Now, returning to the chronological narrative of Ezekiel C. Green’s documents following his marriage on 2 September 1835: on 28 March 1836, Ezekiel Calhoun Green bought from William Croghan of Pittsburgh for $1,500 all of Croghan’s holdings on an island in the Ohio River immediately below the junction of the Ohio and Cumberland Rivers, 200 acres that Croghan had obtained through a treasury warrant 27 June 1786.[1] The land was surveyed 18 March 1798 and patented 16 July 1805. Croghan acknowledged the deed in Pittsburgh court on 28 March 1836, and it was recorded in Livingston County on 7 May.
