Hi Melissa and List, I have started a time line (OK...I just started last night), it's very interesting, I even have my daughter helping me. The *most* interesting thing to me is the fact that my family are the only 'GREENS' in Clay Township, Bradley County, AR. You know how you see a 'group' of family names, living next door or down the road a piece (that's how my Grandmother use to say it), well, we are all alone. I'll probably never figure out what made them move to Clay Township by 1870. I know that my GG Grandmother's sister, Pricilla (AKA Puss) married her next door neighbor, William Childs, but the Childs family was in Bradley County in the 1860s. Also, I could have my *time* incorrect. As I look at the 1866 Freedman's Bureau Records, I notice that Puss and Victor (real name is Victoria) are both 8 years old. Puss was born in S. Carolina and Victoria was born in Arkansas. In 1870 Puss is 17, and Victoria is still 8..what's up with those figures? I was basing my year of arrival to Arkansas on Victoria and Puss's age, 1857-58, could be that they weren't even there until 1860 or 61, after W. H. Green purchased his land. I misplaced the 'tax information' that Michelle sent me. She said William H. Green paid taxes on (don't quote me Michelle if your reading this message) 8 slaves. This was in Drew County also. I tell you, it pays to keep information folks take their time out to send you. Everything matters, if people take the time to send it...keep it, you never know. I will let you know about my time line this weekend! Thanks for the Advice! Dena.
