I've actually found several Virginia marriages listed as "Greenbriar" not only at Ancestry, but other lists and books as well - and then I found the original marriage bonds in the "Goochland" Circuit Courthouse... No one seems to have an idea how that got started. Was there ever a connection between Greenbriar (which is in West VA) and Goochland?
