John Grene of Boughton who died in 1555 - His Will

I have traced my Green family tree back to Dallington and Kingsthorpe, Northamptonshire. William Green died in Kingsthorpe in 1708.
I am now looking at all Greens in Adjoining parishes to see if I can find William's forbears. At present I know of no link between William and John.

Earliest mentions of Greens in Kingsthorpe

In 1883 the vicar of Kingsthorpe created a list of old documents, and excerpts from some, in a book called:
Kingsthorpiana or Researches in a Church Chest
I have extracted all mentions of the name Green from this book. I have also included early Greens from the Kingsthorpe parish register.

If anyone has any more information on early Greens in Kingsthorpe I would be very grateful if they could contact me.
