35031. Sarah Sprague. Born on 26 Sep 1686 in Malden, MA.

William and Sarah were second cousins; their paternal grandfathers were brothers.
On 30 Mar 1709 when Sarah was 22, she married William Green (35048) , son of William Green (16696) (ca 1661-21 Mar 1690/1) & Elizabeth Hills (ca 1661-29 Jan 1698/9), in Reading, MA.215 Born ca 1683 in Malden, MA.215 Occupation: Carpenter.

From the Descendants of Thomas Green(e):215
    William was a “carpenter” by trade, being thus designated in several contracts, particularly in “Artecles of agrement made and Concluded between ye Select men of Malden and William Green of ye sd town carpender Referring two ye bulding of a school-house for ye sd Town of Maldon;” “ye dementions” of which were to be “Twenty foots in Lenght and sixteen foots in bredth, six foots between joynts,” with “a chimne in sd hous nere seven foots between ye gams,” and “two windores one on ye South and ye other on ye Est,” and a “dower of plain Boords.” “Ye above sd William Green to be paid 19 pounds for ye above said woork and where with all to do ye same.” The contract is dated Oct. 27, 1712, and is printed in full in the Bi-Centennial Book of Malden, p. 186. The building appears to have been the first separate edifice erected in Malden for educational purposes, and must have presented a strange contrast to the spacious and well ventilated school-houses of the present day.
    He continued to reside in Maiden till about the year 1719 or 1720, when he with his family removed to Leicester; his father's cousin, Capt. Samuel Green, being the leader in that movement, and many Maiden families following.
    We find his name among the fifty families to whom was granted the eastern half of the original township, which half now constitutes the town of Leicester. [Middlesex Deeds, 29 : 329.] The western half was incorporated as the town of Spencer in 1753.
    He resided after this in Leicester, of which town he was treasurer from 1736 to 1745. The time of his death is not known. He lived certainly till 1755; since under date of May 19, in that year, we find a deed foni him and his wife Sarah to their son Nahum Green, of land bounded by Dr. Green’s land, and also by land “conveyed this day to my son William.” [Worcester Deeds, 39 : 10.

From the Descendants of Thomas Green(e):215
    Nathaniel lived at “Charlestown-End,” [incorp. 1725 as Stoneham] about eight years, from 1715 to 1723, doubtless on the land purchased in 1712, by himself and his brother Benjamin, of Joseph Underwood. See preceding paragraph. There being no church or house of worship at that time in Charlestown-End, he attended public worship at Maiden, only three or four miles distant; and was admitted to the church there Jan. 21, 1722-3. His wife Elizabeth had been admitted to the same church, April 8, 1722. Of that church Rev. Joseph Emerson had been ordained pastor, Oct. 31, 1721, after the removal of Rev. David Parsons to Leicester.
    He removed to Leicester about the year 1723, where his brother William and his relatives Capt. Samuel and Thomas Green were already settled. He was there a man of some consideration: and received a commission as “Captain of the first foot company in Leicester,” Dec. 12, 1743. Within a year war broke out between France and Great Britain, and Capt. Green was frequently called on to have his command in readiness to meet the enemy, as the following order will show :—
    “Sir, This moment I Received the Governours Express, and pursuant there to You are Required In his majesty’s name on Your utmost Perill to Draw out of Your Milatary Ward twenty five men compleatly armed and furnished with Amunition and fourteen Days Provision and march them without the Least Delay to Worcester and from thence to Proceed to Boston a french Invasion being every moment expected. I say fail not at Your Perill.
“Worcester, Sept. 22, 1746. John Chandler, Col.
    “Either you or Capt. Whittemore, with two more Comission officers must go, & don’t fail.”
    Directed—“In his majesty's service, to Capt. Nathl. Green, in Leicester.”
    We copy the above from the original order, now before us.
    Some time in the latter part of his life he resided in Sutton, as we infer from some deeds given by Nathaniel Green of Sutton to Nathaniel Green of Leicester; and one or two deeds from other parties to Nathaniel Green of Sutton. He returned to Leicester before his death, and died there.
    “Capt. Nathaniel Green died at Leicester, Sept. 27, 1774, a little after 7 o’clock at Night." [Record made by Ebenezer Green.]
