  • Notes 
    • Although his given age varies greatly in the censuses, Thomas probably was born between 1821 and 1825, because in the 1840 census he is likely the male 15 < 20.

      Thomas Henry is mentioned in the 21 Oct 1843 will of his grandfather, Benedict Remington. He is "Henry" in the 1850 Federal Census, where he age 27 and a mariner, living with his parents and aunt & uncle in East Greenwich, RI.

      In the 1860 Federal Census, Thomas H. & Mary E. Remington are ages 31 & 29, living at Bristol, RI, with their two daughters, Anneta & Ada. Thomas is a seaman.

      In 1870 the family is still at Bristol. Thomas H. is 47, Mary E. is 39, and they have three children: Annetta G., William H., & Harriet N. Thomas's occupation is carpenter.

      In 1880 they are still at Bristol. Thomas H., a ship carpenter, is 55; Mary E. is 48; two of their children are in the household: William & Hattie N.

      Thomas's age is not consistent (est. dob 1823, 1825, 1829); but Mary's is (dob 1831/32).
