When he was about 16 he went to South Carolina and enlisted at Cherokee Ponds, SC, June or July 1781. 4. He was engaged in "harassing the tories" for 12 months. 5. After the Revolution he went to Rutherford County (formerly part of old Tryon County, NC) where he married---no details about marriage. 6. He was allowed a pension on his application executed 28 October 1832, while living in Burke County, NC; he was age 70. 7. He died 2 June 1853 in Madison County, NC, leaving no widow, but there were five children surviving in 1856. 8. In 1856 John"s son, James, wrote applying for an increase in the pension allowed his survivors. James lists the children living as; Joseph, James, Arthur, Aaron and Izabella. 9. Additional information in John's pension file is a letter from a Miss Huston of North Carolina, asking for information on a John Moccsin Green whose children were Shadric, James, Joseph, Aaron, Arthur and two daughters, both named Isabella, one dead. Miss Huston said John Green's wife was Elizabeth Jones. ______________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ In the 1840 census of Yancey County, John Green is living in the house of James Buchanan.

Elizabeth was the daughter of Robert and Chaney Elrod Greene and a cousin of George W. Greene. G. W. and J. H Greene must have thought that there was only on John Green. ______________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ On your list of Children of John Green and Elizabeth Coffey--- I do not think Jesse Green who's wife was Mourning______was a son of John and Elizabeth Green. On Cherokee County census Jesse is shown as being born in some other county than Burke. There seems to be a son of John that I have not been able to identify. Eleanor married Isaac Moody and moved to Cherokee County. I think John, son of Richard, is the " John Moccasin Green", because just recently I found a Caldwell County Deed where one of Elijah' grandsons was selling some land in the Globe area and the deed refers to "Grandaddy Moccasin Creek". I took the "Grandaddy Moccasin" to mean a person rather than a big snake. (I can't find my copy of the deed now, but will give more on it when I find my copy.) I hope this does not create more problems than it solves. Ed --part0_916618652_boundary--

To Tom Green, Ron Greene, John Hawkins and all knowing about descendants of John "Moccasin" Green. Tom, I noted a reply you wrote to Rosemary naming the children of John "Moccasin" Green 1. Nathan Green 2. James Green born about 1799. 3. Elijah Green, etc. etc. The object of my search is another Nathan Green, born 1822. One record I have says his parents are James Green and Jan ??? This Nathan Green, my gr grandfather, would be the right age to be a son of James Green, born about 1799. Since you didn't list a wife for the above James Green perhaps you don't know about his wife or children. Maybe someone else knows if James had a son Nathan. Nathan Green came to Indiana and married Charlotte Woolf Ely, having up to 16 children. The ones I have located are: Andrew M, born about 1859 William M, born about 1861 Elcanah, born about 1862 Elijah A, born February 06, 1863 Mary A, born about 1865 Armanda, born about 1866 Anna L, born July 04, 1867 Marion M, born November 28, 1868 John D, born July 4, 1869, my grandfather Viola F, born November 10, 1871 I know these are common names for the period but there is alot of duplication in these families, John, Nathan, Elijah, William, Thomas, etc. Would sure like to hear if anyone knows if James had a son namedNathan. TIA Harold Wayne Green greenealogy@worldnet.att.net

Hi -- The name Jehiel is interesting ... I just discovered that Charles Green and Tirzah Adams Green of Hope/Knowlton Township, Warren Co., N.J., had living with them in the 1850 census a boy named Jehiel, aged 20. I suspect he was their son because, according to researchers of the New Jersey Samuel Thomas Green, Charles and his wife had eight children. Matilda Green, who married Jacob Brands, was one of them. Her eldest grandson was named Jehiel Brands. The 1850 census says Charles Green, 67, farmer, owned property valued at $5,000. His wife, Tirzah, was 49. Also living in the household were Matilda Brands, 29, Jehiel Green, 20, Margaret Green, 12, and Hulda Green, 10. If anyone knows more, let me know. I'm particularly interested in finding out who Tirzah's parents were. Sandy

Hello Green/Greene Researchers: Please visit my website ("The Samuel Thomas Greene Genealogical Page") at http://www.cgocable.net/~ccarbin/greene.html It has a list of many Greene families. If you are related and/or have some information, please do not hesitate to let me know. All the best to you in 1999! Clifton F. Carbin

In a message dated 99-01-17 08:18:07 EST, you write: << I cannot comment on the three additional children mentioned by Ron, except to say that the John Green of Mitchell County was married to Isabella Jones, which suggests to me that the Isabella who married James Buchanan might be in their family. Since another one of the three (Aaron) married a Buchanan it suggests that brother and sister may have married brother and sister. Perhaps someone might pinpoint the location of the Buchanans to see if they are in the same area with one of the John Greens. The same thing might be applied to the Sparks family to see if which Green Nancy Sparks might have married. Thanks for the info. I hope I haven't confused the situtation more. John Hawkins >> Hi John, You never confuse the situtation, but instead always add to what I know about the family. I always look forward to your messages, and always gain knowledge from them. Thanks from all of us, Tom Green

