Beresford is an English surname. It has its roots in the village of Beresford in the parish of Alstonefield, North Staffordshire, or perhaps in some cases from Burford (originally Berford), in Oxfordshire. The placenames are derived from the Olde English pre 7th Century words "beofor", meaning beaver, plus "forda", a shallow river crossing. In the Ashmole roll of 1322, there appears the name of Sir Symon Bereford of Warwickshire.〔http://www.surnamedb.com/Surname/Beresford〕 ==Notable people with the surname Beresford== *Benjamin Beresford (born 2002), actor on ITV's ''Coronation Street''. *Bruce Beresford (born 1940), Australian film director *Lord Charles Beresford (1846–1919), British Admiral and Member of Parliament * David Beresford (born 1976), retired English footballer *Alex Beresford TV weather presenter, model *Elisabeth Beresford (1926–2010), British children's author; creator of The Wombles *George Beresford, several people including - * *George Beresford (1765–1841), Irish clergyman * *Lord George Beresford (1781–1839), Irish-born British politician * *George Charles Beresford (1864–1938), Victorian studio photographer *Harry Beresford (1863–1944), British stage and film actor *Henry Beresford, 2nd Marquess of Waterford (1772–1826) *Herbert Beresford (1880–1938), Canadian land surveyor *Jack Beresford (1899–1977), English Rower, won medals at 5 separate Olympics *James Beresford, several people including - * *James Beresford (1764–1840), British clergyman and writer * *James Beresford (born 1989), Australian baseball player * *James Beresford, English footballer *J.
