They would all be from the Covey line that Pam Wood Waugh has chronicled, see: http://www.uftree.com/UFT/WebPages/PamWoodWaugh/COVEY/index.htm#toc Samuel was sent north from NY in 1777, might have spent time in NH before that, was born in ??, Of ?? But most probably descended from the James Covey of Braintree Ma. family, as is yours. With so few early Covey's it just seems that they can all be tied together some how. Especially now, with the internet and all. So many names, and so little time. Good luck in your searches.
