Sohier family page and links to other trees

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.

Notes and references

  1. No information has been found about Estienne's background. His marriage to Susanne and the baptisms of their three children appear in the church registers for Grouville and Trinity, but he has not been linked to any of the Sohiers in Jersey in the previous 80 years. His birth year has been taken from online trees and has not been substantiated
  2. Marriage record not found, but confirmed by children's baptism records
  3. Marriage record not found, but confirmed by son's baptism record
  4. No baptism records found for four of their nine children. Online trees show them born in Montreal, Canada. The family then returned to Jersey
  5. Tobacconist at Snowhill, 1898
