Green, Lewis Warner, 1806-1863

 
Green was born in Kentucky and earned a degree from Centre College in Danville in 1824. He was ordained in 1838 but spent most of his career in academia, teaching at Centre and the Western Theological Seminary (now Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, 1840-47), and serving as president of Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia (1849-56); Transylvania University in Lexington, Kentucky (1856-58); and Centre College (1858-63).

Additional information can be found on Green’s Wikipedia page, and in Leroy Jones Halsey, Memoir of the Life and Character of Rev. Lewis Warner Green, with a Selection from His Sermons (New York, Charles Scribner & Co., 1871).
