The research on the Green family is in an attempt to discover who Frances Green is that married John Heaphy, in 1799, St. Munchins, COI, Limerick.
The Green family have a long established history in Ireland and Limerick, with the family having had a powerful influence on the region. Godfrey Green (1620 - 1682, died Waterford), born Kilmanahan Castle, Co. Waterford, son of Capt. John Green and Katherine Hodges, was granted 541 acres at Mooretown-Keating, Knocknangle and Rathmore, barony of Iffa and Offa, county Tipperary (Ref: Greene - Landed Estates), in 1678, to hold for the use of his children: daughters: Susannah, Hannah, Bridget, Mary and Deborah; sons: Thomas, Rodulfus, Robert, Gilbert, Godfrey, Samuel, and John. He was married twice, with his second wife being, Frances (M.1645, Limerick), daughter of Robert Cox of Bruff, county Limerick .
In Limerick, the Green family is associated with:
Ballymacreese, near Cahirconclish (Captain Abraham Green - Henry Green)
Graige, Patrickswell, near Clarina (Captain Thomas Green - John Green)
Old Abbey, Shanagolden (Captain Godfrey Green - Captain John Green)
The Green lines of Limerick are being developed gradually.
BALLYMACREECE, LIMERICK (Barony of Clonwilliam)
Marmaduke Green, (c1740 - 1682), of Fermanagh. Marmaduke is the brother of Henry Green (of Fermanagh, Will, 1692) and he married Jane Crichton (Creighton), sister of Col. Abraham Crichton, Crom Castle, Co. Fermanagh. Marmaduke and and Jane are parents to:
1 Captain Abraham Green (d.1724) purchased the forfeited lands of James II, setting up his seat at Ballymacreece, Limerick. Abraham married Annabella Blennerhassett in November 1694, Limerick. Annabella is a brother to Gerald Blennerhassett, father of Rachel Blennerhassett, who married Daniel Heaphy in 1715.
Abraham and Annabella had no children, so the inheritance of Ballymacreece, went to his nephew Henry Green, (1684 - 1745) son of Rev. William Green and Elizabeth Newburgh.
2 Rev. William Green (b. Abt 1655) married Elizabeth Newburgh in 1682. Elizabeth Newburgh, is the sister of Col. Brockhill, Dorothy & Rebecca Newburgh, of Newbridge, Meath. William Green and Elizabeth Newburgh had the following four children (Betham, 1719):
i Henry Green (1684 - 1745) was born in Fermanagh and was high sheriff there in 1721. Henry moved to Limerick to take up ownership of the lands at Ballymacreece, which he inherits from his uncle, Captain Abraham Green, merchant, Limerick. Henry was the High Sheriff of Co. Fermanagh in 1721 (Ref: Crossle Genealogical Abstracts). Henry married in 1714 to his first cousin, Letitia Pockrich/Pockeridge, daughter of Richard "Porrets" Pockrich and Dorothy Newburgh (sister to Elizabeth Newburgh, mother of Henry Green). Henry and Letitia had three known children:
Abraham Green, born about 1715, the eldest son of Henry. He married Honora Piers (dau of William and niece of William Piers, died 1751, of Portarlington) in 1739, and had the following children:
Henry Green, born about 1742. Died 1765, aged 20. Guardian of Henry was awarded to William Ryves, along with Henry's two sisters, Letitia and Elizabeth (Ref: Betham Genealogical Abstracts).
Letitia Green, born about 1743, she married John Armstrong, of Farney Castle, in 1770.
Elizabeth Green, born about 1745, she married James Barry, of Cork, in 1765. Elizabeth and James are the parents of
Major Henry Green Barry (1770 - 1838).
Both Abraham and Honora Green must have died young, as on the death of Henry in 1765, he is referred to as a minor and William Ryves is the guardian of Elizabeth and Letitita, minors, the children. Another reference for Henry Green Jnr Esq., administration granted to Elizabeth Green, the eldest sister, next of kin, Feb 1765.
William Green, born 1721 (Ref: TCD, Irish Genealogical Research Society). Married Catherine Massy, 03 Feb 1746, COI, Rathkeale. Catherine is the daughter of William Massy (1680 - 1768) and Anne Bentley of Stoneville, Rathkeale. William Green was registered as a Freeholder, in 1761, Ballymaceece, Limerick.

4 Hester Green, who married Mr. Martin/Morton. with children:
i Hester Martin/Morton
