It is bounded on the north by Milton, on the east by Baughman, on the south by East Union, and on the west by Wayne. The surface of the township is slightly rolling, and in soil very fertile and productive. Its principle streams are Little Chippewa in the south east running north west, and Sugar Creek in the north west running south east. Both of these streams are emptying into the Tuscarawas. It is six miles square and contains thirty-six sections. Green township is well-watered each quarter-section being supplied with at least one good spring. When found in its pristine state, it was covered all over with a dense and heavy forest, with the exception of a square spot of about twelve acres on the south west quarter of section three. This spot being entirely clear from any timber, stump, and even roots. Tall and heavy timber surrounded it on all sides; but when and by whom it was cleared, or what caused it thus to be, has never been discovered. As it appeared that some corn had been raised thereon, by the Indians, the early settlers called it "The Indian Field". Green, in general, had more heavy timber than any of the other townships in the county. The largest tree ever found within the county was a "White Oak", which stood on the south east quarter of section 22, in this township. This large tree measured a little over 23 feet in circumference, stump high. The timber covering the upland, chiefly consisted of white oak interspersed with hickery (''sic''), chestnut, red oak, black oak and walnut; and that on the bottom land and along the streams, principally consisted of sugar, maple and beech, mixed with hickery (''sic''), ash and elm. Thick underbrush abounded all over the township. Rank grass grew in abundence (sic) upon the low land and along the streams while tall weeds of every kind stood up from the soft, wet soil in their green living richness, to the hight (''sic'') of from two to six feet, all over the land. The face of the township being thus covered, presented it, in aspect, as a most dreary wilderness.
