1846, November 11. Born Anna Catherine Green to Katherine Ann Whitney Green and James Wilson Green. Her family was living in Brooklyn across the street from Plymouth Church, the Presbyterian church in which she was baptised. Before her birth the family had lived at 59 Hicks Street in a narrow clapboard house they shared with relatives and in a rented house at 147 Adams Street.
When Green was born, Walt Whitman was editing the Brooklyn Eagle (1846-1848). Brooklyn Heights was home to many lawyers, who practiced in Manhattan. Green's office was at 27 Fulton Street near the courthouse.
1848-1849 Fire destroyed much of the downtown area, Plymouth Church burned, cholera broke out, and Green's mother died following childbirth. Green was three and she was raised by an older sister who was sixteen. She had two older brothers.
1849 The family left Brooklyn for temporary residences in Connecticut and Albany, then settled in Buffalo. In 1857 they were living at50 Pearl Street and her father's office was at 9 Harvey Block. There were 15 attorneys in the city of 81,000 residents. (Maida, 1989) Green summered with her cousins in East Haddam, Connecticut.
1866 In June Green graduated from Ripley Female College in Poultney, Vermont, one of the few colleges to accept women. Her stepmother encouraged her education and her writing. There she bacame president of the Washington Irving Association and planned to become a poet. (The college is now Green Mountain Junior College.)
After graduation Green returned to the family home. The family had been living in Haverstraw, NY but moved to a rented apartment at either 12 or 34 Murray Street in the Murray Hill neighborhood in Manhattan. Green's father was a strong patriarch and the family now included the wives of her two older brothers. Green wrote poetry, of which her father approved, and wrote secretly her first book of detective fiction, filling notebooks that she hid in her closet for the six years it took to complete the manuscript.
1878 Publication of The Leavenworth Case. It was an overnight success that sold 750,000 copues in the next 15 years. The book was praised for the mastery of legal points and was used at Yale University to demonstrate the fallacy of circumstantial evidence.
The whole family was living at 543 Henry Street in Brooklyn Heights near where Green was born. Her father was then in his seventies and in semi-retirement. Her older sister never married and my have been the model for one of her detectives, Amelia Butterworth.
(According to Maida, with the publication of Leavenworth Case, Green changed her middle name from "Catherine" to "Katharine." The biographer gave no explanation except that it was part of assuming a professional image.)
