William Green was born August 10, 1797 in Virginia. He was the son of John and Rhuhama Green who emigrated to Ohio and were among the first settlers in Fairfield County. Rebecca McBride was born March 29, 1799 in Berkeley County Virginia and came with her parents to Ohio in 1810 and was united in marriage to William Green in 1817. To this union were born twelve children, namely John Mordecai, Thomas, Josiah, Ephriam Bilderback, Mary, George Patterson, Francis Marion, William Jasper, Isaac Newton, David, Isaiah, and Martha. This family lived in Fairfield and Hocking counties, Ohio.
William and family are in the 1830 Census, Hocking Twp., Fairfield Co., Ohio. William died February 7, 1847 at his home in Hocking County Ohio at the age of 49 after a life of hard drinking. Daughter, Martha stated that William repented on his deathbed. Although Rebecca's life with William was probably difficult they did raise a large family together and the children became decent, honest people in which their parents could take great pride.
