My great-great grandfather is J.P. Beresford. I'm a descendant of J.P.B and His wife Mary Anne Gallaway. Their son Henry James Beresford married twice, to Marion Gaskell Thomas (1) and to Earle Foster Rapley (2). H.J.B and wife #2 had four children, one of whom is my grandfather.

My great grandfather was John Pattinson Beresford, his son Henry James Beresford my grandfather and his son, Leonard Henry Beresford my Dad. Great Grandpa's middle name has been spelt many ways. On his birth certificate it is spelt "Patteson" even though his Mum's name was spelt
"Pattinson". On his death certificate it's spelt "Patterson" and on his headstone at Fremantle Cemetery it is spelled "Pattison". Often happened over many years depending on who was completing the necessary documentation.
