Descendants of Charles Dobin



This submitted tree has been checked against Jersey records, which appeared to show that the family came to the island from Dorset, not Somerset, as shown in a number of online trees. However, the marriage record for Mary Ann, which was not found before, shows that she was born in Somerset, although her brother Charles and father Charles were born in Dorset, so the family clearly moved around the West Country before settling in Jersey. Online trees contain some significant errors, both of dates and names of spouses

The tree was added in 2017 and reviewed in 2018, when marriage records and occupations were added

In common with the majority of our trees, this descendancy has been subject to regular review by site editors and checked against Jersey church records. Trees including French ancestry have also been checked as far as possible against French primary records. It is not always possible to carry out such checks on sections of trees with United Kingdom and/or colonial content

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 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.

  4. Online trees show Rebecca Elizabeth as the daughter of Charles Walker and Esther Larbalestier, but the record of her marriage to Charles George Dobin shows her as Rebecca Larbalestier, daughter of Charles Larbalestier, plasterer. There was a marriage between Charles Walker and Esther Sophie Larbalestier in St Helier in 1861, so it is possible that Rebecca was the illegitimate daughter of Esther Sophie four years before her marriage, but it seems surprising that she and her step-father would have been named as Larbalestier on her marriage certificate. The only Rebecca Elizabeth Walker we have been able to find born and baptised in Jersey is shown in the St Saviour register in 1850 as the daughter of Francis Vesey Walker and Charlotte Holt
