Essex. Other records show the name could have been a baptismal name derived from the expression
the son of Beatrice from the
nickname Bete. Early Origins of the Beddissone family

Migration of the Beddissone family to the New World and Oceana
To escape the unstable social climate in
England of this time, many families boarded ships for the New World with the hope of finding land, opportunity, and greater religious and political freedom. Although the voyages were expensive, crowded, and difficult, those families that arrived often found greater opportunities and freedoms than they could have experienced at home. Many of those families went on to make significant contributions to the rapidly developing colonies in which they settled. Early North American records indicate many people bearing the name Beddissone were among those contributors: J. Bettinson who arrived in Ontario in 1879.
