  • Notes 
    • In the 1850 Federal Census, Julius is 6 months old, living at Wallingford, VT, with his parents John & Laura Remington.

      His name appears variously in the census records as Julius K., J.T., and John T. He was probably named after his father, John Julius Remington (who arrears in census records as John J.B., John B., & Julius J.).

      I am making an assumption that he is the J.T. Remington who married Kate A. Kelsey on 30 September, year unknown. His age and location of residence agrees with the family information.

      In May 1880 Julius T. Remington became a partner in the purchase and establishment of the Pioneer Pulp Mill in Wallingford, VT. Later that year the partnership was dissolved.

      In 1880, this couple are living at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT. In 1900 and 1910 they are at Bennington, Bennington Co., VT.

      According to Pat Boyden's genealogy, John's name is John Tasso Remington, and he was born 22 Dec 1849 at Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT.

      The 1900 census data says he was born in Dec 1849. This agrees with the 1850 census data.

      I found an online newspaper image which has a brief entry about this individual, although it calls him T. J. Remington of Bennington, VT. From The Evening News, Ada, OK, 16 & 20 Feb 1904: "T. J. Remington of Bennington, VT, is the owner of a handkerchief which his greatuncle, Jerameel Doty, carried when the latter was a soldier in the revolution and later in the the war of 1812. It was used at one time by the soldier to bind up his own wounds." According to my data Jorathmiel Doty was his great-grandfather, although I do not have proof of this.

      (?In 1850 his name appears to be "Passo." One genealogy has his name as Tasso.)

      "The Congregational Church of Ludlow is significant as possibly the only example of an intact authentic Shingle Style church in Vermont. It was constructed in 1891-92, and retains its historic integrity . . . The church was completed in April 1892 at a total cost of $10,918, including furnishings. J.T. Remington of Wallingford, Vermont, was the construction foreman."
