  • Notes: 

  • Some sources state that Thomas Greene's wife was Elizabeth Barton, daughter of Rufus and Margaret Barton. Robert Charles Anderson makes an argument that this is incorrect in his book The Great Migration: Immigrants to New England 1634-1635, Vol. III G-H under the entry for John Greene on pages 147 and 148.
