Green's Life
George Green was the only son of George Green Sr. a Nottingham baker. Green's Grandparents were John and Ann Green. Green Sr. was apprenticed as a baker until his twenty's. Green Sr. was able to expand his business to include a modern (at the time) mill, which he left to his son at his death. It is very likely that the good solid business that Green Sr. developed allowed George Green to devote enough of his time to his personal education to allow him the ability to develop his mathematical theories.
