June 1786 CE

North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia had all voted General Nathanael Greene liberal grants of lands and money, including an estate called "Boone's Barony" which was south of Edisto in Bamberg County, South Carolina, and Mulberry Grove Plantation near Savannah, Georgia.

He sold Boone's Barony to pay bills for the rations of his Southern army.

After twice refusing the post of Secretary of War, Greene settles in 1785 on his Georgia estate at Mulberry Grove.

He dies here at age forty-three, on June 19, 1786.

Greene was an original member of the Rhode Island Society of the Cincinnati and serves as the Society's president from its founding in 1783 until his death in 1786.

He is succeeded by his son George Washington Greene, his grandson Dr. Nathanael Greene (who will serve as president of the Rhode Island Society), then by his great great grandson George Washington Greene Carpenter.
