	Hi Katie -- it actually says: Grenwich which is an enumerator's phonetic spelling of Greenwich all as transcribed by the geographically ignorant and uninstructed Ancestry scribes. (Could someone really not have given them an atlas??) Phew. Isn't that better? And good on you for making corrections at Ancestry! I hope you get contacted by far-flung long-lost cousins -- I have been. ;)
