THE GREENE FAMILY of ST. ALBANS, VERMONT Together with the Origin and the History of the Greene Family in England and Rhode Island THE GREENE FAMILY of ST. ALBANS, VERMONT together with the origin and the history of the Greene Family in England and Rhode Island by Walter and Ella Greene 1964 Copyright 1964 by Walter and Ella Greene PREFACE To forget one's ancestors is to be a brook without a source, a tree without a root. - - Chinese Proverb Some years ago the authors discovered that the genealogy of our branch of the Greene family had been compiled to about the year 1800. This work was then conceived as a small pamphlet which would bring the record up to the present generation for our immediate family. In searching for data, we contacted many related branches of the family. We were encouraged by those with whom we talked to believe that interest in our endeavor reached beyond our own family. The information we gathered increased in volume to the point where we decided it should be preserved per­ manently in book form and that it should include a summary of information from earlier genealogies which are now out of print and practically unobtain­ able, except in large libraries and historical society collections. This work includes names and pertinent dates for the Vermont Greenes which were supplied to us by interested members of the present generation, supplemented by our own searches in genealogies and vital records. It is sufficiently complete, we believe, so that present (and future} generations not now included in the book can trace back their own lines to where they join that of Nathan, Job, or Caleb Greene, and from them to our common ances - tors in Rhode Island and England, Our sincere thanks to all who assisted us by supplying information and checking sections of the manuscript on the accuracy of the data for the vari­ ous branches of the family. Our gratitude and appreciation also to the local and state historical societies and libraries, without whose dedicated stewardship of the records of past generations, this work would not have been possible. Walter and Ella Greene November 1, 1964 1833 Nott Street Schenectady, New York iii CONTENTS This is the story of two Vermont pioneers, their ancestors and their descendants. NATHAN and JOB GREENE were among the original settlers of St. Albans, Vermont, in 1786. They were the fifth generation descended from JOHN GREENE OF QUIDNESSETT (or Kings­ town), Rhode Island, who, in turn, is reported to have been the fifth generation descended from ROBERT GREENE OF GILLINGHAM, England, a descendant of SIR HENRY GREENE, Lord Chief-Justice of England in 1361. A number of books and articles relating to the English ancestry of various branches of the Greene family - and the critical reviews of these same writings - were studied. Chapter I tells the story of our English ancestry as we deduce it from the evidence pre­ sented by different writers. Considerable information about the four generations who lived in Rhode Island is available, but it is scattered throughout numerous journal articles, histories, and several genealogies. In Chapters II and III, we have attempted to bring together in one connected story the various pieces of information appearing elsewhere. The accounts of different authors were compared and where differences were found to exist, every effort was made to check back into original records so that the account as presented here represents as accurate an interpretation of the evidence as it has been possible for us to secure. The story as given here for Nathan and Job Greene and their descendants (Chapters IV through XX) has been authenticated through searches in town hall records, family Bibles, cemetery inscriptions, newspaper articles, etc. An effort has been made to have a living descendant verify the statements. for each separate branch of the family.

Capital Roman numerals indicate number assigned to FAMILIES. These have been numbered consecutively as they appear in the text. B. Lower-case Roman numerals indicate CHILDREN of a particular family. C. Arabic numbers indicate GRANDCHILDREN of a par­ ticular family when this family line is carried out no farther in the genealogy. D. Arabic numbers in raised position following the name of an ancestor indicate GENERATION. None of these exceed number fifteen. E. Chapter One, "The Greene Family in England," is considered an introductory chapter to the main text. Numbering of individuals and families in this chapter does not follow the same pattern as described above for the rest of the text. This was done because it was desired to number the immigrant ancestor to this country as the first generation in this genealogy. F. Arabic numbers in raised position are used in the text also to refer to the BIBLIOGRAPHY but cannot be confused with generation numbers as they begin with number 101. G. BIBLIOGRAPHY has been divided into five sections: 1. Genealogies - numbered 101, 102, etc. 2. Period in England - numbered 201, 202, etc. 3. Period in Rhode Island - numbered 301, 302, etc. 4. Transition Period from Rhode Island to Vermont - numbered 401, 402, etc. 5. Period in Vermont - numbered 501, 502, etc. H. Names in capital letters indicate LINEAL descendants. Names ~derlined indicate families with whom they intermarried.

