Have a look at Jerripedia (jersey) and Donkepedia( guernsey) sites.Super sites with loads of info and if you are lucky family trees.
I know St Helier have birth records on line.
Look at the Channel Island resources on this site.

St Helier on-line baptism records only go from 1842 until just after 1900 and the family trees tend to be of old established Channel Island families, usually with links back to France.

The Jersey Archive site, www.jerseyheritagetrust.jeron.je holds record cards for everyone who was in Jersey during the German Occupation, 1941-1945 which contain a wealth of information.

Can anyone help with this family:

"JEAN LOUIS FRANCOIS HEUZE" b18/6/1924 Rozel/Trinity/Jersey
Father "ERNEST JOHN HEUZE"
Mother "JOSPEHINE MARIE LE LERRE"

I have the birth record and possible 1911 census entries for the parents.

Thanks in advance,

Phil

I heard yesterday from the Channel Islands newsletter that they are working hard to get the St Helier baptisms all on line,The site has had so much added to it recently it may be worth a look.
