Samuel Green (printer)

The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments, translated into the Massachusetts Indian Language. Printed by Samuel Green and Marmaduke Johnson, Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1663

Samuel Green (1615 – January 1, 1702) was an early American printer, the first of several printers from the Green family who followed in his footsteps. One of Green's major accomplishments as a printer was the Eliot Indian Bible, translated by the missionary John Eliot, typeset by James Printer, which became the first Bible to be printed in British America in 1663.[1][2][3] Members of his family who also became printers include his sons Bartholomew, Bartholomew Green Jr. and Joseph Dennie.[4] Throughout his adult life Green also served in the Massachusetts Bay Colonial Militia, advancing to the rank of captain later in life.[5]
