Notes |
- In the 1880 Federal Census, Charles & Samantha Remmington, ages 29 & 23, are at Webster, Webster Co., IA. They have two children, Charles O. & Nelson B.
In the 1900 Federal Census, Charles & Samantha and six of their children are living at Athol, Kootenai Co., ID. According to the census data, they have been married 24 years; Samantha has had 7 children, of whom 7 are still living. So, there must be another child somewhere.
Possibly they had a daughter named Lucy Amanda (b 3 Aug 1880 in Webster City, Hamilton Co., IA; d 9 Feb 1960 in Sioux City, Woodbury Co., IA; md Asa Harkness b 10 Jun 1870 Sutherland, O'Brien Co., IA; md 5 Apr 1897 in Vermillion, Clay Co., SD. (This needs more research. Asa & Lucy had a daughter named Samantha, so that fact, and Lucy's birthplace, are strong clues.) See also note for daughter Libby.
In 1910 they are still at Athol, with Rhoda & Norman/Newman S. Their adult daughter Jerusha is listed on a different census sheet, although she is living in town and is a public school teacher. Perhaps she boards with different families (?).
Another genealogy has Charles's date of death as 19 Jul 1938, at Orafina, Clearwater Co., ID. This needs more research.
An online genealogy lists these two daughters: Lucy Amanda 3 Aug 1880 (Webster City, IA) - 9 Feb 1960, and Mary Elizabeth 17 Jul 1882 (Webster City, IA) - 12 Dec 1975 (Portland, OR). I see Libby in the 1900 census,but with a different birthdate, and no Lucy. This family needs more research.
