"....that a male descendant of John's brother Beverly was descended...."
From the text. But John's 'brother' with the name 'Beverly'. Is it not a brother, or is that not the actual name, which seems to be feminine. (Dumarest (talk) 20:25, 3 September 2012 (UTC))Reply
At that time Beverley/Beverly was also a man's name (or first a man's name.) The first surviving child of Sally Hemings and Jefferson was Beverly Hemings. His brother Eston Hemings named one of his sons for him. It's sourced.Parkwells (talk) 21:05, 3 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
