      Information on the large number of children of John and Abra Remick has been acquired from a variety of sources-- vital records, census records, cemetery records, town histories, etc. There has been much inconsistency in dates of birth and children's names in these records, to the extent that there may even be one child listed here under two different names. The children are listed in the most likely order of their birth, and where conflicts exist, the most logical and consistent date of birth has been entered.
