Bill and other listmembers, I have been trying for several years to make a connection between this Joseph Green and my William Greene. They were both about the same age and were in the same area of Tryon/Rutherford County at the same time. Ironically, they both died fairly young about 1770. I received the family chart for Joseph and his wife, Mary McEntire several years ago from another Green-list member, Margaret Green of Waco, TX. I don't know if she is still on the list anymore or not. I will list both my line for William and that of Joseph below. If anyone would like more information, I also have the will for Joseph and will be glad to share any and all information that I have on these two Greens in western North Carolina.
