GREEN SAMUEL, 2d, son of Dr. Thomas (sometimes called "Captain," as he was at one time in command of the military company of the town, but more generally known as " Deacon"), m. Zerviah Dana of Ashford, Conn., for his first wife, and a Mrs. Fisk of Sturbridge for his second. His children were Samuel, 3d, b. November, 1757. Elijah, b. May 3, 1760; entered the service in the Revolutionary War; joined the army at Roxbury; and died in camp, December, 1775, at the age of fifteen.
Capt. Green was the one appointed to notify the company of minute-men in case of alarm; and did so on the 19th April, 1775, as stated in this work. He accompanied his son when he joined the army at Roxbury, and remained in that vicinity till his death. In 1777, he represented the town with Col. Washburn in the General Court. He was deacon of the Baptist Church for more than fifty years, and one of the main pillars of the society. After the removal of Dr. Foster, he had charge of' and supplied the pulpit until a successor was appointed. He lived in the house built by his grandfather, opposite the Meeting-house in Greenville. He died Feb. 20, 1811, at the age of eighty-four; and his wife, June 28, 1797, aged sixty-five.
GREEN, ISAAC, son of Dr. Thomas, was a physician, and is noticed in another part of this work. He m. Sarah Howe, and had Sarah and Mary.
GREEN, THOMAS, 2d, son of Dr. Thomas, m. Hannah Fox, and afterwards Anna Hovey of Sutton; and had Elias, b. Jan. 25, 1756; he m. Mary in 1782, and removed to Cambridge, Vt. Thomas, b. 1757: he became a physician, and lived in Auburn, then Ward; d. 1812, aged fifty-five. Isaac, b. 1759; was also a physician; was in the Revolutionary service; and removed to Windsor, Vt., in 1788. He m. Ann Barrett, and became a wealthy and influential citizen of that town. Abiathar, b. 1760: he, too, was in the service in the Revolution; he removed to Farmington, Me.; d. 1831, aged seventy-one. Asa. Hannah C. m. Howard Putnam. John and Rebekah, twins. Daniel, b. 1778; is a physician in Auburn.
The father was a farmer, though not a very thrifty one. He once owned the farm, in the south part of the town, where Elijah Thayer formerly lived. After that, he lived in various places, and, at one time, in the house that stood on Flip Lane. He died in Auburn, October, 1813, aged eighty.
GREEN, WILLIAM, 1st, was b. in Malden in 1683. His father was cousin of Capt. Samuel. He m. Sarah Sprague, a branch of the same family which settled in Leicester; and had Mary, b. 1710. Sarah, b. Sept. 13, 1711; m. Hezekiah Ward, Esq., of Leicester, 1737. Hepzibah, b. June 13, 1714. William, b. July 6, 1716. Israel, b. 1721. Charles, b. 1724. Nahum, b. 1729. Mary, b. 1731.
Mr. Green removed to Leicester about 1719 or'20. He purchased Lot No. 36, and must have built the house thereon, recently occupied by the late John King, Esq. At the first recorded town-meeting, he was elected a tithing-man; then an office of consequence, especially in the matter of Sunday police. He held sundry other offices of trust in the town. He d. subsequently to 1755. The mother of Mr. Green m. Capt. John Lynde of Leicester for her second husband.
GREEN, NATHANIEL, brother of the above, was b. in Malden, 1689; and m. Elizabeth Sprague, sister of the wife of his brother. He lived in Stoneham previous to his removal to Leicester in 1723. Their children were Elizabeth, b. 1714; m. Benjamin Saunderson of Leicester, 1737. Winnifred, b. 1716; m. Benjamin Baldwin of Leicester, 1749. Nathaniel, b. 1721. Mehitabel, b. 1724; m. Samuel Call of Leicester, 1746. Phinehas, b. 1728. Benjamin, b. 1731. Mr. Green was captain " of the first foot company in Leicester" in 1743. I copy from the work of Mr. Green, of which I have made liberal use in these genealogies, an order addressed to Capt. Green; which shows that it was no holiday matter to command a military company at that time. The conquest of Louisburg took place in 1745. The next year, the whole of New England was alarmed by the intelligence, that an immense armament had reached Nova Scotia from France, on its way to attack the Colonies, and destroy Boston. This led to the following order from Col. Chandler:
" SIR, - This moment I received the Governor's express; and, pursuant thereto, you are required, in his majesty's name, on your utmost peril, to draw out of your military ward twenty-five men, completely armed, and furnished with ammunition and fourteen days' provision, and march them, without the least delay, to Worcester, and from thence to Boston; a French invasion being every moment expected. I say, Fail at your peril! "JOHN CHANDLER, C0ol. "WORCESTER, SEPT. 22, 1746. "Either you or Capt. Whittemore, with two more commissioned officers, must go; and don't fail. " In his Majesty's service, Capt. NATHANIEL GREEN, in Leicester." Capt. Green d. Sept. 27, 1774.
GREEN, NATHANIEL, son of the above, was b. in Stoneham; came to Leicester, with his father, in 1723; m1. Tabitha Prentice; and had Lemuel, b. 1.749; lived in Spencer. Susannah, b. 1751. Tabitha, b. 1753. Nathaniel, b. 1755. Lydia, b. 1758. John, b. 1760; was a minister in Coleraine, and d. 1800. Rufus, b. 1762; went to Calais, Vt.; d. 1844. Mary, b. 1764. Chloe, b. 1766; m. Adams Wheelock. Ebenezer, b. 1769; removed to Belchertown; d. 1848. This Mr. Green was known as "the Rev.;" having been ordained as a Baptist minister after he was forty-three years old. In the latter part of his life, he removed to Charlton; where he d., 1791, at the age of seventy.

