In a message dated 98-10-07 07:31:57 EDT, you write: << I have the rest of our line in a file that I can send if you would like it. I cannot verify beyond John, but after your letter about William, I see in the LEDFORD Census Books on the Families of Haywood County that he is near my family. Do you have these books? If not I will look up names for you I have all that have been written so far. I want to get 1910 as soon as I can. Thanks in advance for any help you might give me. Susie Greene Barkley >> Hi Susie, Great to hear from you! I do recall our correspondence some time ago. I do not have the books you mention, and would love to have anything you have on William Green who died in Haywood County, NC March 2, 1837. I have visited the library in the county seat on one occassion, but did not have the time to realy do any research. I know very little about his son John Green, except a note that he may have gone to Texas to fight in the Revolution in 1836. You are probably aware that there were at least two (2) William Greens that lived in Haywood County, NC at the same time, and the children were apparently named the same. I wonder if we don't have the two families mixed together. My William Green was born February 6, 1762 in Prince Edward County, Virginia, and next appeared in Hillsboro, Orange County, NC in 1779 when he joined the Militia. He married Kezziah Patton in Hillsborough at her parents home January 9, 1781, and their first child, Thomas S. Green was born there October 24, 1781. The family moved to Burke County, NC about 1783 where most of their children were born. William Green moved his family to Haywood County, NC about 1813, but some of his children were married and did not move to Haywood County, NC. I show that your John Green was born about 1783, so he could have been born in Orange County, NC or he could have been born in Burke County, NC. I would love to have any info you have on this John Green. I descend from William Mercer Green, born about 1786 in Burke County, NC, who was the third (3rd.) son of William and Kezziah Patton Green. He married Nancy Porter in Burke County, NC in 1811 and they did move to Haywood County, NC since their son, also named William M. Green was born there in 1829. William Mercer Green moved his family to Carroll County, Georgia about 1830, along with his brother Anderson Green, because of the gold discovery in Indian land by Samuel Hart. William and Nancy Porter Green are both buried near Villa Ricka, Georgia and his mother, Kezziah Patton Green MAY also be buried there. There son, William M. Green came to Texas in about 1850 and married Sophronia Coltharp in about 1853. The couple lived in a small community established by her father near Tyler, Texas where my 89 year old parents live today. Please let me know if I can provide any other data for your search.
