(Brothers:)
     When Alexander Green and his twin brother Allen were born on May 11, 1844, in Banff, Banffshire, their father, James, was 37 and their mother, Christina, was 32. He had seven brothers and seven sisters. He died having lived for more than 100 years. He died in 1945 at the age of 101.

     When Arthur Reid Green was born on May 27, 1855, in Turriff, Aberdeenshire, his father, James, was 48 and his mother, Christina, was 43. He married Lydia Jane Brider on June 10, 1880, in Bermondsey, Surrey. They had five children in 15 years. He died on August 27, 1900, in Glasgow, Lanarkshire, at the age of 45.

It is told that his children/adults all left for the USA/Canada with one later returning to Scotland.

One of his sons, Ronald :
When Ronald James Green was born on February 2, 1883, in Arbroath, Angus, his father, Arthur, was 27 and his mother, Lydia, was 24. He married Agnes Marie Walsh on September 2, 1916, in Cook County, Illinois. They had five children during their marriage. He died in 1956 in Chicago, Illinois, at the age of 73.

Ronald had 5 children: 3 sons (Arthur, William, and Gordon) and 2 daughters, Kathleen, who died a few years ago.... she had ten children. They live in Illinois for the most part, with the latter raised in NY. We are not sure what happened to the other siblings of Ronald.

We have reconnected with some Greens in Inverness, Scotland, where we plan to visit next month.
We understand that other parts of this family also emigrated to the USA and may live in the Kansas area.

Hi,

Can you condense this a bit please & list the names of the siblings of Ronald with dates.

You have listed everything apart from the info. on the people you are seeking.

E.G.

Arthur Reid Green  b 1855 Turriff, Aberdeen married Lydia Jane Brider in 1880, Bermondsey, Surrey. He died 1900, in Glasgow, Lanarkshire

They had 5 children.

1. Ronald James Green b 1883, Arbroath, Angus, married Agnes Marie Walsh 1916, in Cook County, Illinois. He died in 1956 in Chicago, Illinois

2. Name/born/when/where & ditto for other 3 siblings please?

Have you found the death for mother Lydia Jane if she survived Arthur Reid?

There is a death on SP for "a" Lydia Green 1907 (aged 45 - 50) in Dennistoun, Lanark which could be her? Her m/s is recorded as Bridger rather than Brider but I wouldn't be put off....simple error?

This will tell you if one of their children registered her death?
