    Notes 
    • The Newport Mercury of 6 Dec 1783 reported the marriage of John Remington, Jr. & Phebe Carr, of James, at Jamestown. Since it seems quite clear that John was a son of Benjamin & Hannah (Martin) Remington, the Jr. probably means younger, indicating that there was an older John Remington living in the area at the time.

      "These are to certify that Mr. John Remington & Miss Phebe Carr both of Jamestown in the State of Rhode Island were Joined together in marriage on the 27th of November 1783 by me Gardiner Thurston Pastor of a Ch of Christ in Newport in sd State."

      James N. Arnold's Vital Record of RI, Vol. VII, has the marriage date as 27 Oct 1783, and the bride's name as Phebe Card.

  • Notes 
    • She was the daughter of J. Carr of Jamestown. She is probably the Phebe Remington mentioned in the will of George Tew of Jamestown, dated 9 March 1801.

      Her age at death (69) does not agree with stated birth date (1762). If the years are correct, she would have been 70 when she died.
