    Thomas Green, Harborne

    Hi Janice, thanks again for all your hard work on my behalf. I managed to find someone who is able to read old wills and there is no mention of a Jane. So I think I can rule out this Thomas Green. Thanks again

    Jane was born in Harborne to a Thomas Green and Hannah in 1787. I have been researching using a geneoloy site and Thomas Green Esq came up as a possible father. I am trying to confirm or disconfirm that. It has nothing to do with wishful thinking. The son of Thomas Green left the manor, (than is...

However Thomas Green Esq built Harborne Hall for his daughter Elizabeth who was married to George Simcox JP Brass founder. After her death...

    I think that when Elizabeth Green married Thomas Simcox they changed their name to Green-Simcox. Elizabeth's father Thomas Green Esq is the one I am looking at to establish if he was the husband of Hannah and the father of Jane

    Thanks so much for researching this stuff for me, it is extremely generous. As far as I understand Elizabeth was the daughter of an earlier Thomas Green Esq who died in 1803.

    I know this is extremely presumptious, but is there any chance somebody would be able to very kindly look at this will and see if it mentions a daughter Jane so that I can establish if this is the right Thomas Green. It is several pages long, but I can't make head or tale of it...

    Thank you very much Pjmburns for the certificate. It's very kind of you to have forwarded this to me. I am having difficulty making out the date where it says 'were baptised' on the certificate.

    MWS you mentioned that the Thomas Green who married Hannah was a nailer. Is he likely to be the same Thomas Green listed as a Master Nailer who lived at and built Harborne House?
