William Greene was the son of Samuel and Mary (Gorton) Greene, and grandson of John Greene of Warwick, who had spent most of his long life as a public servant, including 10 years as the Deputy Governor of the colony. His great grandfather, also named John Greene, had come from Salisbury, Wiltshire, England, was a surgeon, and an early settler of Warwick in the colony of Rhode Island. His great grandfather on his mother's side was Samuel Gorton, the founder of Warwick, and for a very short period the governor of the two towns of Providence and Warwick.
