James C. Green was born March 10, 1860, in Arlington, Rush County, Indiana. The son of Dr. James Wilkinson Green and Mary Jane Gowdy, he was the seventh of 13 siblings. Six of those siblings became doctors, including James and his brother, John D. Green (my great great grandfather.) James attended courses at the newly-formed Medical College of Indiana, which was a department of Butler University. Following his graduation in 1880, James began his practice as a physician alongside his father in Arlington.

On October 23, 1883, James was married to Azzie E. Winship, a young woman from Rushville, Indiana. The couple had two children -- an infant daughter who died in 1885 and a son, Hugh Clifford Green, born on December 31, 1886.

In 1892, James C. Green was chosen to be a delegate to the Indiana Republican convention. The convention, which was held on June 28 at the Princess Rink in Fort Wayne, lasted for only one day. The event drew such a large crowd that officials threatened to clear the hall to make room for all the delegates waiting to get inside. In the chaos, James was pushed against a door knob and critically wounded. Sadly, he died from his injuries a few weeks later.
