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.
New records
From August 2020 we have started adding records from non-Anglican churches, and this process will continue as more records, held by Jersey Archive, are digitised and indexed. Our database now includes buttons enabling a search within registers of Roman Catholic, Methodist and other non-conformist churches. These records will automatically appear within the results of any search made from this page.

Origin of Surname
The name was first used as a given name, after Saint Albinus, Bishop of Angers in the 7th century AD, and developed into a family name. It is found in the Assize Roll of 1309 and the Jersey Chantry Certificate of 1550 contains three Aubins.
Early records
The International Genealogical Index shows Marin Aubin born in St Saviour about 1470 and marrying in 1498, fathering children Benoiste, Catherine, Charles, Genette, Jean, Thomas and Marin.
Although there are only eight Aubin entries in the current Jersey telephone directory, the family was one of the most numerous in the island for several centuries. There are over 1,000 baptisms in our database.

A real postal rarity: A postcard sent from Russia to Mrs Aubin, at Gorey, in 1906. Our language skills have not deciphered the town on the postmark. We think the recipient was probably the widowed Mary Susan Aubin, nee Bertram, who lived in Gorey Village with her son John, a golf professional with the Royal Jersey Golf Club. Mary was married to Philip George Aubin -

Tips
The church record links above will open in a new tab in your browser and generate the most up-to-date list of each set of records from our database. These lists replace earlier Family page baptism lists, which were not regularly updated. They have the added advantage that they produce a chronological listing for the family name in all parishes, so you do not have to search through A-Z indexes, parish by parish.
We have included some important spelling variants on some family pages, but it may be worth searching for records for a different spelling variant. Think of searching for variants with or without a prefix, such as Le or De. To search for further variants, or for any other family name, just click on the appropriate link below for the first letter of the family name, and a new tab will open, giving you the option to choose baptism, marriage or burial records. You will then see a list of available names for that type of record and you can select any name from that list. That will display all records of the chosen type for that family name, and you can narrow the search by adding a given name, selecting a parish or setting start and end dates in the form you will see above. You can also change the family name, or search for a partial name if you are not certain of the spelling
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.
New records
Since August 2020 we have added several thousand new records from the registers of Roman Catholic, Methodist and other non-conformist churches. These will appear in date order within a general search of the records and are also individually searchable within the database search form