  • Samuell Gorton Influenced the Development of Quakerism, Or Whether Instead Quakerism Influenced the Development of Gortonism
    SAMUEL GORTON Recently there has been on the internet an influence argument having to do with whether in the 17th Century Samuell Gorton influenced the development of Quakerism, or whether instead Quakerism influenced the development of Gortonism. This argument has evidently been mounted by proud descendants of Gorton and facilitated by genealogists. To track this, you can consider the following three articles: PERUSE A 1934 STUDY PERUSE A 1979 STUDY PERUSE A 1983 STUDY I do not myself find anything which would indicate that Samuell Gorton had any influence whatever over the development of Quakerism. Indeed, the impression which I bring away from this reading is that Mr. Gorton of Warwick, Rhode Island was your usual sort of fundie panjandrum preacherman (a phenomenon with which we of the 21st Century are even now all too familiar), establishing his own little church with his own little flock as the venue within which he might play the role of Supreme Pontiff, as a sort of personality cult: “I listen to the Inward Christ, while you listen to me.” This man was a Reverend Jim Jones character if he was anything — “You need to drink this grape Kool-Aid.” It would amaze me to discover that any Quakers of the 17th Century were interested in reducing themselves to being merely such a man’s camp followers. It would seem to me that it is one of the foundation stones of Quakerism, that we do not embrace such religious leadership — that this is a grape Kool- Aid which we always decline. (Of course, I also consider that it was rather wrongheaded for the Puritans to come down into Rhode Island and arrest him and keep him in leg shackles in Charlestown, and come within a skosh of hanging him.

But once the English merchant companies decided to The Sachem Nanepashemet establish permanent settlements in the early 17th century, Sagamore John - English Puritans who believed the land belonged to their king Wonohaquaham and held a charter from that king empowering them to colonize The Squaw Sachem began arriving to establish the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

The two Wenepoykin peoples were allies, perhaps uneasy and suspicious, but they Visits to Winchester were people who learned from and helped each other. There Memorials & Relics were kindnesses on both sides, but there were also animosities and acts of violence. Ultimately, since the English leaders wanted to take over the land, co- existence failed. Many sachems (the native leaders), including the chief of what became Winchester, deeded land to the Europeans and their people were forced to leave.

  • State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations at the End of the Century
    SAMUEL GORTON AND THB FOUNDING OP WABWICK. ~'1 While the Newport idea tended toward conservatism in public affairs, the Providence principle injected conaiderable vitality into political 888emblies. If a "vigorous political life", as was once re­ marked, could save a colony from Umental atrophy", then Rhode Island's future was insured forever. CHAPTER V. SAMUEL GORTON AND THE FOUNDING OF WARWICK. The third settleJnent instituted within the borders of the future Rhode Island was Warwick, founded by Samuel Gorton and his follow­ ers. IJike the t,,'o preceding settlements, it was primarily formed through stress of circumstances-the disinclination of the Puritan magistrates to tolerate certain views far too advanced for their narrow minds. It was a community, moreover, whose earliest history cen­ t.ered closely about the person and fortune of a single man. This man, who, through his peculiar political and religious opinions and his pertinacity in stating them, has been 888ailed with much undeserved abuse, was Samuel Gorton.1 The story of his life must be briefly told. Arriving at BORton in March, 1637, at the age of forty-four, he found that colony in the throes of the Antinomian controversy. He must have soon observed that this austere commonwealth was no place for liberal thinkers, for we find him two months later removed to Ply­ mouth, where he ,c gave hopes of proving an useful instrument". But little by little, the narrative runs, 'c he discovered himself to be a proud and pestilential seducer, and deeply leavened with blasphemous and familistical opinions".1 At last the Plymouth magistrates became 'For the chief accounts of Gorton, see under Blol1raphfl and Wartolc7c In Bibliography at end of last 'Volume.
