Greenleaf, who is named in the Chart as the common ancestor, was born in the
parish of Brixham, and county of Devonshire, near Torbay, in England, about
the year 1600. He married Sarah Dole and had several children born in England. In the year 1635 he came to America with
his family and settled in Newbury, Mass.
He lived near “Old Town Bridge” where for some he kept a tavern. He was by trade a silk-dyer. About the year
1650, he removed to Boston where he buried his wife, and afterwards married a
Widow Hill, who had several children by a former husband. This marriage was
rather an unhappy one. In the early

– From all that can be gathered, it is
believed that the ancestors of the Greenleaf family were Huguenots, who left
France on account of their religious princi0ples, sometime in the course of
the 16th century and settled in England. The name was probably
translated from the French Fuillevert.
