    Other Events:

    • Cemetery: Bostic Brickyard Cemetery, Bostic, Rutherford County, NC

    Notes:

    From LeLa Whistnant's website: Joseph was among the earliest residents west of the Catawba. There are many records of him in the area in the 1750s and early 1760s. He was at least in the Charlotte, Mecklenburg County area by 1751 or 1752 to meet and marry Mary. Strong tradition says his son William was born in 1753 at their home on Buffalo Creek near the present NC-SC line in Cleveland County. There is evidence of a settlement there on Buffalo Creek north of the Broad River in 1754 when 26 people were killed in an Indian raid. Whether he originally settled on Buffalo Creek and moved north because of Indian problems is unclear. Most evidence puts Joseph further north in the German settlement near Beaverdam Creek in the early fifties. He was on the Capt. Samuel Corbin's militia list, now thought to be from 1753. When Burill Grigg died in 1756, Joseph had an account at his trading post on the south side of the Catawba at Rocky Ford as did his friend James McAfee. In 1758 he patented about 500 acres of land between Beaverdam Creek and Indian Creek in the northern portion of present day Gaston County. If Joseph were like most settlers, he had lived and worked that land for several years before actually receiving the grant. In the 1760's he sold this land to Christy and Peter Eaker, Jr. and settled or resettled permanently in the Buffalo Creek area. The log home Mary and her second husband, James McAfee, shared on Buffalo Creek may also may have been Joseph's before his death. Still standing in the 1980s, it was typical of many prosperous settlers in the area. Unlike the modern image of a one room cabin, it was two stories tall and contained four rooms with a hallway in the middle. 1st land grant dated 1753. Listed as married man in Samuel Cobrin's militia company in 1747 (1st militia company west of the Catawba River). Joseph was a member of Cobrin's militia, was listed as a Captain during the French and Indian War, and during January, 1770 term of court (Tryon County), Joseph wa s appointed Captain of the Militia. Also listed as "Ranger" during French and Indian War. At one time lived near Crouse, NC in Gaston County. Jan 1770 term of court - Joseph Green appointed Captain of Militia for Tryon County (records in office of Secretary of State of North Carol ina). McEntire's book says he was born in 1714 in Maryland. Possibly born in Tryon Co., NC. Buried in Green family cemetery near the brick yards at Bostic, NC. Father may have been Thomas, but there is no documented evidence
