Green B. McGuire was so old he forgot his own age. Lied to get into the war? Who knows! But he was born in 1841 not 1835 which appears on his stone. Yes, a DeSoto paper as well as a St Louis paper did an article on his being 100 years old but unfortunately he was not.

Green was married twice. Once to a Mary Placet Lore (which her surname has family members arguing). To this union there were 7 children. Green's 2nd wife is Mary Missouri Derickson. To this union there were 4 children.
