Henry Green- Child 5 and Christopher Green- Child 6

Henry Green: Child 5

was born on 8th October 1808 in Sydney. He was baptised in Sydney on 2nd April 1809. We know nothing about Henry but in the list of 1840 hotels in Sydney there is a suspicious entry for  Henry Spenser Green who holds the license of the Cricketers Arms corner of Pitt and Market Sts Sydney. Given the Green family history with hotels maybe this is our Henry but no records are available to confirm anymore than his  birth.

Family sites have him listed as Henry Stredwick Green marrying Mary Ryan who was mentioned in George Cooper Green’s bio. If this is Henry son of Jonathan and Elizabeth , he and Mary Ryan had 4 children Ellen [1836-1895]; Henry [ 1838-1923]; Michael [ 1839-1913] and Mary [ 1842-1921]. This Henry is listed in the 1828 census as a convict from the ship Prince Regent although this document does not link it to Mary Ryan.  The evidence for this being Henry is very absent at present.




Until further evidence comes to the fore all we can safely say is Henry was born on 8/8/1808.

Christopher Green: Child 6: born and died 1812

Note from the author of the site
I wish to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands and waters  upon which readers live in Australia and understand that land was never ceded but has been shared with us who now all call it home. Thank you to my First Nations cousins and communities who continue to share wisdom with us and the love of this wonderful country. Thank you for your custodianship over the past 60,000 years and I hope we can honour that into the future with equal care.

This website is dedicated to my dad Henry Edwin Smith [1920-2005] son of John Joseph Smith and Eva Alice Grinton and his family Aunty Ett and Uncle Ross.

As at Jan 2023 I have done my best to authenticate with primary evidence all information on this site. However, I am sure there will be some inconsistencies as this site has been developed over many years and does contain documents which have been updated. If you find any inconsistencies please let me know. More importantly if you have more or better information on the family please let me know and I will include it here.


Family history is an evolving thing and as more records and information become accessible new light can be shed on questions and data. At any point in time the data here is what was available at the time and where it is simply based on family story and not documents I have noted that.

I am publishing this site in stages so that what has been done can be made accessible now. If you are from one of the pages under development I would love to hear from you.
