Historical note:


            Richard Ward Greene (1792-1875) was born in Potowomut, Rhode Island to Christopher (1748-1830) and Deborah (Ward) Greene (1758-1835). He had two stepsisters: Anne (Greene) Maxwell (b. 1776) and Catharine Greene (1780-1840), from his father's first marriage to Catharine Ward (1752-1781). Richard also had seven other siblings: Christopher (1783-1814), Celia (1786-1829), Emily (1787-1814), Nathanael (1789-1847), Samuel Ward (1794-1872), John Ward (1795-1820), and Elihue (1802-1878). He married Catharine Celia (Greene) Larned (1816-1887), daughter of his cousin Albert C. Greene and widow of the Hon. Samuel Larned. They married on November 12, 1851 and had no children.

            Greene graduated from Brown in 1812 and then studied at a law school in Litchfield, Connecticut for two years. In 1814 he settled in Boston and practiced law there until he returned to Rhode Island and began a practice in Providence in 1816. Greene served as District Attorney from 1826 until 1848 when he was appointed as Chief Justice of the Rhode Island Supreme Court. He resigned from the Supreme Court in 1854 so he could return to the practice of law. He also served in the State Senate (1847-1848) and in the General Assembly for Warwick (1865-1872). He died on March 14, 1875 and is buried in Potowomut.

Scope and content:


            This collection, covering the years 1799-1874, is divided into five series.

 

            Series one (bound volumes) contains abstracts, cash books, court notes, daybooks, dockets, estate records, records of Greene & Dexter, journals, ledgers, memoranda books, and receipt books. One item of note can be found on the first page of the account book kept on servants' pay. One notation says "Rozalios black man began to brush my boots 14th February 1822 at 25 cents per week."(box 11, folder 14)

            Series two, correspondence, contains many personal and business letters from family, friends, and clients. There are also letters or copies of letters that Greene wrote to others. One item of note is an 1815 letter from the banking house of Welles & Williams discussing the formation of commercial establishments in France for transactions between American and English business now that there has been "restoration of peace in Europe, as well as between the United States and Great Britain." (box 1, folder 5)

            Series three, papers, contains a variety of items, such as loose accounts, commissions, case arguments and opinions, deeds, a diploma, executions, insurance policies, leases, licenses, memo books, tax bills, power of attorneys, wills, and a writing book.

            Series four, partnerships, contains loose accounts and correspondence of the partnerships of Greene & Dexter, Greene & Hoppin, Hubbard & Greene, and Greene & Larned.

            Series five contains legal papers. Within these papers are individual legal cases and three types of miscellaneous papers: legal, financial, and letters. Miscellaneous legal contains items such as power of attorneys, various types of agreements, notes to unknown cases, and any other item that could not be identified as a particular legal case. Miscellaneous financial consists of loose financial records that may pertain to foldered cases or could be "cases" in and of themselves. "Miscellaneous letters" consists of correspondence that were not addressed to or sent by Richard W. Greene and were not immediately identified as belonging to a certain legal case.

            One particular legal case is particularly interesting for the light it sheds on early Irish immigration to Rhode Island, the 1837 case of Samuel Staples vs. John Fleming. Fleming came from Thomastown, County Kilkenny in 1836, found work as a laborer, and bought a small lot of land. He arranged for Samuel Staples, a Providence shipping agent, to send the proper tickets, and mortgaged his property to Staples for $131 to cover the cost tickets. His letter to his mother reads in part: "I would also advise Richard, James, Elizabeth, Mary and Margaret to come with you for I think if they are industrious they can get a better living here than in Ireland for the youngest can earn as much here as the oldest can there and I have engaged all your passages therefore it will be no expense to any of you. When you arrive at Liverpool there will be twenty dollars for you to receive which I have paid for your use, and I would advise you to be very particular where you stop and be very careful with your baggage for Mary had some things stolen from her when she was there... If you come you must provide yourselves with sea store which ought to consist of Bacon, Codfish, Potatoes, Oatmeal, Flour, Butter and Eggs and also Tea and Coffee and hard biscuit... We both enjoy very good health and like this country very much and we have the pleasure of hearing Mass every Sunday..." His sister Eliza wrote back from Liverpool three months later: "You did not send us a permit for our passage, and when we had nothing to shew, that we were the proper persons, we could not get going. I hope as soon as you receive this you will send us a proper permit. Your father and mother is dead 12 months." Eliza eventually reached Providence, but at an increased expense. Fleming then sued Staples for costs. The legal file, including a steamship advertising card, the mortgage deed and other related papers, can be found in box 22, folder 62. John Fleming appears as a laborer in the 1838 and 1841 Providence directories, and appears in the 1840 census of Providence, page 291, as aged 30-40 with five females.

Provenance:


            All of these records are believed to have arrived as part of the "Albert C. and Richard W. Greene Collection." The actual date of the accession is not known for sure, but the collection was in hand by the late 1940s. Therefore, the date of 1948 was assigned to the collection.

Processing note:


            This collection was originally processed by Harold Kemble circa 1987. Very little reprocessing was done. Kemble organized the collection chronologically into two groups: letters and papers. This processing was basically kept intact with an explanation of "papers" in the scope and content section. The collection is now divided into five series, though still chronological. Not every person that wrote to Richard has been listed in the card catalog. Only members of his family, individuals represented elsewhere in our collections, and other prominent Rhode Islanders were listed in the subject headings.

            Many legal files from the Greene Legal Papers (Mss 453) were transferred to this collection. All writs found in the Greene Legal Papers were transferred to this collection unless they specifically had Albert C. Greene's name somewhere on the writ. However, it is likely that some of the writs may be connected to cases of Albert C. Greene. The miscellaneous financial and letters folders were not individually examined to see if they went with a particular filed case. They have been foldered chronologically. The Greene Legal Papers contained an intermingling of the legal papers of Richard W. Greene and Albert C. Greene, therefore some of these legal papers in either collection may pertain to the other individual. Great efforts have been made to properly distinguish among them, but the papers were at one point improperly interfiled.

            Many items have been transferred to other collections. A detailed transfer list can be found in the collection file.
