Jonathan N. Green, M.D., Stilesville, Ind., was born in Guilford County, N.C., Aug. 23, 1825, a son of John and Charity (Swaim) Green. In 1835 his parents moved to Hendricks County, Ind., and settled on a farm near Plainfield. In 1837 they bought a farm in Center Township, where the father died in 1840. The mother survived her husband several years. They had a family of eight children, four of whom are living--Leno W., of Center Township; Martha, wife of John Lamb; Martin L., a Methodist minister, at West Lebanon, and Jonathan N. Dr. Green began the study of medicine in 1846 with Drs. Henry G. and David Todd, of Danville, and remained with them three years. He then located in Stilesville and began the practice of his profession. In the winter of 1857-'58 he attended lectures at Rush Medical College, Chicago, Ill., and graduated in the spring of the latter year. He has built up a large practice, having won the confidence and esteem of all who know him. He was married to Eva V. Pope, a native of Liberty Township, born in 1838, a daughter of James N. Pope, a pioneer of Hendricks County.
