Overview

Although it hasn't all been documented, the Greenman Line stretches back to England - with the first family member coming to America before 1630. It really gets interesting with Preserved Greenman, a colorful character who first brought the family to Western New York. His daughter Chloe married her 1st cousin William G. Greenman- one of their daughters was my GGG Grandmother, Tryphosa Greenman Hunt.

We also have a special interest in Preserved for he is our Patriot Ancestor. Uncle Art (Arthur Allen Jr) and I obtained membership in the Sons of the American Revolution through him.

The best "hunting grounds" for the Greenman Family is Orleans County NY where several generations of the family now sleep. New research also leads us to Darien, Genesee County NY.

Special thanks to Richard Greenman who posted his extensive research on the Greenman Family on line. His research site provided most of the early family history found below. Citation of his and other sources begins with Preserved Greenman.
