two Daniels in this family, one of whom died young. Conflicting data is given by various genealogists.

      Boyd Scott Remington's chart gives his birth date as 2 Oct 1641.

      "New England Marriages Prior to 1700" ( by Clarence Almon Torrey, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., Baltimore, 1985) lists a marriage of Daniel Remington to Hannah, with the birth of a child c. 1671, Boston. I am making a guess that it may well have been this Daniel, as he would have been about 29.

      Did he marry second to Elizabeth (Sanford) Dyer, widow of Henry Dyer, after Feb 1690? (see above reference) I have placed her with the other Daniel, b. 1661 (son of John II), because that Daniel's first wife died before 1690, and also that Daniel himself died not long after that. Elizabeth later remarried.

      A Daniel Remington was deeded property in Essex Co., MA, on 20th 6 mo (Aug) 1674 by Thomas & Mahitabell Remington (source: "A Remington Family History" by Lois Remington Smith, p. A-6).

      A Daniel Remington was "of Boston" in 1680. It may have been this one, which is why I have made a tentative assumption that he died after 1680.

      It is not certain that Thomas was his son, but it is a reasonable assumption, since Daniel seems to be the only one of John's sons who could have been his father.
