SIDNEY GREEN was born in May, 1830, being the tenth in a family of twelve
children born to James and Mary (Taylor) Green. William Green was his paternal
and Leonard Taylor his maternal grandfather; the latter was also one of the
pioneer settlers of this State, and a very extensive farmer and salve owner for
his time. James Green was born in Virginia and was almost grown before the
family had left that State. He was married in 1810, and in 1835 became a
resident of Washington County, and continued to live there until his death,
February 11, 1869. He was a true and consistent member of the Baptist Church,
and died a devout believer in its hopes. Sidney Green was born in Madison
County, but reared in Washington County, where he now resides. He remained with
his parents until he attained the age of thirty years, receiving a good English
education. In October, 1860, he was married to Miss Kate Kimberlin, by whom he
is the father of eight children: Lina (wife of Samuel Moore of Sherman, Tex.),
Clifton, Mamie, Lilly, James, Sidney, Kate and William. Mr. Green has always
made farming his vocation, and has been very successful. In politics he has
always been an ardent Democrat, and was honored with a nomination and election
to the office of sheriff of Washington County, for two terms.
