Notes |
- Timothy Green was born in 1765. He resided in Worcester, Massachusetts with his wife Mary (aka "Polly" or "Serena") before moving to New York City. Green received his education at Rhode Island College (now Brown University) and practiced law in New York City. He predominantly worked in probate law and the settlement of minor financial disputes. Green was a land speculator and engaged in other mercantile affairs, especially with his brothers Samuel Green, who operated a store in Columbia, South Carolina, and Meltiah Green, who settled in Jamaica and died of yellow fever on the Island of St. Bartholomew. In December 1813, Timothy Green became lost at sea while returning from Charleston, South Carolina aboard the pilot boat, the Patriot . Colonel Aaron Burr's daughter, Theodosia was also onboard. Timothy Green's son, Timothy Ruggles Green, inherited the legal practice. Timothy and Mary's other children included Joseph Martin, Mary E., Martha Lynde Mitchell, Caroline Mitchell, and Elizabeth H. Green.
