Record Search

If you want to search for records for any name in this family tree, or for any other family name, just click below on the first letter of the family name you are interested in. This will open a new tab in your browser giving you a list of family names beginning with that letter, for which there are baptism records in our database of half a million church and public registry records.

You can also select marriages or burials. Select the name you want and when the list of records is displayed you can easily refine the search, choosing a single parish, given name(s) and/or start and end dates.

The records are displayed 30 to a page, but by selecting the yellow Wiki Table option at the top left of the page you can open a full, scrollable list. This list will either be displayed in a new tab or a pop-up window. You may have to edit the settings of your browser to allow pop-up windows for www.jerripediabmd.net. For the small number of family names for which a search generates more than 1,500 records you will have to refine your search (perhaps using start or end dates) to reduce the number of records found.

Notes and references

  1. ↑ Of La Porte, Rue du Becquet ès Chats, Ville à L`Evêque, Trinity. Jean de Gruchy was perhaps the man of this name who was captain in 1782 of the privateer Lively, J. Jean, Stories of Jersey`s Ships,160. Items of interest still retained by the family, which were previously at The Elms (La Mare), include telescopes, a sword and mid-18th century charts, one of which, by M.

There are several examples in Jersey of Militia Artillery commissions being acquired in middle-age by former privateer officers on settling ashore. This was probably the case in this instance. There is certainly a tradition in the family that their early 19th century prosperity owed much to the sea
