I have a terribly insignificant question here.
 
I keep running into men born in Virginia and Maryland in the
early 19th century with the first name "Greenberry."  Does anyone know where that name came from?  None of them I've
looked at seems to have the Greenberry surname in the pedi-
gree.
 
And while I'm asking, how about "Covington"?  And "John Nelson"?  There is a raft of "John Nelson So-and-So"'s in the
part of southern Ohio mostly settled by Virginians in the same
time period.
