Life History

Notes

• "I am William L Green (Bill) and 85 years of age.  Marvel Lindsey Green (1814), son of Shadrack and Martha Jones is my great, great, great grandfather.  I have done rather a good bit of research on my ancestors recently and have most all info on Marvel's son's family (Andrew Jackson Green), and Marvel Linzy Green Andrew's son and family.  ... and was acquainted with many of the extended family who are now buried in Sunnyside Cemetery Sorento IL.  My father was Lloyd Lionel Green Sr (1899), the only child of Marvel Linzy and Mary Margaret (Kelly) Green."
