| Note | (V) Nahum. son of William (3) Green, was born in Leicester, Massachusetts, April 10, 1729. He resided in South Leicester, near Greenville, on part of the homestead deeded to him by his father, September 6, 1754. He removed to Royalston, Worcester county, Massachusetts, in 1770, and he died there July 29, 1775, of "small-pox caught in camp at Cambridge, aged forty-seven years." This record on the town books proves his revolutionary service, though his record is not found on any of the muster rolls and other records at the state house, as published in the Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the Revolution.
He married (intentions dated October 21, 1750) at Leicester, Dorcas Sanger, of Woodstock, Connecticut. She joined the church in Royalston, where six of the younger children were baptized June 9, 1776.

Member Massachusetts Second Provincial Congress, in 1775 -
Quote from <b>The history of the town of Royalston, Massachusetts
</b>by Caswell, Lilley Brewer, Cross, Fred Wilder, Published 1971Page 402-3 :
On February 1, 1775, a second Provincial Congress assembled at Cambridge, later holding adjourned sessions at Concord and Watertown. As her representative to this body, Royalston sent Nahum Green, whose home was on the old Toad in the valley west of the late John W. Stockwell's. This Congress established a permanent committee of safety with large military powers, provided for a complete organization of the militia, embodied a force of minute men comprising one- fourth of the military strength of the colony, appointed three veterans of the French Wars, Jedediah Preble, Artemas Ward, and Seth Pomeroy, to chief command, and resolved on the purchase of military stores to the amount of upwards of twenty thousand pounds. This body dissolved the 29th of May, having continued its deliberations nearly four months. Mr. Green survived its final adjournment exactly two months, dying at his Royalston home of smallpox, July 29. |
