William's father was Deputy Governor of the Colony, and his grandfather, Surgeon John Greene, came to New England in 1635. He was one of the "original Proprietors" of Providence, and acquired the Occupasuetuxet Farm in 1642 from Chief Miantonomi.
      William died "a victim of the severity of the marine service and the malarial climate into which the commerce of the Colony carried him". He is buried at Easton Cemeterym Middletown, with his wife's parents.
