Sheri -- I'm going to guess it is an arrowwood viburnum (Viburnum dentatum) or something in the viburnum family. Arrowwood viburnum is native.

Hi, I have a question I hope someone can answer. We just bought this house, built in 1933. There are "walls" of some kind of shrub that had small green berries on them this summer which are just now turning to a blue that is about the color of blueberries, however that is not what they are. The berries are kind of clustered along the stems.
