Notes |
- The following notes are from East Greenwich Town Council Records, courtesy of Cherry Fletcher Bamberg, also published in "Gleanings" Apr 2008 by RIGS:
30 Dec 1749 -- A summons was issued to Nansey Remington, wife of Peleg Remington of Warwick, to appear and explain her presence in the town.
21 Jan 1749/50 -- Nansey Remington of Warwick, wife of Peleg Remington, was ordered to leave town before the next council meeting or bring security for abode.

Paraphrased from Warwick land evidence, July 21, 1760:
The 34th year of the reign of George II, Peleg Remington yeoman of Warwick, to Stephen Wilcox yeoman of Warwick, two acres of land in Scituate set off on the south side of Peleg's land, bounded on the west by land of Isaac Tripp, north by land belonging to Jane Remington, east by the highway, south by Stephen Wilcox's land, 100 pounds 10 shillings 4 p. Anstice Remington, wife of Peleg, released and quitclaim her right of dowry and power of thirds on the land in Scituate, deed signed 21 July 1760. Recorded at Warwick 30 Dec 1767.

Does the above refer to this Peleg? And, are Nancy and Anstice the same person? I am not sure, but for the present I have put both names as one wife of Peleg.
