!1782 - Identified as a widow of Benjamite Greene in the census of Kent County, RI

!Abt 1785 - Married secondly to Robert Cook.

!1797 -Moved to Otego, NY before 1800 with her husband, Robert, his three sons, and probably his daughter, Mary. Her grandson, Russell Weaver identifies her as Dinah "Lee" and this may be caused by her mother's maiden name confusion.

!1809: Received five dollars from her father's will because she had already received her portion.

!18 Oct 1811: received from her husband, Robert's will: "the mair I now ride, one cow, 5 sheep, half of all indoor movables and use of the other half during her lifetime. The last half to be divided finally among Robert, Rufus, and Mary. Dinah to receive one-third of profits of Real Estate."

She died after 18 Oct 1811.

There is a set of headstones within a wrought iron fenced area on the left side of the cemetery with the initials "D. G." on one and "R. C." on the other; it can only be assumed that these are the headstones for Dinah Greene and Robert Cook because they are next to the headstone for Robert Cook, Jr and his wife.

She is the sister of Samuel Greene who is also buried in the Cook Cemetery as well as Demaris Greene, first wife of Robert Cook, Sr. Her burial location is unknown.

With her first husband, Benjamite Greene, she is the mother of Louis (Lois) Greene Weaver and Diadama Greene Cook also buried in the Cook Cemetery.
