"Stanhope Parish, the most extensive in the county of Durham, formerly comprised, with its dependent chapelries, an area of 54,780 acres, and extended from the parish of Wolsingham on the south-east to the boundaries of the county of Cumberland on the west. It was bounded on the north-east and north by the parishes of Muggleswick, Edmund Byers, and Hunstanworth, and part of the county of Northumberland, and on the south and south-west by Middleton in Teesdale. During the past thirty years no less than six distinct parishes have been formed, several of which were, however, chapelries previous to that time. The following are the parishes referred to, as having formerly been comprised in the original parish of Stanhope - Eastgate, Frosterley, Heathery Cleugh, Rookhope, St. John's Weardale, and Westgate. Frosterley parish also comprises a portion of Wolsingham.
[From History, Topography and Directory of Durham, Whellan, London, 1894]
Rookhope
"This was formerly a portion of the extensive and ancient parish of Stanhope, and was for many years a chapelry, but in 1866 it was constituted a separate parish. It boundaries are - Hunstanworth on the north, Eastgate on the south, Westgate on the west, Edmondbyers and Stanhope. The area of the parish is about 880 acres, and the population in 1891 was 560."
[From History, Topography and Directory of Durham, Whellan, London, 1894]
"The village of Rookhope is situated on the fell, and somewhat isolated, about five miles north-west from Stanhope, and about six miles from Allenheads. There are Wesleyan and Methodist chapels here."
"Boltsburn is another village, which derives its name from a burn or stream running at right angles to Rookhope burn. Rookhope Burn joins the Wear at Eastgate. The principal employment of the inhabitants of this parish is farming, lead-mining, quarrying, and the railway of the Weardale Coal and Iron Company. The leadmining is carried on by the Weardale lead Company, who have mines situated at Boltsburn and Groverake in this parish, and others in the parishes of Westgate and Heatherycleugh. The railway of the Weardale Coal and iron Company runs from Park Head, in the parish of Stanhope, where it joins the North-eastern line, through Rookhope, to Westgate, and is used for the conveyance of coal, limestone, lead, &c. Coal for the village, smelt-mill, and Westgate; limestone from the quarry of the Weardale Coal and Iron Company to their iron-works, and lead from the mines to the smelt-mill, and thence to the market."

There are only 3 John Greenwell in the right age range in the 1841 and 1851 Census. From 1851 data, two were born in Co. Durham and one is living in Alston, Cumberland, which fits in that fact that his parents moved there around 1802 - 1804.
