- History of Port Gibson Mississippi
Among early things of interest is that Andrew Jackson was so delighted with the homes of Abner and Tom Green when he visited them at Gayosa's summer home and at Springfield in the 1780's, that he acquired a tract of land where Bayou Pierre emptied into the Mississippi River and there built a cabin, trading post and race track. (This was a Spanish land Grant.) After he and Rachel were married at Tom Green?s Springfield, they spent their honeymoon of two or three months here (1791).
Encyclopedia of Mississippi history:
During the time of the Spanish occupation of Ntchez, district, "Thomas M. Green and Abner Green were young men at the time, though both were men of family. To both of them Jackson, at different times, sold negroes, and the writer now has bills of sale for negroes sold to Abner Green, in the handwriting of Jackson, bearing his signature, written, as it always was, in large and bold characters, extending quite half across the sheet."
