being Orlando and Mary (Easel) Greening, the former born in Alabama in 1823, and the latter in New York State, August 25, 1825. The father was
a farmer by occupation and emigrated from Alabama to Mississippi, and from there to Arkansas in 1845, and settled on a large tract of woodland
in Ouachita County, where he built a log cabin,and made his home until his death, which occurred on January 1, 1887. He was a soldier in the
Mexican War, and served for a short time in the late Civil War, and socially was a member of the Masonic order, and was an earnest member of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, of which his wife was also a member. A family of six sons and two daughters were born to himself and wife:
