My husband's family also stems from a Greenawalt that changed to a Greenwood.We are descendants of Joseph Greenawalt/Greenwood from Hardin Co., KY.He was born in 1815/1816 and his first wife was Elizabeth Lewis.They moved to Macoupin Co., IL in the 1840's.Then she died and he went back to Hardin Co., and married Hannah Hunly.He took Hannah back to Macoupin Co., IL and then they divorced in 1865.He moved to Kansas and married Hannah York.Died in Kansas.In all, he had 15 children.He, I think, was one of the ones who changed his name.He is probably kin to your Isaac, maybe a brother?Have you any new help to add to this mystery?
