COTTON W. GREEN.

The names of Green and Drake have always been prominent among the families
in town. William Green married Harriett Drake. From their union was born C.
Warren Green, June 25, 1835. He married Caroline Moore, July n, 1857, and
had two children. He enlisted in Company E, First New Hampshire heavy
artillery, and was mustered into service September 5, 1864, as sergeant. He
served with his company until the close of the war, and was mustered out at
Concord in July, 1865. Comrade Green always resided in town, and was a
shoemaker by trade. His exposure while in the Army of the Potomac brought
on a disease of the nervous system, from which he died a few years after
his return home.
