TreeIcon.png


This tree was researched from parish registers and other records following the receipt in 2017 of the photograph of John Villeneuve Nicolle, who died in his early 20s in Turkey. The tree was reviewed by Guy Dixon in 2021 and extended by two generations at the top, with a considerable amount of detail added throughout the tree

In common with the majority of our trees, this descendancy has been subject to regular review by site editors and checked against Jersey church records. Trees including French ancestry have also been checked as far as possible against French primary records. It is not always possible to carry out such checks on sections of trees with United Kingdom and/or colonial content

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. ↑ Jean Nicolle`s marriage entry in St John`s Register reads: "Jean Nicolle, fils Philippe, de St Jean and Marguerite Le Vesconte, fille Michel, de Ste Marie," thus providing the name of the groom`s father, as well as that of the bride
  2. ↑ Godparents: Mr Philippe Le Vesconte of St Mary and his wife
  3. ↑ Godparents: Mr Michel Le Vesconte and Mse Elizabeth Boille
  4. ↑ "Me Pierre Dallain and Mse Marguerite Nicolle, his wife" were in 1767 the godparents of Elizabeth Marguerite Nicolle, the elder daughter of Mr Philippe Nicolle and Mse Elizabeth Mauger, his wife, who married Lieutenant Jean Poingdestre
  5. ↑ Philippe Nicolle senior died in May 1835, and his son, Philippe Nicolle, the Jurat, died in January that year. The age at death of the father was given as 88 years. He would thus have been born between May 1746 and May 1747. The early St John Register entries halt on 27 February 1746 and only resume in 1751. What record there was of baptisms between these dates, appears to have been lost. However, on strong godparent evidence, including that of Pierre Dallain and his wife, Philippe Nicolle senior can be identified as being a son of Jean Nicolle and Marguerite Le Vesconte (see below). A datestone at the family property, Hérupe, reads PNC 1766, suggesting that Philippe had inherited the property by then
  6. ↑ Landowner and Wool Merchant. Unsuccessful candidate for Constable of St John, 1784
  7. ↑ Niece of Josue Mauger (1725-1788)
  8. ↑ Lieutenant, R.N.
  9. ↑ Constable of St John, 1795-1798, as "Philippe Nicolle junior;" Jurat, 1810-1835; Merchant in the Wool Trade, and then in that of Newfoundland cod (1792); Shipbuilder. His family, in the mid-18th century, were affluent farmers in the Vingtaine of Herupe, St John, who had then become prominent Wool Merchants. Their first vessel was said to have been built beside their St John home, in situ, and then transported to the sea. Thus was begun, a fleet that went from one vessel in 1792, to seven in 1816, in partnership with their brother-in-law Philippe Winter. They were, in 1816, the Island`s leading shipowners. Their fleet, moreover, continued to increase in size over the next twelve years. In 1828, Philippe Nicolle owned no less than eighteen vessels. Their head office and stores were at 22, Commercial Buildings, St Helier. In 1828, he and others founded the Jersey Banking Company

  18. ↑ Of 1 Portland Place, St Helier in 1851 (St Helier Census). Merchant and shipowner in the Newfoundland fisheries. The Nicolle firm was badly affected by the American Civil War having caused loss of sales in the southern states, one of their principal markets. In 1863 they withdrew from their banking partnership and sold ships and assets in Newfoundland. Joshua Mauger Nicolle, however, managed to survive this crisis by entering into a new partnership with his nephew, Clement Augustus de Quetteville, as "Nicolle, de Quetteville and Co." Misfortune struck again, in the form of Jersey`s 1873 bank crashes, occasioned by an international depression. Their remaining Newfoundland assets were mostly purchased by de Gruchy, Renouf, Clement and Co.
