Hi Rod, I don't mind at all. I will look and see if I can find anything I will be searching the name Green anyway. I just wanted to make sure I have it right. Did you mean that his father's name is Harry Henry Green(e)? or Harry or Henry? Dawn

Another Edward Green was baptized as an adult 23 Sept 1716 and banns were published 1 Nov 1716. Baptized as adult son of Edward Green. Is this one Martha's brohter? The third E.G. is listed as Justice of the Peace 3 Feb 1685 under Gov. Fletcher. Listed on deed dated 1675 in the "NW part of the Hundred." What is the relationship of these 3 Edward Greens? Any information on Martha's mother? Would be glad to exchange anything I can! Dusti (catsmeow@aztec.asu.edu) --
While searching the web for information about Catalina Island for another lister, I found a great site called "Find a Grave." I first typed in a name without much success, then read the directions. (on the box) It suggested initials be typed in. I typed in C P and every one listed with those initials came up. A famous stagecoach driver, movie stars, inventors, Procter of Procter and Gamble, Pretty Boy Floyd, Comanche Chief Quanah Parker and many more. I even found my wife's brother-in-law listed. Here is something great, it even shows photos of the grave sites and head stones. A lot of work went into this site! Del http://www.findagrave.com/cemeteries/crcatalina.html
Hello Mary and all who sent info. First thank you to all of you who sent me info on William and Samuel Green of NJ. I just received a letter from my cousin in Arizona stating that he received the papers from the DAR and This William is not my ancestor, so neither is Samuel. My William from Vernon, NJ still remains a mystery. I will keep searching. But thank you for your help, To Mary, The info I posted for Samuel Green I received from a cousin who has access to one of the large LDS libraries. I do not know how accurate it was. I believe some had information that did not have the same children etc. But I hope it helps you. Warmly, Your cousin, Dawn

I am looking for ancestors of John Pierce Green, born 10/10/1873 in the Knoxville, Tenn area. His Father was William Green and his mother was Elizabeth Walker.

I am interested in writing to Mr. George Green in regard Rev. Timothy Greene, my 5th great grandfather. In the Greene Genealogy by Ray Greene Huling, there is a footnote thanking Mr. George Greene from Lansing, Michigan, for giving copious notes on the descendants of Timothy Greene. It is my hope that the two George Greenes are one in the same. If so, I would appreciate hearing from You. Sincerely, MaryLou Finn---MFinn90885@aol.com
Hi Tom, It just adds to the Puzzle. According to the Introduction, written by E.B. Crisman, of this book, "the story is founded on facts in the youth and early manhood of the author's father". I have found this book very interesting but very confusing. F. F. V. does mean First Family of Virginia. It is used throught the book refering to the aristocrats of the erea. When Nat was courting Mary, Mr. McRobson, Mary's guardian, stated "Well, yes; I like him well enough. He appears to be a young man of good sense, and good habits; but you know his father was not one of the first families." This was about 1812. Nat was an Orphans prior to the war of 1812 and Mary was an Infant when Mr. Fielding Died. When Nat was leaving to go to fight in the war of 1812 he had one of his servents, he called Uncle Primus, take care of the farm until he came back. I have a few names I cannot place in Amelia, yet they appear in the Book: Mr. Miller a horse doctor who lived half a mile from the "Grafton Farm" Polly Taylor a cousin of Nat. Simon Witter a teacher whom was considered a gentleman from Maryland. Harry Preston a friend of Nat and a F. F. V. whom also favored Mary. Mr. McRobson Mary's Guardian and her Uncle. Lorenzo Dow a preacher belonging to the Methodist Church. Does any one know more about these people?
