Notes
The marriage of Alexander to Maria. This marriage took place on 11th October 1896 at St Peter Walworth. This Alexander married a Maria YOUNG and his father is down as David BERESFORD (deceased) a Boot Closer, so all looks fine to that point but Alexander has put himself down as being 30 years of aged so born in 1861 from Censuses he appears to have been born in 1853, (18 on 1871 Census), however his wife is down as only being 27 so perhaps he felt he should give an age nearer to hers.
On the 1901 Census he is aged 40 so born 1861 but he is down as being born at St Martin which is correct and on the 1911 Census he is down as being 48 and born in Berry Bedford which although not making much sense in 1851 at Bedford Bury, Saint Martin in the Fields and in 1871 at 9 Bedfordbury, St Martin in the Fields. So from all this I do think although he is given his ages incorrectly this is out Alexander.
Finally there is a death for an Alexander BERESFORD in March quarter 1932 iN Wandsworth district, London and on this his age at death is given as 76 so born in 1856 which again if correct Alexander is only three years out of the age given on 1871 Census.
