Hello, I have just recently found marriage entry in the Shelburne Vital Records for Lury Bidgood and Asa Smith for August 15, 1807, Shelburne, Chittenden, Vermont. Shelburne [VT] Town Clerk, _Town and Vital Records, 1787-1883_ (Salt Lake City : Filmed by the Genealogical Society of Utah, 19__, [Microfilm #0028869],Page: Item 1, p. 37. Since then I've looked for info on Lury's parents, Remington and Affa Humphrey/Humphries Bidgood and on her brothers Remington and Marcus Bidgood. Lots posted on the internet, but it mostly dead ends with Affa and with Remington's father John. Hope you kind folks can provide me with more details. I've tracked them from Vermont to Clinton County, New York on the 1850 census. Lury is living apart, with her two youngest sons and rather bluntly labeled 'insane' by the census. Asa is living nearby with Reuben W Smith, one of their sons and on the next census page, my great great grandfather Ira B Smith with his wife Rosella. On a page nearby my great great grandfather Royal Smith, age 16, is living with Remington Bidgood (Age 37) M432-489-89 1850 Clinton, Clinton, New York Line 35 Household #79 Family #81 Remington Bidgood 37 Male Farmer Vermont Mary F " 28 Female --- Canada James H " 5 Male --- New York John DeW " 3 Male --- New York Royal Smith 16 Male Laborer New York This enumeration is dated October 28, 1850 I would love to hear from others researching the Remington descendants (And ancestors) Ellan Seattle
