This information was sent to me by a Mrs. Owen concerning the name Greenberry.

" The name Greenberry was quite popular in Maryland.  I recall seeing a list
of some early taxpayers and perhaps as many as 1/6 of them had Greenberry as a
first or 
middle name.  When the puritans were tossed out of Virginia in about the
1640's,
they landed at Greenberry's Point in Maryland; and I assume with no
information
to back it up, that the name is tradition as a result."

There's one possible explanation.
