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. ↑ Francois may have been born in 1725, at St Helier, the son of Thomas Hocquard and Elizabeth Gaudin
  2. ↑ Of Bella Vista Farm, Mont Arthur, St Brelade, master mariner. John Jean, in Jersey Sailing Ships (Phillimore, 1982), writes of Francois Hocquard: “a successful privateer captain”. Ships he commanded were Admiral Barrington (1790- ), Marquis of Townsend (1801-1803) and Dart (1803-1804). He retired from the sea in 1806, when his gunnery experience gained him a Lieutenancy of Batteries, SW Regiment of Militia. He died in 1816, aged 66 years. He was in 1801 described as “Francois Hocquard snr”, in the St Brelade register when godfather to Francois Jacques Hocquard, son of Francois jnr
  3. ↑ Died aged 94 years and 4 months
  4. ↑ Of Roche Bois, (on to which he built a Georgian house), Mont des Tours, St Brelade, master mariner, then merchant at St Aubin. He was perhaps master of Union (1804-1809) and then was master of Adventure (1819-1824), which he also owned. From 1824 he was a merchant and shipowner, living in St Aubin but engaged in the Canadian maritime fisheries. Marion Turk, in The Quiet Adventurers in Canada, records Francois' ownership, a Crown grant, of 214 acres at Arichat, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, where his fisheries were no doubt located. His business, trading with Montevideo, among other places, lasted 25 years, until 1844. The Francis Hocquard house flag was an anchor upon a white field. Francois Hocquard was Centenier of St Brelade and Lieutenant of Batteries, SW Regiment of Militia, in 1829. His burial on 7 April 1852 gives his age as 78 and rank/occupation as Gentilhomme, Rentier
  5. ↑ See Payne's Armorial of Jersey
  6. ↑ Godparents: Francois Hocquard senior and Esther Marett, his wife. Francois Jacques Hocquard entered his father`s merchant house and was probably his agent in Montevideo, where he subsequently settled. On 26 January 1864, in Montevideo, he established as his procureur Isaac Falla and sold property in St Brelade called La Glinette, purchased by his grandfather in 1797: RP232/187 and RP 84/204, respectively
  7. ↑ Of Montevideo, where he had been born, though he died in Paris. In 1870, he sold his grandfather`s home, Rochebois, St Aubin, to John Carrel, the son of another former St Aubin merchant and shipowner: RP 248/182. A short time afterwards, he sold a further house and rentes: RP248/195, his mother agreeing to abandon her dowry. On his death, the Register of St Brelade comments on the 24 January 1880, mort à Paris, and gives his age as 54 years and his occupation as Rentier— of independent means. He died at Boulevard Haussmann, 118
  8. ↑ Lieutenant, SW Regiment, Militia (1837-). Charles had probably been in his father`s merchant firm

  11. ↑ Lieutenant, later Captain, RN

  14. ↑ Twin. Settled in Gaspé, buried at St Peter`s, Papebiac
  15. ↑ See Marion Turk, The Quiet Adventurers in Canada
  16. ↑ Deputy of St John 1889-1898

  19. ↑ Jean`s occupation is given, on his first marriage, as carpenter. His father is described as Francois Hocquard, sailor, of St Brelade, which is given as Jean`s place of birth. By the time of his second marriage to Jane Hall, née Williams, he had settled in Toxteth, Liverpool, and was a shipwright. His father`s details and his state as a widower, confirm his identity, although his age on this marriage, had been reduced by two years
  20. ↑ Died at sea
  21. ↑ Godparents: Francois Hocquard junior and Elizabeth Gallichan, his wife
