    Deacon Paul D. Greene, son of Eugene D., and Emogene Langworthy Greene, was born at Green Settlement, Feb. 6, 1889, and died Aug. 24, 1971, at Watertown. N. Y., where he had been a hospital patient for seven months.
    Funeral services were in charge of the Rev. L. G. Gifford, supply pastor of the Adams Center church, at the Carpenter-Stoodley Funeral Home in Belleville, N. Y. Interment was in Union Cemetery, Adams Center.
    Paul D. Greene, long-time deacon of the Adams Center, N. Y., Seventh Day Baptist Church and resident of the nearby village of Adams, died at the age of eighty-two after a number of months of impaired mobility and hospitalization.
    He was the last of the twenty-eight first cousins of Green Settlement near Adams Center, all being descendants of the original settlers.

For years following he worked at the local Libby, McNeil and Libby milk plant. Later on he managed a large dairy farm in Potsdam while his two sons, Francis and Ronald, attended Clarkson College in Potsdam. When the family returned to Adams, he was employed by the Dairymen's League. Since his retirement and prior to his illness, he had worked at various farms in the community.
