Hello Nooshie,

I too have a BISSON in my family! 

Violet Ada Bisson was born about 1877.  She married warehouse worker James William Davies and lived in St Helier Jersey.

They had two children Violet Irene Mary Davies and Lillian Beatrice Davies.

It would be great to hear from you if you think there might be a connection....

Thanks.

Hannah

Hi All

Don't want to put a dampener but Bisson is a very common name in Jersey.

If you inquire at the Jersey Archive, some kind person has deposited the Bisson familytree (could save you a lot of work).

Thanks Stewart.

I didn't know that Bisson was a common name in Jersey as I haven't come across the name in England.

I'll contact the Jersey Archives and see what they have on the Bisson family tree.  It will be amazing if there is a connection!

Thanks again.