Mary, 1770. He d. in 1776, at the age of forty-seven. He is spoken of as a'" teacher of penmanship." There was a Phinehas Green, jun., in the same company with the above, at the battle of Bunker Hill; but I am unable to ascertain his parentage.

Asa Mann; removed to Canada West, and d. there. Mr. Green lived in the house next west of the mills in Greenville, and once kept a tavern there. He removed late in life to Pembroke, N.Y.; and d. there, 1832, at the age of seventy-four.
GREEN, WILLIAM, son of William, 1st, m. Rebecca Tucker of Milton, 1737. Had Joel, 1738; who, I suppose, was the Joel Green that commanded a company in Col.

GREEN, ISRAEL, brother of the above, was married, and had three children in Leicester; removed to Petersham, and then to Hubbardston; d. about 1790. Had four sons in the battle of Bunker Hill, - one of them killed, and the other mortally wounded, in that battle. The third, then a lieutenant, was killed at the battle of Monmouth. The fourth was in the battles of White Plains, Bennington, and Saratoga, and in the campaign in New Jersey, -- the only one of the four who survived the service.
GREEN, JOCKTON, son of William, 2d, as is believed, m. Esther Newhall, dau. of Jonathan, 1762. Had Esther, 1763; m. Elkanah Haven, 1785. Jonathan, 1765; Persis, 1768; Francis, 1770; Josiah, 1772; Salmon, 1775; Eli, 1778. Mr. Green lived in the house east of the late John King, Esq., where Richard Bond, jun., lived and died.
GREEN, JABEZ, came from Malden about 1750. His grandfather was brother of the first Samuel who came to Leicester. His wife's name was Mary; and they had Jabez, June 13, 1743. Mary, Jan. 7, 1749. Nathan, went to Gardner, Dec. 27, 1752. Joseph, Dec. 30, 1754; went to Vermont. Stephen, Aug. 7, 1757; known as " Deacon." Elizabeth, March 8, 1762. Hannah, Dec. 28, 1764. Abel, September, 1767. Mr. Green lived in the north-east part of Leicester, where his son Abel lived for many years. He was a farmer; and d. Oct. 1, 1806, aged eighty-eight.
GREEN, JABEZ, son of the above, m. Lucy Kent of Leicester, 1764; and had Hannah; m. John White of Leicester. Zolvah, who lives on the same farm where his father lived, in the north-west part of the town. Josiah and Jabez; who removed to Spencer, and are now living there.
GREEN, ABEL, brother of the above, in. Eunice Wicker, whose mother was sister of Seth Washburn. Had Harriet, 1790; Eunice, 1795; Julia, 1797; Laura, 1800. Mr. Green lived in the north-east part of the town; a farmer; d. 1743, aged seventy-six.
GREEN, JOEL, son of William, 2d. His wife's name was Chloe. They had Joel, 1762; Chloe, 1764; Seth, 1767.

