Generation: 2

  1. 2.  James Matteson was born 20 Mar 1711/12 (son of Henry Matteson, Jr. and Judith Weaver); died 1795.

    Notes:

    I am not sure that James was a son of Henry & Judith. This came from a family tree at Rootsweb and must be researched.

    James married Enfield Greene 2 Mar 1737/38, East Greenwich, RI. Enfield (daughter of John Greene, Jr. and Ann "Nancy" Hill) was born 31 Mar 1716; died Between 1742 and 1749. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    Enfield is mentioned as "my daughter Enfield Matteson, dec'd," in the will of her father John Greene, dated 15 Aug 1754.

    Children:
    1. Uriah Matteson was born 23 Jan 1738/39.

Generation: 3

  1. 4.  Henry Matteson, Jr. was born Abt 1670, East Greenwich, RI (son of Henry Matteson and Hannah Parsons).

  3. 6.  John Greene, Jr. was born 9 Apr 1688, East Greenwich, Kent County, RI (son of John GREENE and Abigail WARDWELL); died 3 Oct 1756.

    Notes:

    The will of John Greene of West Greenwich was dated 15 Aug 1754, proved 6 Nov 1756 at West Greenwich, RI. John's will mentions his wife, Mary Greene -- "who received household goods which she brought to me when I married her" (clue that she was not his first wife). He mentions 5 sons and 5 daughters, as well as several grandchildren; sons named are Silas dec'd, John, Timothy, Samuel, & Nathan; dtrs named are Enfield Matteson dec'd, Ann Nichols, Mary Johnson, Margaret Matteson, & Hester Weeks (Wickes). (Possibly another dtr. Elizabeth died young.) Grandchildren mentioned: Obediah, und 21, and 3 unnamed dtrs under 18, all of Silas dec'd; Anne Matteson und 18, and Josiah & Silas Matteson, all of Enfield dec'd. He does not mention any grandchildren who are children of his living children.

    I have made an assumption that John's second wife was Mary Almy (see marriage notes).

  3. 12.  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]


  4. 13.  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.
