William and Hannah
(Carter) Green
"William was of Charlestown, 1640, and a subscriber that year to
"Town Orders" for Woburn, and among it earliest inhabitants. He was made
freeman 1644. By his wife Hannah, he had: 1) Mary, born 20 Jan 1644, 2)
Hannah, born 7 Feb 1646-7, married to... (** Note, at this point Sewall
says Hannah was married to Joseph Richardson, which we now know is in error.
Thos. Knowlton signed a receipt showing he was the husband of William's
Hannah. Joseph Richardson married the Hannah Green, dau of Thomas Green
of Malden **), 3) John, b 11 Oct 1649, 4) William, b 22 Oct 1651.
William Green, sen., died 7 Jan 1653-4. By him, or by one of his
sons, was probably own(er of) the lost in the centre of Burlington known
as the Green Lot; and the ruins of the house once attached to it are still
to be seen.
John Green, a brother, probably, of the above William, taxed with
him at Woburn in 1645; but was not taxed there in 1646, and seems to have
soon left the town."

& Lunt, 1868, Pg 615-6.
LEFT KIDS AS ORPHANS. With the kids
dob from 1644 - 1653, and he dying in 1654 and wife at least by 1659 (one
source in 1657), kids would have been 15-6 when mom died.

John and Sarah
(Bateman) Green
"John (Green), son of the above William Green (see sketch entered in
William's notes), married 3 July, 1671, Sarah, daughter of John Bateman,
of Boston; by whom he had: 1) Sarah, born 6 June, 1672; 2) Samuel, b 29
Jan 1673-4; 3) John, b 6 Jan 1676-7; 4) Hannah, b 4 March 1679.
He was taxed in a Town Rate, 22 Dec 1679; and in 1680 he was numbered
among those who were appointed by the Selectmen, 5 July, to be under the
inspection of Sergeant Matthew Johnson, tythingman. But in a tax made for
the minister for 1687 his name does not occur; whence it is concluded,
that at the last mentioned date he was dead, or removed from the town."
