JOHN GREEN bought of Ann Rogers, widow of
William, May 18, 1672, a tract of land in or near the
present site of the village of Huntington, Long Island.
In the following year he paid taxes. I n 1684 his
family consisted of wife, Elizabeth, and the following
children: John, born 1675; Elizabeth, b. 1677;
Thomas, b. 1679; William, b. 1682; Amy, b. 1684.

In 1699 he sells what seems to be his homestead, and
disappears from the Huntington town records. In
the same year (1699) John Green (probably, though
not certainly, the same John) bought land on the
south side of Long Island, " one half of Siscr's Neck."
The records of Islip go back to 1721, and in 1723
William Green appears as assessor and overseer of the
poor. From that time the name of Green does not
disappear from the books until wc find the name of
Willed Green in 1785. Willett owned one half of t he
neck of land where Sayville now stands, though it is
doubtful whether this is the " Siscr's Neck" mentioned
above. His brothers were John, who owned land adjoining
on the west, Obadiah, who moved up into
Queens County, and another, who settled in New
York State at a place called " Nine Partners." The
brother John bad sons, John, Thomas, and William.
Willett Green bad two wives, who were sisters, named
Willis, from Patchogue. His only son, Isaac, was born
in Sayville, married Charity Newton, and had the
following children : Caleb, Clark (who died in
Brooklyn in 1891, aged 74), Willett, Henry, Samuel,
Debby Ann, who married James M. Edwards, of Sayville,
Sarah, Elizabeth, Anor, Joanna, and Rachel.
The writer is indebted to David M. Edwards, of Sayville,
for the foregoing sketch.
