I didn't see anything above about the origin of the name, and it's impossible to know if it's grammatically correct without that. If, for example, the beach/area was named after James Weir, then "Weir's Beach" would be grammatically correct.
This website, however, says the origin comes from the word for Native American fishing traps used in that area: "Weir(s)."
If that is accurate, the apostrophe should never have been used as the "s" indicates plurality, not ownership.
