  1. 1.  Joseph Remington was born 21 Nov 1768, Abington, Plymouth Co., MA; died Aft 1 Jun 1850, NY.

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me -- Lois Sorensen, Remington researcher -- and/or to other sources as noted herein.)

    This Joseph Remington is probably the one listed in the 1810 Federal Census at Wallingford, Rutland, VT: 1 FWM<10, 1 FWM 10-15, 1 FWM 26-44, 3 FWF<10, 1 FWF 26-44; total 7. Also, Stephen & Joshua Remington (likely his brothers) are listed in the same town.

    In the 1850 Federal Census, this Joseph appears to be the Joseph Remington, age 84 b. MA, living at Chester, Warren, NY, with Wiliam Remington, 30 b. VT, and Almira 35, b. PA and their daughter Laura A. 8, b. NY. They are next door to Jeremiah 44 & Polly 45 Remington, and their two (presumed) daughters, Sylvia & Mary.

    This Joseph has often been confused with Joseph Remington of Windsor, VT, our closer relative, who, by his own affidavit, was born (about) 13 June 1757 at Hopkinton, RI.

    Joseph married Loranna Griffiths Abt 1795. Loranna (daughter of Jeremiah Griffiths and Eunice Unknown) was born Abt 1779, VT; died Bef 1 Jun 1850. [Group Sheet]

Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Silvia Remington Descendancy chart to this point (1.Joseph1) was born 7 Nov 1796, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT.

    Notes:

    I am making an assumption that Silvia is the daughter of Joseph Remington of Wallingford, VT, because she was born in Wallingford. (needs further research)


  2. 3.  Joseph Remington, Jr. Descendancy chart to this point (1.Joseph1) was born 21 Dec 1798, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT; died Aft 1 Jun 1880, Washington Co., NY.

    Notes:

    I have placed Betsey as this particular Joseph's wife, and these children as his children, based on his date of birth and his age in the various censuses; also, the location of their parents' birth in the 1880 census agrees. Therefore, I have made an assumption that this family belongs to this Joseph born 21 Dec 1798.

    In the 1850 Federal Census, the family is living at Kingsbury, Washington Co., NY:
    Joseph Remington 52 VT farmer
    Betsey 43 VT
    Gilbert 23 VT
    Robert 20 VT
    Albert 16 VT
    Allen 11 VT

    In the 1860 Federal Census, the family is living at Hartford, Washington Co., NY:
    Joseph Remington 61 VT farmer
    Betsey 53 VT
    Robert 30 VT
    Albert 26 VT
    Allen 21 VT
    Ann 22 NY (possibly Albert's wife?)

    In the 1870 Federal Census, the family is living at Fort Ann, Washington Co., NY:
    Joseph Remington 71 VT farmer
    Betsey 63 VT
    Gilbert 43 VT
    Robert 40 VT

    In the 1880 Federal Census, they are living at South Bay, Washington Co., NY:
    Joseph Remington 81 VT (MA/VT) farmer
    Betsey 73 VT (CT/VT)
    Robert 50 VT (VT/VT) (born without use of his limbs)

    Joseph married Betsey Edgerton Abt 1826, VT. Betsey (daughter of Robert Douglas Edgerton and Anna Bull) was born 21 Jan 1807, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT; died Aft 1 Jun 1880, Washington Co., NY. [Group Sheet]

    Children:
    1. 7. Gilbert Remington  Descendancy chart to this point was born Abt 1827, VT; died Aft 1 Jun 1870.

    3. 9. Albert Remington  Descendancy chart to this point was born Abt 1834, VT; died Aft 1 Jun 1880.
    4. 10. Allen Remington  Descendancy chart to this point was born Abt 1839, VT; died Aft 1 Jun 1860.

  3. 4.  Lucy Remington Descendancy chart to this point (1.Joseph1) was born 13 Mar 1803, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT.

  4. 5.  Jeremiah Remington Descendancy chart to this point (1.Joseph1) was born 6 Dec 1805, Wallingford, Rutland Co., VT; died Aft 1 Jun 1880.

    Notes:

    In the 1850 Federal Census, Jeremiah, 44, and Polly, 45 (his second wife?), are living in Chester, Warren, NY, with daughters Sylvia 18 & Mary 6. They are near Jeremiah's brother William and his family, and their father, Joseph.

    In the Federal Census of 1870, Jeremiah & Polly are ages 64 & 65, living at Chester, Warren Co., NY.

    In 1880, Jerry & Polly Remington, ages 74 & 75, are still living at Chester, Warren Co., NY. Jerry is a shoemaker.

    In his daughter Fanny's marriage record at Lowell, MA, he is called Jereboam.

    Jeremiah married Harriett Thayer Abt 1821. Harriett died Between 1832 and 1843. [Group Sheet]

    Children:

  5. 6.  William Remington Descendancy chart to this point (1.Joseph1) was born Abt 1820, VT; died Aft 1 Jun 1850.

    Notes:

    (If you use any portion of these notes, please give credit to me -- Lois Sorensen, Remington researcher -- and/or to other sources as noted herein.)

    I am making an assumption that William is a son of Joseph, because he & Almira are living with Joseph in the 1850 Federal Census at Chester, Warren Co., NY (needs more research). They are next door to (presumed) brother Jeremiah and family.

    In 1870 there is a William Remington, age 52, living at Queensbury, Warren Co., NY, with wife Charlotte, 36, and three children. It says he was born in NY. This may be a second marriage for this particular William, although the occupation has changed from farmer to lawyer. (needs more research)

    William married Almira B. Unknown Abt 1841. Almira was born 1817, PA; died 23 May 1852, NY; was buried , West Church Cemetery, Chestertown, Warren Co., NY. [Group Sheet]

  6. 12.  Harriett Remington Descendancy chart to this point (5.Jeremiah2, 1.Joseph1) was born 16 May 1824, Hartland, VT; died Bef 1 Jun 1860.

    Notes:

    If indeed it is this Harriet who married Gates T. Embury (or Emery), her middle initials are E. C., according to the marriage record.

    Gates is in NH without her in the 1860 census, so I have assumed she died.

    Harriett married Gates T. Embury 11 May 1845, Haverhill, MA. Gates was born Abt 1822, NH; died Aft 1 Jun 1860. [Group Sheet]
