• Notes

  Jonathan served in the Revolution from MA & VT. He enlisted at Cummington, MA. His marriage to Martha was obtained from Rootsweb's Worldconnect, so needs verification to determine that it is the same Jonathan Remington. That genealogy lists 11 children for this couple. Other family notes I have seen agree. I could not find his birth record at Abington, but Lois Remington Smith lists Jonathan with the children of Joshua & Ruth. However, some genealogies have this Jonathan as a son of Thomas Remington b 1726 and his wife Rachel Stowell. Also, others show his birthplace as Cummington, Hampshire Co., MA, and his death as c 1840 at Wallingford, VT. The Federal Census of 1830 at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT lists a Jonathan Rimmington and a Jonathan Rimmington Jr. The household of the former includes 1 male age 70<80, 1 female 50>60; and three other females -- 1-40<50, 1-10<15, & 1-15<20. In 1833 when he appeared for his pension hearing, he said he had lived in Wallingford for 51 years (since 1782). The last pension payment was made 12 Sep 1834 (to his wife?).
