I now have the information from the birth registrations of both Gabrielle and her brother Charles and as suspected no father is named and the mother was Louise Madeleine Le Roy.

Gabrielle's school admission record names her father as Ralph. Gabrielle's marriage record names her father as Ralph.
However there is no Ralph Leroy in any Jersey Archive or in any census records

I suspect she was an illegitimate daughter of Louise Madelaine.
Next stop - birth registration.

I've finally found Gabrielle's marriage and can go and look at the certificate next week so we'll have the name of her father.

Louise Rochefort's alien's card is interesting. Aliens had to inform the authorities when they left the island and Louise's card shows her leaving for England in 1947 and 1949 to visit Mrs G Ingram at Napier Square, North Camp, Aldershot.

Aliens cards and the identity cards issued by the German occupiers were 2 completely different things. Alien's cards were issued in 1920 and were held by all aliens over the age of 16. Occupation reg cards had to be held by everyone who stayed in Jersey between 1940 and 1945 once they were over the age of 14.

The address Deauville is on the reg card and was the name of the property occupied by Gabrielle, Charles Louis and one Louise Madeleine Rochefort, probably née Le Roy and a daughter of Charles Louis Auguste. The reg card gives the information that both Charles Louis and Gabrielle were born in St Helier while Louise was born in France.

It seems unlikely that Gabrielle and Charles Louis were children of Charles Louis Auguste and Marie Le Begue as Marie would have been in her mid 60s when Gabrielle was born.
