: Does anybody know what "Greenwich Manners" means and what the origin is?
That's not a phrase I've ever heard, but as an American from the Northeast I instinctively associated it with Greenwich, Connecticut, a sterotypical "rich town" just outside New York City. According to Wikipedia they have about 50% more registered Republicans than Democrats. Money plus Republicans equals "old money" in the Northeast, and "old money" equals concern with manners that "new money" and "old poverty" don't stereotypically have.
