Notes - As a general comment, the transcriptions of baptism etc seem to be inconsistent, for the same person between GREENBERRY and GREENBURY. Given this, all the people with this name have been called GREENBERRY pending my own investigations of the registers, on the basis that this appears to be more common, and is probably the original name. The other potential issue here is that Sudbury is about 20 miles to the south of Woolpit, Tostock etc, so either this is the wrong family, or her parents moved there for the period 1772 - 1776 approx.
There is a record of Elizabeth Greenberry marrying Thomas CALVER 12/2/1798, at Timworth which is close to Woolpit, but no evidence to confirm it this is the right person. She was buried nearby on 30/4/1843, aged 69, hence born 1774. A possible census record for 1841 exits, with them both given as "60", and a son Henry, probably his wife and their grandchildren. There is also Elizabeth Greenberry buried 26/5/1838, birth 1769, which is close.
