           GEORGE C. GREEN, attorney at Sand Beach, was born in England,
        Nov. 22, 1844. He is the son of JOHN and ELIZABETH (SMITH) GREEN,
        both of English descent. The former died when the son was an
        infant, the mother emigrated to Canada, where she still resides.
        MR. G. was raised to the occupation of a farmer and lumberman,
        which business he followed until he was 25 years old. He then
        purchased a farm in Lexington Township, Sanilac Co., Mich., which
        he continued to operate until 1868, when he was appointed Under-
        Sheriff of Sanilac County, filling the position for a period of two
        years. He then began the study of law, with JUDGE WIXSON and JOHN
        DEVINE at Lexington, Sanilac County. In 1875 he was admitted to the
        Bar of the 24th Judicial Circuit of this State and also the United
        States Court. In 1878 he located in Sand Beach, where he has since
        conducted his business with success.  MR. GREEN is entirely a self-
        made man. In 1876 MR. G. was elected to fill the office of Circuit
        Court Commissioner of Huron County, which position he held for four
        years, and on Nov. 4, 1884, was again elected, with a larger
        majority than any man in Huron County, - 585.
           MR. GREEN was married in Canada, in i860, to MARY GIDDINGS,
        daughter of WILLIAM and SUSAN GIDDINGS. She was born in England,
        in 1840. Of this union two children have been born: HENRIETTA and
        ROSELPHA. Both are qualified teachers in graded schools.
