Jefferis - from an old family name from northeastern England. 

Jefferis Peterson, b.1954, a Web pioneer, produced one of the first magazines distributed over the Internet in 1993. The e-journal was called  O Theophilus. It was distributed on Common Ground with graphics and text for Windows and Macintosh users, long before Adobe PDF became the standard internet document format.

He was also one of the first to produce fully linked academic courses for the internet. He became a developer of online education services for The Center For Biblical Literacy, and he worked with that agency until 1998. Some of this early work is now available on The Scholar's Corner. In 1999, Jefferis launched Peterson Sales, as a web design and marketing company. His designs won several "Top Site" awards for his clients on places like NBCi and Christsites.

Jefferis is also an author of the book "Pardoned or Paroled? Escaping the Prison of Guilt & Finding Freedom in Christ" published by Isaiah House, Erie PA.
