    • In the 1900 Federal Census, the family is living at Kenton, Hardin Co., OH.

      In the 1920 Federal Census, T. J. Remington, age 61, and Celesta Remington, age 58, are living at Winslow, Washington Co., AR. Their 3-year-old grandson, John (?) F. Remington, born in MI, is living with them.

      In 1930, Thomas J. Remington is age 71, widowed, and living with his widowed sister Margaret A. Thompson, age 80, in Danville, Knox Co., OH.

      Thomas is the grandfather of Virginia Mae (Remington) Rich, who sent me the Remington family portrait.
