| Text | (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 Royals- ton, where six of the younger children were baptized June 9, 1776. Children of Nahum and Dorcas Green, all born at Leicester: Mary, August 10, 1751: Uzziah, mentioned below; Isaiah, March I, 1756; Mercy.
