Today's Challenge
We are now on Day #21 of the Family History Scavenger Hunt. Have you ever heard of the Channel Islands? They are a set of small islands in the English Channel close to France but part of the United Kingdom. They even have their own language which isn’t quite French and definitely not English called Jèrriais. Today we will explore family history records for the area using the Jerripedia BMD records (http://www.jerripediabmd.net/).
Hints
There are two main sets of records that can be searched from the http://www.jerripediabmd.net/ website, birth/marriage/death records and wills. Make sure you are using the correct search engine for the records to answer the questions.
Question #1. Search the Birth/Baptism records for James Le Boeuf baptized 1820. What was his baptism date?
Question #2. Who were James Le Boeuf’s parents?
Question #3. Find the marriage for George Vickery from St. Helier. What was the name of his bride?
Question #4. Go to the Wills search and search for Frederick Le Boeuf which was probated July 27, 1896. What was his occupation?
Question #5. Where were Frederick Le Boeuf’s children born?
Bonus Question (optional). Wills can have more information than just the abstracted information. Click on the file number for Frederick Le Boeuf’s will. This will bring you to the Jersey Heritage website. How much would it cost to get a copy of the will?
Comments. What did you think of this task? Was it too easy? Too difficult? Just right? Did you have fun exploring the Irish Genealogy website?
