Green married Carrie Barrett. They had at least two sons, Edward Lamar Green born about 1907 and J. C. (?) Green. Edward married Minnie Bossenberry February 16, 1929 in Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan. His brother married Jeannette Bossenberry, Minnie's sister, most likely in Detroit. I'd appreciate any help. I know the brothers were born in Meridian and the sisters were born in Canada. I have much on the Bossenberry side but nothing on the Green side.

His first wife was Sally Ann Knight, sister of Jeff and Tommy Knight of Neshoba County. Grandpa had a brother Joseph who also lived in Lauderdale County. I do not know just how but I know there is a connection between these families. If you figure it out, please let me hear from you. There is also a connection to the Jones family that I am not familiar with. I think Josephine Riche was my grandfather's sister.

Hi Cheryl, According to the MS Cities/Towns List, there is a Chunky in Lauderdale County. And there was an extinct town named Chunkeyville (with an e) in Lauderdale County. There's also a Chunky and a Chunkey's Station in Newton County. (clickable) MS County Map & Cities/Towns List: http://www.rootsweb.com/~msctlist/ct-map.htm There's a Chunkey on this 1895 map.

However, Daniel had a sister named Permelia Anders Boone. Additionally, Patrick and Permelia had children with names remarkedly similar to our family tree. Daniel had a son, Llewellyn Partin who is my husband, Llewellyn's g-grandfather. Further, Daniel named another son, Basil. Llewellyn is just not that common and what with the town of birth being the same as is the time of birth, I think there is a link here. Do you have any information? I have estate information on Shadrack, church records for Daniel, Jincy Riley (his wife), Llewellyn and Basil (sons) and Mary Boone Sunday King (Shadrack's wife). Lesley@bee.net
