Dolbel 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. ↑ Founder of St Mannelier Grammar School
  2. ↑ Mentioned in a partage in 1498. He was probably the Thomas Dolbel, who was a St Saviour Sermenté, juror, assisting Crown Commissioners in 1515: Rapport des Commissaires (1515)
  3. ↑ Thomas` wife was provisionally thought to be Catherine Hubert, daughter of Simon, of St Saviour. However, a deed dated 10 January 1608 [RP 3/60] gives all her family; her eldest son, Thomas Dolbel and his eldest son, Jean Dolbel; her three daughters were Denyze Dolbel ( -1595), wife of André Pallot, Catherine Dolbel, widow of Hugh Yden, and Jacquette Dolbel, wife of Regnauld Horman. Of the daughters, Catherine was baptized in St Savior in 1548 and at least one of the children was baptized before the earliest Dolbel register entry in that parish, in 1542. The St Saviour register also shows that, between 1543 and 1552, two Thomas Dolbels were presenting children in baptism. The wife of this other Thomas was named Elizabeth, as now shown on the tree. Those mentioned in the 1608 contract do not match the known St Etienne family, and are now to be found in Descendants of Thomas Dolbel and Catherine Hubert
  4. ↑ Chef-Sergent of St Saviour, 1567: ABSJ V. To distinguish him from Guillaume Dolbel (see below), he was buried at St Saviour on the 16 September 1579 as "Guillaume Dolbel son of Thomas"
  5. ↑ There were two marriages in St Saviour, with Guillaume Dolbel as the bridegroom. The first was in 1570, to Thomasse Baudains: [[ABSJ V. The second was to Anne Martin, in 1573. Jean Dolbel, son of Guillaume, who is known to have continued the St Etienne line, was baptised in 1576, with Edouard Baudains as godfather
  6. ↑ ABSJ, V. Thomasse was sister of Laurens Baudains, founder of Le Don Baudains. Thomasse married second (in 1587) Damyan Poingdestre
  7. ↑ Godfather: Julian Dolbel
  8. ↑ Jean Dolbel, despite his comparative youth, followed his late father as Chef-Sergent of St Saviour. On 28 April 1597, he answered for not having attended the sitting of the court: Cour d`Héritage 6/260r (1597), St Saviour. Also, Jean Dolbel, son of Guillaume of St Etienne, was involved in an action in 1631, sued by François de Carteret and Benjamin La Cloche regarding an acquisition he had made: L/C/65/B8/7, at Jersey Archive
  9. ↑ Jean Dolbel, son of Jean, of St Etienne, St Saviour, owed the Crown, to be collected in St Martin, for the Priory of St Clement, 1 Quartier of annual wheat rente and 4 cabots for the forfeiture of Nicolas Valpy: Extente (1668). The same sum was owed in the Extente of 1749, by his then representative, Rachel Dolbel "for John Dolbel, in right of his wife, daughter of Richard, heir of John Dolbel (of St Estienne) en deux instances
  10. ↑ Jean Dolbel of St Etienne was engaged in litigation in 1691 against Helier Hue, regarding who had the legal representation of Sire John Hue, Rector of St Saviour and Founder of St Mannelier. ABSJ V mentions the action. An unsigned manuscript genealogy in the Lord Coutanche Library, Société Jersiaise, links the 1691 plaintiff, Jean Dolbel, to the Hue family of the late 15th century, but is erroneous on one point. Deriving most of its information from the court proceedings, it records that the plaintiff, Jean Dolbel of St Etienne, was son of Jean, son of Jean, son of Guillaume. The writer assumed that this last Guillaume was the Guillaume who was of age, and thus able to be a party to the partage of 1498 (above). There are clearly two generations missing between the plaintiff`s great-grandfather Guillaume Dolbel and Thomas Dolbel, son of Symon, who was, by way of contradiction, described on the same manuscript tree as "ancestor of the Dolbels of St Etienne". The only way the 1691 Jean "of St Etienne" could be descended from that family and hence be able to represent them in these proceedings, would be if he were a descendant of Thomas, son of Symon, the forbear of the subsequent family. Regarding the missing generations, generation 3 is revealed by the parentage of the rector, Julien Dolbel, who was described by Messervy (below) as being "son of Thomas of St Etienne"
  11. ↑ Godparents: John Dolbel (priest), Philippe Dolbel (priest) and others. John may have been the son of Thomas Dolbel, of St Etienne, buried at St Saviour on 17 November 1554
  12. ↑ C Hér 6/188 (30 April 1595), St Saviour: Jehan Dolbel, eldest son of Guillaume Dolbel, eldest son of Thomas Dolbel, being sued by Thomas Dolbel younger son of Thomas, regarding the inheritance of Thomas Dolbel snr
  13. ↑ Child of Thomas Dolbel, of St Etienne, buried two days before the mother
  14. ↑ Messervy states, in his list of Rectors of St Saviour, that Julien was son of Thomas, of St Etienne: ABSJ VII
  15. ↑ BA Oxon. Dolbell, John, of 'Gersey', clergyman`s son, Christ Church, matric. 23 November 1581. Julian Dolbel was the only Jersey clergyman of this surname at the time. Where he was a curate, or held a living, prior to St Saviour in 1567 and therefore, where John was baptised, is not known
  16. ↑ Daniel Dolbel, younger son of Julian Dolbel, Rector of St Saviour, was one of those "three children who are the most advanced and capable of study, proposed to be supported, to be rendered capable of the ministry" selected on 17 December 1593: Actes des Etats 3, (Société Jersiaise, 1897), 1524-1596. On 8 September 1596, the States agreed to refund the money advanced by the parishes of St Helier and St Saviour for the support of Daniel Dolbel. The primary sources cited were the Cour du Samedi, Volumes 19 and 20
  17. ↑ Mentioned in the partage of 1498. Guillaume Dolbel of St Saviour featured, as discussed above, in the unsigned manuscript Dolbel genealogy at the Lord Coutanche Library, Société Jersiaise. He is shown as a younger brother of Thomas, son of Symon. Guillaume was mentioned in the Extente of 1528
  18. ↑ Marie Falle, her mother Helière Dolbel, her grandfather, Thomas Dolbel and her great-grandfather, Guillaume Dolbel (above), are extracted from the research of the Reverend J A Messervy: ABSJ V
