Alderney, Guernsey, Jersey, Sark / The D'Assigny family of Jersey
« on: Saturday 17 June 06 17:37 BST (UK) »
Hi Chatters,
I am looking for any parish register information on my descendant Pierre D'Assigny and his family. He was a French Huguenot refugee who was appointed Rector of St Helier 1638-1643 and Rector of St Martin 1645-1660. He and his wife Elizabeth (Marins) were married in London in 1636 and had at least two children in Jersey, Marius born 1642/3 and Elizabeth (birth N/K). It is highly likely that Elizabeth predeceased Pierre for he remarried (for the third time), possibly in Jersey. Marius married Elizabeth Effard in 1668 and I believe she was also born in Jersey.
Many thanks.
