      1. The book "The Early Settlement of Stamford, Connecticut 1641-1700…," by Jeanne Majdalany, p. 163:
      "GREEN, John - bc1610, d1693, m1 Mercy (or Mary) Jarvis (d1657), m2 1658 Martha (Brett?) Finch (wd/o John).
      John Green's background is uncertain because there were several John Greens who came to America in the early 1630s. He was in New Haven before 1650 and in Stamford by 1654 where he lived on the north side of East Street. He was a shepherd in 1669 and was a constable and a deputy several times. He moved to Bedford, NY in 1680 and died there. His sons Joseph and Benjamin returned to Stamford about 1685. They lived at the east end of town north of the road.
