Sources

This chronology draws on various sources in print and on line, the most important of which is A Chronology of Jersey, by Ralph Mollet (1949), based on an 1892 Chronology by E T Nicolle. It is likely that the majority of the other sources are also based to a greater or lesser extent on Mollet's work, published by La Société Jersiaise. Further details have been added from Jersey Through the Centuries - a Chronology of events and matters of interest by Leslie Sinel, which is itself based on Mollet's work.
