About 'Bereth'
Christopher Tolkien said that 'Bereth' was a mistake in The War of the Jewels, 'The Later Quenta Silmarillion', 'The new genealogies of the Edain/'The House of Beor', p. 232:
"...in my note on this (p. 214, note 10 [in the 'Unfinished Tales']) I referred to her [Erendis'] descent as given in the present genealogical table, but gave her ancestor's name wrongly as 'Bereth'."
