His youth was passed on a farm, and he followed the occupation of a
farm laborer until he attained his manhood. In the meantime, he
attended the schools of his neighborhood in the winter seasons, a part
of the time riding four miles in order to obtain the advantage of the
instruction of a better teacher than his district school afforded. He
so improved his time that he was competent to take charge of a school
in his 19th year, teaching two winters. Shortly afterward, he
attended the high schools of Knightstown and Shelbyville, which
completed his literary education. In 1852, he began the study of
medicine in the office of Drs. Selman & Bussel, of Shelbyville,
afterward studying under his brother in Rush Co. In the winter of
1853-54 he attended a course of lectures at Rush Medical College,
Chicago; then returned to Shelbyville and formed a partnership with
Dr. Selman, which continued eighteen months. In the winter of
1855-56, he attended his second course of lectures at Rush Medical
College, graduating Feb 20, 1856. He immediately came back and
continued practice alone, and has ever since been considered one of
the leading physicians of Shelbyville.
He was married in this city, May 6, 1856, to Miss Jennie Doble, to
whom have been born two children. She is the daughter of William
A. and Margaret J. Doble; he a native of Virginia, and she of
Kentucky, who were early pioneers of this county. Dr. Green is a
member of the M.E. Church, and Superintendent of the Sabbath school of
that denomination in Shelbyville, which position he has filled many
years, either as Superintendent or Assistant Superintendent.
