Families associated with the property

• Benest: Tamale was the home of Stuart and Dorothy Benest and family, owners of Benest's of Millbrook in the second half of the 20th century

• Clement Like the majority of houses in Rue de Haut, Belle Greve was built in the 19th century for affluent owners and has no connections with the farming community. For many years the property was owned by the Clement family from St Brelade, and it passed through many generations. They provided sea captains and retained strong connections with the Gaspé area of Quebec until early in the 20th century
