Generation: 3

  1. 6.  John GREENE was born Abt 1650; died 6 Oct 1729.

    Notes:

    Some genealogies have this John Greene as a son of John "Quidnessett" Greene, but other more recent researchers strongly dispute that. A closer study of land records indicates that John Jr., the son of John "Quidnessett" Greene, was living in Newport, and may in fact have died earlier than this John, who lived in East Greenwich and then the Harkney Hill section of Coventry.

    Since the evidence for parentage of this particular John Greene has been called into question, I have not extended our family tree beyond this point. For further information, see the following web site: http://www.hal-pc.org/~wmewrght/green.html

    William E. Wright is one of may compilers of Greene genealogies. His book and web site provide a comprehensive analysis of other Greene family researchers, which can be evaluated and compared by interested individuals.

    However, as further research comes to light in the future, descendants may have to yet again change their genealogy data!

    John — Abigail WARDWELL. Abigail (daughter of Uzal WARDWELL and Unknown Wife) was born 27 Oct 1665, Bristol, RI; died Aft 19 Oct 1739. [Group Sheet]


  2. 7.  Abigail WARDWELL was born 27 Oct 1665, Bristol, RI (daughter of Uzal WARDWELL and Unknown Wife); died Aft 19 Oct 1739.

    Notes:

    Her name appears as Abigail D. in some sources, but most genealogies have agreed that she was a daughter of Usal/Uzal Wardwell of Bristol, RI. I have concurred for the present.

    One genealogy says she was born at Ipswich.

    Abigail died after 19 Oct 1739, when she was named in the will of her stepmother.

Generation: 4

  1. 14.  Uzal WARDWELL was born Abt 1639; died 25 Oct 1732, Bristol, RI.

    Notes:

    His death record at Bristol: "WORDALL Uzal, 93y., Oct. 25, 1732"

    The will of Uzal Wardwell, administered 7 Dec 1732 at Bristol, RI, mentions his wife Grace and five sons: Joseph, Uzal, James, William, & Benjamin. No daughters are mentioned, although it is known that he had daughters.

    I am not sure which of his children were born of his second wife, although I am fairly sure that Sarah was Grace's daughter because she and her husband are named as executors in Grace's will. Also, I have found James in the Bristol birth records, as a son of Uzal & Grace.

    The surname is spelled variously as Wardwell, Wordwell, Wordall, Wordell, & Wardel.

    Uzal came from Ipswich, MA, and settled in Bristol, RI, where it is said he was an innkeeper.

    Uzal married Unknown Wife Abt 1665. Unknown was born Abt 1643; died Bef 1682. [Group Sheet]
