Father Thomas Remington, Sr., b. 24 Feb 1718/19, Warwick, RI , d. Aft 1774 (Age > 56 years) Mother Mary Collins, b. Abt 1720, d. Aft 29 Jul 1754 (Age ~ 34 years) Married 23 Nov 1740 Providence, RI [3] Notes - I am making the assumption that the Thomas and Mary whose marriage is recorded in Scituate, belongs to this family group, since this Thomas had a brother Lippitt, whose marriage was also recorded in the same book. The notation implies that they were married in Providence, but that the marriage was recorded in Scituate several years later. The Scituate record says 20 Nov.
Providence records this marriage: Thomas, of Providence, and Mary Collins, of Scituate, m. by William Burton, Justice, Nov. 23, 1740. (see Arnold's VRs for Providence - Marriages p. 157)
REMINGTON Thomas, and Mary Collins, of Eliza; m. by William Burton, Justice, Nov. 20, 1740 (Scituate VRs).
He may have been the Thomas Remington who later moved to Portsmouth (needs more research); see this note from Barbara Chase: "Scituate, RI Probate Records; Vol. 1; p. 409 - 28 Jul 1759 - Certificate to Thomas Remington who has 'moved with his family to Portsmouth' and acknowledged that he, his wife, and children were proper inhabitants of the town of Scituate."

I have made an assumption that this marriage record refers to this particular Prudence Remington, because her father's name, and the time frame, fit her.

Notes - She may be the Prudence Remington who married Pearce Budlong at Warwick on 27 Aug 1769. I have made this assumption in placing this marriage here on this family tree.
