White

We believe that there are two more sons, Robert and William Green. We
believe that Eve is Eveah Woolever. We believe that Elizabeth Green, the daughter
mentioned above, may have married John Robins/Robbins and lived in Amwell,
Hunterdon County. The reason we think this is the age and time of all of the
information above and the names mentioned in the John Robins/Robbins &
Elizabeth marriage and the similarity of names that are in the will of John
Robins/Robbins.
Does anyone know anything about this family?
Thank you,
