Draft:Thomas C. Green

Thomas C. Green (November 5, 1820 – December 4, 1889) was a justice of the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia from his appointment on December 24, 1875 until his death on December 4, 1889.

Green was born in 1820 in Culpepper County, Virginia. His father was one of the judges of the Virginia Court of Appeals. His brother, William Green, was regarded as the finest lawyer in Virginia. He died in late 1889 in Charlestown, West Virginia. At his death, one West Virginia newspaper declared: "Judge Green stood at the head of his profession in this State, and his private character was as pure as his opinions were able. His place will be hard to fill."

Green was a Democrat. Gov. E. Willis Wilson appointed Daniel B. Lucas, who was Green's law partner for many years, to replace him on the court.
