• Notes

  Remington & Dorcas lived in Amsterdam, Montgomery Co., NY, as did some of Dorcas's family who had left RI during the War of 1812. From Genealogy of the Fairbanks Family: "After the destruction of homes on the island of Prudence, RI, by the British (1812), he, with several other families, formed a colony and removed to New York, taking a boat up the Hudson to Albany, thence to Amsterdam, where they settled."
