The Marion County Patriot
The Marion County Patriot, No. 35
September 2, 1887
Page Five

Mr. James Green, who lives at Brantley in this county, says both of his 
grandfathers are living and both of them are ninety-one years old.  His 
father’s father lives in this county and is the oldest man in the county.  His 
mother’s father lives in Talbot County and is the oldest man in that county.

NOTES:

James Green was the son of John Green, the son of James
Green (born 1798 in Duplin County, NC.) who was living
in Marion County in the 1880s.  I don't know the date
of his death.


John Green married Martha Alyssum(?) abt 1845 in GA. I
have not found her family or a verification of her
maiden name.  It is most likely that it was her father
living in Talbot County.  There are not Alyssum
families in Marion or Talbot County, so I doubt that
the spelling is correct.

===============
James W. Green, of Marion County, GA, was the son of
James I. Greene. James I. would have been about 91
years old in 1887 as he was born about 1797 or 1798 in
Duplin, NC.   So I believe this is the father that is
mentioned in the email.

James I. Green was married to Sarah ?.  Haven't been
able to find about who her parents were. James I is
listed as one of the early settlers of Marion County.

James W. was married to Lavinder Peebles (m Sept 10,
1852) and Sarah E. Mitchell (m Sept 8, 1859)  He died
in 1864 in the Civil War.  It is believed that he and
Sarah E. had a son named James, but I have not ever
been able to document it.

Is it possible that this James, mentioned in below
email, was the son of Sarah and James W. and the
father's that he mentions are actually his
grandfathers?

OR could the James Green mentioned  have been the son
of John H. and Martha Monk (again, father Monk unknown)
Green (John H. was also a son of James I Green) who was
James L Greene (born about 1847). I don't have much
info on James L. Greene.

Any response on this would sure be appreciated.
