Notes for William Green: William Green, dissatisfied with some new relation in his father's family, left his native land, England, at the early age of twenty, and landed at the port of Philadelphia. Soon after, desirous of returning, and finding no vesselabout to sail from that port, he went to New York, but not meeting with and opportunity immediately, visited Long Island. He there became acquainted with the family of John Reeder, recently arrived from England, whose sister, or daughter, Joanna, in process of time, he married, and moved to Ewing township, about 1700. He purchased 345 acres of Col. Daniel Coxe, the deed bearing the date 1712 and on it erected the first brick house in the township, which is still standing, having on the west end the date, 1717, and is owned and occupied by his descendent of the 5th generation, Henry Green. His qualities were such as to give him distinction, for he was appointed one of the first judges of Hunterdon county, and from the freqquent mention of his name in public affairs and importan business transactions, he was evidently a prominent and useful citizen.
