Dear Ronan,
Thanks for the very interesting information.Actually I'd thought of looking in the Churchill family book to see if we intermarried with Jeromes (Jennie's maiden name) over here. And Sunny's (9th Duke of M/borough) mother, remarries William (?) Beresford.
I have more information:John Beresford, Henderson Co., Ellen B., McClean Co. in 1860 Illinois census.Probably connection to William.Also Mrs. Margaret Berresford (John's widow?) marries Robert Condlen in 1871 in Henderson Cty. Ill.There is also a Michael Beresford in New York City in 1860.There are other families from County Antrim in Henderson Co. as of 1860:families names are Gibb, Sloan, Stevenson, Hutchinson. Does anyone know any connection to Beresfords by these folk?
Best
