Prof E.R.R. Green was an academic at Queens (University Belfast) who pioneered a lot of industrial radiological work. He was known at Queens in the 1960s as "Lagan Valley Green" after his 1949 work, the Lagan Valley river flows through Belfast, not to be confused with the Laggan in Donegal. (Until I checked I hadn't realised that it was that old.) ISTR that his son gave a lot of his papers to the PRO Green edited the first edition of Essays in Scotch-Irish History. So presumably the letter comes from that time and there may be something about it in the book (Google Amazon) The letter mentions Desertmartin, which is in Co London/derry, so it is not unlikely that we are talking about North Tyrone.