I also replied directly to the person who had asked about John "Moccasin" Green(e) with the info I had. Tom, I didn't compare your list of children to mine, but I do know we have some of the same ones. Ron, I don't have the three additional that you show so I'm forwarding your letter on to Edwin Greene who is THE authority of the Jersey settlement Greenes and the source of my information. Maybe he will reply himself. Here is what I have: John Green (called "Moccasin John"), born about 1772 , married about 1796n to Eliabeth Coffey, bonr about1781, daughter of Reuben Coffey and Sarah (Scott). He is on the 1840 Burke County (NC) Tax List but is not on the 1841 Caldwell County (NC) Tax List, the first taken when the new county was formed. Several of his children left Burke County and are found in Cherokee County, NC, in 1840. Apparently John and Elizabeth did not live together in their last years as she is found in Cherokee County, NC, with some of her children in the 1850 census. Her death date is not known. When Hannah Green applied for a Widow's Pension on 16 June 1850 on the service of John Green, there is a statement that a John Green, nephew of the groom, attended the infare, the day after the wedding at the home of the groom's father. The John Green, nephew, would have to be the son of Richard and Eleanor, and he would still be living at the time she applied for the pension. Many legendary stories have been attributed to a "Moccasin" John Green. Some of the stories indicate that John, who is the son of Jeremiah and Hannah (and the husband of the Hannah of the Widow's Pension), others that John, son of Richard and Eleanor is the one called "Moccasin." Still others indicate that John Greene of Mitchell County, NC, is "Moccasin" John. The factual information available about this last John seems to indicate that the researchers have confused all three men. The John Green, Revolutionary War veteran, who died in Mitchell County, NC, about 1852, does not seem to be a part of the family of Jeremiah Green of the Jersey settlement. Children of John and Elizabeth: James, born about 1799. Elijah, born 4 November 1800, married Mary Moody. Abel , born about 1802, married Mary Gragg. Amos, born 29 April 1804, married Cena Estes. Nancy, born about 1806, married James Coffey. Sarah, born about 1808, married William Coffey. Silas, born about 1810, married Susan _______. Daniel, born about 1814, married Eleanor _________. Jesse, born about 1815, married Mourning ________. Eleanor, born about 1818, married _______ Moody. Thomas, born about 1823, married Sarah _______.

I'm sure that many of the contributors (56+) have updated their personal gedcoms. Some of my GREEN/GREENE data is certainly old/stale/outdated/incorrect. I would welcome updated gedcoms.

Hi Tom, I saw your reply to Rosemary regarding the children of John "Moccasin' Green(e). My files pretty much agree with what you posted except: 1. I show Nathan Green(e) b. 1800; d. 1840; as the son of Jeremiah Green(e) & Mary "Polly' Wiseman. 2. I show 3 additional children for John "Moccasin" that you don't show: Aaron Green(e); b. abt. 1801; n. Annie Buchanan. Isabella Green(e); b. August 17, 1803; d. February 20, 1874 in Burke Co, NC; m. James Buchanan. Arthur Green(e); b. abt. 1797 in Watauga Co, NC; d. April 22, 1882 in Bear Creek, NC; m. Nancy Sparks abt. 1819; b. February 2, 1802; d. 1877. Maybe John Hawkins or another researcher will weight in and straighten us out on this family. I'm pretty sure that, info I saw from John Hawkins, indicates that Nathan is not the son of John :Moccasin. As for the 3 children that I have that you don't, I lack any documentation. If you indicate their parentage elsewhere, please let me know. I sure wish I had started keeping good documentation earlier in my research. Ron Greene RGreene431@aol.com

Brian: Thanks for all the information! I'm still trying to sort through it. I live about 20 miles from Niagara Falls in Canada. Because I've just begun trying to trace the family tree, I recently visited Niagara Falls to try to find the gravestone and marker my great-grandmother Fanny Louise Green had told my father about. I found it, and it is a huge boulder with a plaque attached which reads as follows: Charles Green 1740 - 1827 United Empire Loyalist "If the Captain wants me he may come himself and if he does I will shoot him." With these words, Charles Green refused induction into the N. Jersey Rebel militia. Imprisoned, he escaped and joined the "King's Rangers," a Loyalist unit. He "suffered very considerably, both in person and property." At war's end he walked from N. Jersey leading his wife and two children on horseback. His wife Rebekah, buried next to him, gave birth eight days later to a daughter, the first white child born on the frontier. He donated these lands, part of a grant from George III, to the Methodist Church. In the Niagara Falls Museum I found the original gravestone of this child(a new one replaces it at the grave) with the following inscription: In Memory of Rebecca Green Biggar Died Oct. 8, 1880 In her 94th Year The first white child born on the Niagara Frontier. Her parents came from New Jersey walking all the way to Benders' farm where she was born Sept. 26, 1786, 8 days after. Her parents were buried out at Lundy's Lane schoolhouse yard. They were U.E.L. By the way, this week we were really snowed under. The piles of snow on either side of our driveway are over six feet high. Wendy Standish

Eleanor Green born about 1815. 12. Thomas Green born about 1823, married Sarah ( ? ). To my knowledge, it has not been proven that John "Moccasin" Green born about 1772, was the son of Richard Green, born about 1740, who married Eleanor Sullivan in about 1796, but that is how I have entered him in my computer. I do show that Richard Green was the son of Jeremiah Green, born about 1705 in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, and his wife Joanna "Hannah" Hunt who died in 1789. This Jeremiah Green was the son of Judge William Green, born about 1671 in England, and his wife Joanna Reeder who he married in 1692, and Jeremiah was the one that came to North Carolina and settled in what was then called Jersey Settlement on the Yadkin River. Judge William Green built the first brick home in the area in about 1717, and the home still stands on the campus of Trenton College. Judge William Green died June 16, 1722 and his grave in marked and known today. I hope this helps you in come way. Good Luck in your search! Tom Green

Hi! I just rec'd this URL for a site that has listings for military servicemen and photos available to order...I tries it and it appears tohave real possibilities~! Civil War veterans, Mexican War veterans...and the more recent wars' vets, I understand, are available in the same index...Hope it helps! Happy hunting !!
