  • Notes 
    • He may be the Henry Remington in the 1850 and 1860 Federal Censuses at Champion, Jefferson Co., NY. In 1850 he is age 18 NY, a laborer, living with the family of Henry Gear. In 1860 probably the same Henry Remington is still living at Champion, age 31 NY, with a (presumed) wife named Sylvia C. age 22 NY. They are living with Silas & Sarah Ann Chapin, possibly parents of Sylvia. There were several Henry Remingtons in New York State, so it is uncertain which one this is at Champion.

      In the Federal Census of 1870, H. and Mandana Remington, ages 38 NY and 42 NY, are living at Diana, Lewis Co., NY. They have two daughters, Eliza 2 and Clara 8 months.

      In the Federal Census of 1880, Henry and Mendina (?) Remington are ages 47 NY and 52 NY. They are still living at Diana, NY. Eliza is 12 and Clara is 10. They are near Amos and family, who I believe to be his cousin.

      In the Federal Census of 1900, Henry and his wife M (?) are still at Diana, NY. Lizzie is with them, age 32.

      In the Federal Census of 1910, Henry & Mandana are both 81, still living at Diana, NY. According to census data, they have been married 42 years; Mandana has had three children of whom one is still living.

      Henry's gravestone says he was born in 1829, but the 1900 census gives his date of birth as Feb 1831.

      According to Mary Lou Raftery, Henry had a first marriage to Dolly Austin b 10 May 1834 NY; and a third marriage was to Cordelia Tyler, on 19 May 1911.
