About Greeenberry Cheney

Named after Colonel Nicholas Greenberry (December 1627 - December 17, 1697), 4th Royal Governor of Maryland. Many boy children in Maryland were named after him, and the tradition continued through other states until its origin was forgotten and the name became a mere "family tradition".
