Hi Tom, Not as of yet. I am still waiting for the Tennessee State Library to send me the "Man from Winton", which I ordered in early December. I appreciate their help, but they are so slow. I Ordered the "Tom Green Scrapbook" by Sarah Glenn Riddell from the Texas State Library yesterday and the have already put it in the mail. As for me getting to the library to look up some hunches, this December has not allotted me the time. The reason I was asking about the "Seagull" Family Tree is this. I agree with you about Maj. Gen. Tom Green not being a Descendent of Col. Abraham Green. But I think they were cousins. I have always believed he was related to the Filmer GREEN b. 1743 which married Ann. Though I have no prof. Any and all help is always welcome.
