"Unkle Ned" was Edward Green, born September 18, 1733; died July 29,
1790. He married, on April 14, 1757, Mary Storer (sister of Ebenezer
Storer and of Hannah Storer Green). They had no children. He was, in
1780, one of the enlisting officers for Suffolk County. In a letter
of George Green's, written July 25, 1770, we read: "Ned still lives
gentleman-like at Southwacks Court without doing any business tho'
obliged to haul in his horns;" and from another of December 5, 1770:
"Ned after having shown off as long as he you'd with his yell^o
damask window curtains &c is (the last month) retired into the
country and lives w^th his wife at Parson Storers at Watertown. How
long that will hold I cant say."
