The mayberry Surname
mayberry Name Meaning and History
English and Irish: of uncertain origin; most probably an altered
form of Mowbray. It is also found as Maybury, which has
the form of an English habitational name. There is a place near Woking
in Surrey so called; however, this is not recorded until 1885 and is
probably derived from the surname. In England this surname is found
mainly in the West Midlands; it has also spread into Wales. In Ireland
this form is common in Ulster; MacLysaght records that it was taken
there from England in the 17th century.
