    1. [GREEN-L] John Greene the Surg. people
    2. Jo Orvik
    3. Hi again Brenda, I'm posting this to list in case anyone else is interested. Looked up some Greenes and will put them in your history chart below. The book uses a lot of shortened words so I will put in what I think they are. There seems to be some real problems with the date of Thomas's birth. The info about John says his son Thomas was born in 1631, you have 1628 and the info from the book says he died in 1717 at age 76 which would mean a birth year of 1641. I will let you and others decide what is right since I haven't researched for myself.
