  7. 26.  George Nichols Remington Descendancy chart to this point (12.George3, 3.Isaac2, 1.Benjamin1) was born 15 May 1819, CT; died Aft 1 Jun 1850.

    Notes:

    The source for George's birth date and parentage was Boyd Scott Remington's chart; other information on George, such as his middle name, marriage, and the name of his son, came from Randal W. Cooper. Some additional research of my own has confirmed that their data is correct.

    In the 1850 Federal Census, a George Remmington, age 30 b. CT, is living in Peoria, Illinois.

    Note from Randal W. Cooper: " . . . information came from a researcher who had a history of Peoria, Illinois. The book told about George Remmington and his hotel, the Remmington House. Since George Nichols Remington was a tavern owner in Windsor, Connecticut in 1848 and 1849, and since George Nichols Remington sold out his Aetna Insurance policy in March of 1849 and was not present in the 1850 Census of Connecticut, it follows that the Illinois George Remmington was apparently GNR."

    Addition excerpt from posting by Randal W. Cooper:
    "More information has come to light, regarding L. Case's debtor, George Nichols Remington. L. Case was mentioned in a Suffield Bill of Sale dated November 12, 1842. L. Case was said to be a creditor of George N. Remington. The amount owed at that time was $101.18. I have found, through the kind assistance of several researchers, that George N. Remington had moved from Suffield, Connecticut to the city of Peoria, Peoria County, Illinois, by 1850, when he was enumerated in the Federal Census there as George Remmington (two "m.s"). In addition, George N. Rem(m)ington purchased a hotel in Peoria in 1853 and changed its name from the Massasoit House to Remmington House. He sold the hotel in 1856. In 1857, George N. Remington's son Philip Halsey Remington
    entered West Point Military Academy, having obtained his appointment in Illinois. Philip Remington graduated in 1861 and was in the same class
    as George Armstrong Custer. This sheds a little more light on L. Case and his relationship to George N. Remington. I hope to find out when and how George N. Remington paid his debt to L. Case, because that will lead to finding Mr. Remington's departure date to Illinois. If you have any information, please share
    your insights with me." (Case mailing list at Rootsweb, 23 Jan 2003)

    George married Charlotte Lavinia Halsey 24 Sep 1838, Windsor, CT. Charlotte (daughter of Henry Halsey and Laura Wolcott) was born Abt 1822. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    In the 1860 Federal Census, Dexter F. Remington is age 14.

  10. 29.  Garrett Remington Descendancy chart to this point (14.Benjamin3, 7.Benjamin2, 1.Benjamin1) was born Abt 1835, CT.

    Notes:

    The only Garrett Remington I can find in the census records after 1850 is in New York State in 1880, 1920, & 1920. However, the age is five to six years off, and the state of birth is given as NY. It may be the same individual, though.

    In 1880 Garrett Remington, 38 NY, is living at Villenova, Chautauqua Co., NY. He has a wife, Augusta, age 34.

    In 1910 Garret P. Remington, 69 NY, is living at Villenova, Chautauqua Co., NY. He has a second wife, Ellen A., 70, NY. They have been married 0 years. In 1920 Garret P. & Ellen A. Remington, ages 78 & 84, are living at Dayton, Cattaraugus Co., NY.

    Again, I am not sure this is the same Garret Remington as the son of Benjamin & Hannah.
