[or-roots] Greenberry

[Roy Blaine]

My wife's family has Greenberrys in it - Greenberry Pumphrey and various iterations among descendants, but they were in Maryland, not Oregon.

 

But some make you wonder.  My mother used to talk about some girls she knew - I believe in the Eugene area - named Ima and Ura Hogg.
