Life History

Notes

• Our first indication of Nann Green as daughter of Henry Green and Nancy Elizabeth Reeves came from an old One World Tree genealogy that, as so many of the early resources, had no doumentation.  She appears to be the second child of the couple.  Nann is a nickname for Nancy.  Nancy Green is a fairly common name in western North Carolina in the 1800s.
  
  --------------------------
  Information on Nann Green is very elusive.  One marriage record looks like her, a marriage bond record in 1814 for Nathaniel Burge and Nann Green.  But a matching Find a Grave record for her, linked to Nathaniel, reports her as Nancy Green, daughter of Joseph Green and Belesina Twitty in Rutherford County.  One of Nancy and Nathaniel's son was given the middle name Twitty, a testimony to her parentage.
