Notes
- Loretta Gregory Gay, a cousin of Glen, reports that he lived in Clovis, New Mexico.
When his first wife Jo died, he moved to one of the southern states. Glen was born in 1921. He appears in the 1930 census with an age of 8, because his 9th birthday was a few days after the census date.

Green, Mattie Wife F W 35 Married at 17 yrs old OK MS TN
Green, Glen Son M W 8 OK TX OK
For some reason for which we have not found records to explain, Taylor and Mattie moved their family to DeQueen, Arkansas, in the Washita mountains along the western border with Oklahoma. George, Glen's older brother, married there in September 1935.
Some time after 1935 and before the 1940 census, Glen's parents moved back to Friona, Texas, along with Glen and his single brother Elmer. Their older brother George had moved near the end of 1935, soon after his marriage in DeQueen in September 1935. The 1940 census reports that George's resdience in 1935 was Rural Parmer County, while the rest of the family are still in DeQueen.

After the death of his spouse Jo, Glenn married the widow of his brother Harry B Green, Dorothea Marion Benger. Note the spelling difference on the Marriage record. I am told by Hugh Green that Dorothea was the original name, but at some point she herself went to court to change the spelling to Dorthea. At the time he married Dorthea, they were in Randall County, Texas. Directory listings report them there for the next three years before he died in late 1992.
