This John Green became Colonel in the 10th Virginia Volunteers and lead the Virginia 4th Regiment at the Battle of Guilford Courthouse. He was a military leader throughout the Revolution. Green County, Virginia, was later named for him and his father, Robert Green, a member of the Virginia House of Burgess (1736), a Court Justice and Vestryman.

Note Thomas Milam's usual mark, "TM" and Benjamin Millam's signature at the bottom left. Thus far Benjamin's signature is the earliest example of a Milam writing his own name in Virginia. He spelled his last MILLAM. I Believe that Sarah "Killy" is a Daughter of John Kelly, a brother-in-law of Thomas Milam. George Row was the third witness.
