Record Search

If you want to search for records for any name in this family tree, or for any other family name, just click below on the first letter of the family name you are interested in. This will open a new tab in your browser giving you a list of family names beginning with that letter, for which there are baptism records in our database of half a million church and public registry records.

You can also select marriages or burials. Select the name you want and when the list of records is displayed you can easily refine the search, choosing a single parish, given name(s) and/or start and end dates.

The records are displayed 30 to a page, but by selecting the yellow Wiki Table option at the top left of the page you can open a full, scrollable list. This list will either be displayed in a new tab or a pop-up window. You may have to edit the settings of your browser to allow pop-up windows for www.jerripediabmd.net. For the small number of family names for which a search generates more than 1,500 records you will have to refine your search (perhaps using start or end dates) to reduce the number of records found.

↑ Marriage record not found, but confirmed by baptism record of Pierre
↑ Merchant. He was the merchant who was in partnership with Peter de Carteret, in Arichat, Canada, engaged in the Maritime fisheries. Their 80 ton schooner in 1823 was named after Le Vesconte and his wife Jane, being the Peter and Jane. De Carteret was, at that time, still a bachelor. This firm owned, between 1823 and 1850, at least half a dozen ships and operated many fishing posts in and around Cape Breton Island. One vessel, a 75 ton brig, was named in 1831 Two Friends, a justified tribute to a firm well spoken of in Jersey circles. Late in life, de Carteret was to marry Le Vesconte`s daughter

Born in Jersey in 1822, Le Vesconte was sent at the age of 12 to Arichat (Cape Breton Island) to work for the family firm of de Carteret and Le Vesconte in the cod trade. By the time he was 17, Le Vesconte was master of one of the firm`s ships trading to Puerto Rico. About 1855, Peter de Carteret returned to Jersey and Isaac Le Vesconte took charge at Arichat. Le Vesconte entered local politics in 1863, being elected to the Legislative Assembly as representative for Richmond County, in which Arichat was situated. He was financial secretary in the provincial administration of 1863-4...In 1865 Le Vesconte was one of the representatives of Nova Scotia on a British North American mission to open trade with the West Indies, Mexico and Brazil. He was elected to the Canadian House of Commons as member for Richmond in 1869. Le Vesconte resigned his seat in 1874 and died at Arichat in 1879."
