1150. ELIZABETH6 GREENE (Richard5, John4, Thomas3, Thomas2, John1) was bom October 23, 1761, died March 16, 181 5. She married, March 5, 1786, Sylvester Gardiner Hazard, son of Dr. Robert and Elizabeth Hazard of South Kingstown and Coventry, born July 27, 1760. His father, probably the best-educated physician in his town, studied medicine with his uncle, Dr. Sylvester Gardiner, and his practice extended to the neighboring towns of Charlestown and Hopkinton. His will gives not only an insight to his character, but a vivid picture of his home environments. It was carefully worded, and even the interests of his youngest child of two years were carefully guarded. Dr. Hazard was married, April 19, 1752, to "Elizabeth, daughter of Robert Hazard of Point Judith, deceased, at the house of her mother Esther Hazard and Col. Joseph Hazard her son, by Reverend Doctor MacSparran." St. Paul's Church Record contains also the following: "On the 12th of February 1771, Doctor Robert Hazard was buried, having had a long and lingering illness. A considerable assembly present and a funeral sermon preached, and on Sunday the 24th I preached at the house of mourning of the late Doctor Hazard on 'Mortality' — a large congregation. The Honourable James Honeyman was present, who came from Little Rest, where the Court had been sitting the whole week."
Sylvester G. Hazard died February 14, 1812.
