'A Look at Men with Green Surname Who Lived in Tyler, Limestone, McLennan, and Hill Counties of Texas before and after 1850'
...Benjamin Green, Sr., (about 1793 Virginia-after November 1850) was born in Virginia. Benjamin Green was named on the Tyler County, Republic of Texas, poll payers in 1846. On 21 May 1849, the court of Tyler County ordered 'Benjamin Green's hands and sons' to work on the 'road from the town of Woodville to Russell Creek, at the crossing of the Patrick Ferry Road near Benjamin Green's.' On 16 November 1850, Benjamin Green, Sr., was listed as a farmer in Tyler County, Texas, with property valued at $2,200. His wife, Mary (about 1797 Kentucky-after November 1850) was age 53. Green children who yet lived at home were born in Alabama. They were George W. Green, age 18, William L. Green, age 17, Mary J. Green, age 16, and Rachel M. Green, age 12. Also listed in the Green household were William Priest, age 22 and born in Tennessee, and Benjamin Summons, age 1 and born in Texas. Benjamin Summons' surname may be misspelled. Benjamin Summons or Summers may have been a son of Margaret Green, who married H. C. G. Summers on 21 November 1847 in Tyler County, Texas. Mary J. Green married David Coopwood on 19 August 1852 in Tyler County, Texas.
By the summer of 1860, Benjamin Green, Sr. (1794 Virginia-unknown) and his wife Mary Green (1797 Kentucky-unknown) lived next farm to James Green and near the farm of John Green. He valued his personal property at $4,500.
