• Notes

  In 1880, Orville is 40, single, and a photographer living in Providence, RI, in the household of William Price. He may be the Orville M. Remington who died 3 Mar 1894 at age 56. I am using this date of death for him as I have not found any other Orville Remington. (needs more research to confirm) "In 1874 James E. Hanrahan began the publication of the Providence Evening Chronicle, but it survived only a short time. In the same year the Sunday Dispatch was started by P. D. & E. Jones; they were succeeded by P. D. Jones alone, and he by W. B. W. Hallett. Soon afterwards C. C. Corbett and Orville Remington became the owners, and the Dispatch Publishing Company was formed. During the year 1890 the establishment passed to ownership of E. A. Corbett, who still continues it as a weekly." (from "The Printer and the Press", by H. P. Smith, Chapter V: State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations at the End of the Century; Vol. II, pp. 563 ff, Ed. Edward Field, A. B. Boston & Syracuse: The Mason Publishing Company, 1902)
