11. The last child of John Green and Jane Kerr, George Sidney Green, was born 2 August 1817, according to family trees that researchers of the Green family have shared with me.[1] None of the family trees assigning George this date of birth cite a source for it. Since the trees stating that George was born 2 August 1817 also have a specific date of birth for his wife Mary Ann Clardy and for all of their children except one, I think it’s possible these birthdates were recorded in a family bible. Mary Ann Clardy’s date of birth, 6 March 1823, is recorded in her father’s family bible, an abstract of which appears on the Ancestry “Hoke-Doerge Family Tree” of gdhoke11, with no information about the whereabouts of the bible. The abstract may not be a complete transcript of this bible record; as it appears on this family tree, it has no information about George S. Green’s date of birth.
