    3. I didn't know there were so many researching Alabama for Greens. So anything I find on Alabama I will post. the parents of Rev. Alexander Littlepage Green, (George and Judith Spilman Green) is reported to have sixteen children and only about four of them has been found. I think George died in Jackson Co. Ala. They lived some in Tenn. Judith Green got a land grant after George died. Then there was the older man age 80 to 90 in Aaron Greens houshold in the 1830 census of Madison Co. Ala. I am sure he must have had several children. This Aaron Green was born about 1804 and married about 1820 (according to children born). Another marriage that could be a connection, John Priest married Nancy Green about 1822. John Priest is the brother to Benjamin Greens wife Mary (Dolly) Priest from Lawrence Co. Ala. John Priest shows up on the Tax record of Madison Co. Tenn. also. Benjamin Green came to Texas and had a son named George W. John and Nancy Priest died before the 1850 census and I believe they raised a son of John and Nancy Priest (William Priest). William Priest was born in Tenn, in the early 1830. James Green who was in the 1850 census of Tyler County Texas was born in Va. In his household was a daughter (Catherine) born in Va. about 1809/10. She never married. James was born about 1785. He died about 1852. I have not been found any other children connected to him. Possibly a Ellis Green may have been a son. James had a young girl in his census (Mary Hooker) whom I think may have been a grandaughter. IN later census Catherine was referred to as "AUNT" to Mary. Robert Hooker married Ann Green in Lawrence Co. Ala. and came to Texas about 1838. They may have died because I haven't been able to find them in the 1850 census. So possibly Ann Green may have been a daughter of James Green. James Green is a mystery. So little do we know about him. I haven't been able to find a probate or any records like that on him. He is not listed in the land indices of Tyler Co. Texas. Could he have left a WILL in another state? Mell
