Anna Maria {{Surname|Flickinger}}, the oldest resident of her sex in Green, and eldest child of Peter {{Surname|Flickinger}}, was born on the 1st day of August in 1814, in Somerset County in the State of Pennsylvania. At the age of 9 months she came with her father and mother to Green township when they settled upon the south east quarter of section No. 9 whereon she has since been living. Despite many a change has she since seen be wrought upon the face of Green. The "field of grain" then waved not here- there waved but "weed" and "forest tree". "Spire on Church" then reared not here - none reared here then but "mighty oak". "Sweet organ Son" then sang not here- then none but "Toad" and "Bull Frong" sang.

At the age of 9 months she came with her father and mother to Green township, when they settled upon the south east quarter of section No. 9. whereon she has since been living. Quite many a change has she since seen, be wrought upon the face of Green. The "field of grain" then waved not here - there waved but "weed" and "forest tree". "Spire on Church" then reared not here - none reared here then but "mighty oak". "Sweet Organ Song" then sang not here- then none but "Toad" and "Bull Frog" sang.
