The Family of Thompson L. Green and Ellen Belle Hoffman
Thompson L. Green taught school, carried the mail, and raised a family in the small community of Kentontown, Robertson County, Kentucky. His wife Ellen Belle Hoffman outlived him by more than thirty years, survived widowhood twice, and followed her children across the Ohio River into a new life. Together they left behind four children — three well documented, one nearly forgotten — and a family story that reaches forward into the next century.
