Research Notes

Some trees on Ancestry have Thomas dying on the 26th January 1886 at Rochester, Monroe, New York, USA, based on a death Index for a Thomas Green with no age recorded in the index.

But the image of Thomas & Harriet's gravestone on Findagrave does show Thomas died 1886 aged 60 years.

However, on familysearch, that death in 1886 has been incorrectly attributed to Thomas Green b. 1846 bapt. 1848 (son of Philip Green and Ann Green nee Bradley) at Rochester, Monroe, New York, USA.
