Notes

At least one genealogy source reports Daniel John's wife as Polly. Polly is a common nickname for Mary, so this probably indicates her initial M reported by most other sources represents the given name Mary. A couple have Mary Polly, combining the full name and the nickname.

Descendant Gary Cruce confirmed that her name was Mary, but reports no maiden name. He also provides a list of the children of Daniel and Mary. He includes several not in older lists for this family. There is also one in the common lists that he does not have, William Bryant Green, born about 1815 in Georgia, according to other sources.

"The (M) stands for Mary. I have my great grandmother's supplemental application. Her name was Fannie Bryant Bruce. Her father was Hardy Bryant. Hardy's mom was Fannie Green, daughter of Daniel Green & Mary Green. There was the name Mashack in the old Green Bible, said William Bryant, brother of Hardy Bryant. They were rejected on their Cherokee blood, but I know they were Cherokee. Fannie Green was born in 1808, had a brother Isaac 1801, John 1804, Thomas 1806, Fannie 1808, Daniel 1810, Elizabeth 1812, Andrew Jackson 1815, Toliver 1817, Enoch 1820, Isona 1823."

----------------------
A couple of genealogies report her full name as Mary Pittman, but provide no documentation. At least one even links to the memorial on Find a Grave for one Mary Moore Pittman (1781-1857), who could not possibly be Daniel Green's wife. She was Mary Moore who married John Green Pittman (1782 - 1873), Mary Moore Pittman died in 1857 in Madison County, Georgia. She and John are buried in the same cemetery. There was no time for her to marry Daniel John Green during this long marriage to John Green Pittman! A little bit of common sense ought to go into this work!

There is a North Carolina marriage record for a Polly Pittman to a John Green in 1819. The time could work, but the place was Craven County, North Caroilna. This is on the east coastal area of North Carolina, while our Greens lived in South Carolnia in areas near the west central border with North Carolina.