There were several other families of Green; some of whom, after marrying and settling in Leicester, removed from the town. Among them, Elias, son of Thomas, 2d, above mentioned. He m. Mary Scott of Leicester, 1782; and had Tamisin, Oct. 27, 1784; d. 1808. Sylvanus, April 6, 1787. In 1796, he removed to Cambridge, Vt. There was a Thomas Green, a hatter, who came here about 1807 or 8, and raised up a pretty large family.
GREEN, SOLOMON, son of Dr. Thomas, m. Elizabeth Page, and lived in what used to be called the Wilby Cottage, in the south part of the town. His children were Timothy; Solomon; John; Archelaus; Lynde; Isaac; Mary. The Greens have been the most numerous of the Leicester families; and the number of those whose names are found on the rolls of Revolutionary service furnish the strongest proof of the energy which characterized them as men, as well as the patriotic influences under which they were educated: and yet, like so many of the early families of the town, they have almost all disappeared; while their descendants may be found scattered all over the Union.

Individuals : CROSIER Moses

          Quote from the original source document :
Source: Biographical review: this volume contains biographical sketches of the leading citizens of Hampden County, Massachusetts:
Moses Crosier was a native of the town of Pelham, but lived most of his life at Belchertown.
He was one of the old-time geniuses, by trade a gunsmith, and owned a shop, where he plied his trade; but so versatile was he that articles of all kinds, from fine watches, needing skilled workmanship to adjust their intricate machinery, to rifles, were brought to his shop in all stages of dilapidation, and soon emerged therefrom nearly as good as new. Mr. Crosier
owned a blacksmith-shop, and also a farm.
Probate records and deeds at Hampshire Registry of Deeds in Northampton Mass. indicate that after the Death of Alexander Crosier the Crosier Farm in Pelham Ma. was maintained in the Crosier family passing into the hands of Arthur, son of Alexander. Arthur would not be a legal adult until 1805 and Moses not until 1817. The 1790 census lists one adult male head of household in Pelham having the name of John Crosier.
Moses appears to be the son John Crosier b. abt.1737. R. Austin states that this John Crosier had six children, five of them born in Halifax, Vt. The Crosier land in Pelham , Mass. was being farmed after the death of Alexander Crosier d.1788 till his son Arthur Crosier b. 1785 came of age. John Crosier b. 1737 seems to have came back from Halifax, Vt. and ran the farm at this time. CJC.

          Quote from the original source document :
1860 Census Henry is living with his parents in Bennington, Vt.
On July 15, 1870 in Glastonbury, Vt. Henry Crozier age 18 born in Vermont, living in a boarding house (posibly a lumber camp) is listed as a wood chopper.
At the time of the probate of his brother John Haswells' estate 1907 he is listed as 56 years old residence South Shields, England.
In 1910 Henry S. Crozier born in Plymouth is listed as a prisoner in Cork Ireland
In the 1911 "England and Wales Census" Henry Crosier 66 years old, a United States residenct is living in South Shields, Durham, England.
He was a merchant seaman on the SS "Algiers" at the Manchester, England docks on September 15, 1915
From Certificate of Regeistration of American Citizen. #66554
The SS Algiers was torpedoed about 15 miles east of the Isle of Wight on 26 Feb. 1917 by the German submarine UC-65 (Captain Otto Steinbrinck). Since Henry's papers expired in Sept. 1916, there is no telling if he was on the ship when it was sunk.-Millie Heym
Another source says that the SS Algiers hit a mine, all sources say that there was a loss of eight men.
Identified dead of the SS algiers sunk February 26, 1917:
Patrick Kenney of Tinahack, Arklow, Co.
Thomas Jones Williams, Donkeyman
A seach of the Tower Hill Memorial shows eight identified dead from the SS ALgiers but no Crosiers, so it appears that Henry Sumner Crosier did not perish upon the sinking of the SS Algiers.
A Henry S. Crosier recieved Star, Victory Medal, British War Meal for service 1914-1920 - World War 1 in Europe. Service #234746.
A Henry Crosier born 89 years old died in South Shields, Durham, England April-June 1942.
