Le Boutillier
Three generations of an unknown Le Boutillier family
Direct links to lists of baptisms, marriages and burials for the Le Boutillier family can be found under Family Records opposite. If you want to search for records for a spelling variant of Le Boutillier, 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 yellow 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.
New records
From August 2020 we have started adding records from non-Anglican churches, and this process will continue as more records, held by Jersey Archive, are digitised and indexed. Our database now includes buttons enabling a search within registers of Roman Catholic, Methodist and other non-conformist churches. These records will automatically appear within the results of any search made from this page.

Origin of Surname
The family name refers to an occupation - that of maker of leather bottles, and is an old French name. It is also said to derive from early French for 'butler'. The surname is comparatively widespread as provincial rulers and noblemen had butlers.
Early records
Le Boutillier appears in the Short Inquisition of 1274. In 1345, Collas Botiler was an archer at the Castle.
Philippe Le Boutillier was Constable of Trinity, being one of several to hold that office in the parish, 1556-1572.
Johan, Nicholas and Phillipot are listed in the Jersey Chantry Certificate of 1550. The surname also flourished in St Brelade where, in the early 20th century, a Le Boutillier was Constable and then Jurat. Francis Le Boutillier was Constable of St Ouen, before also becoming a Jurat.
Payne's Armorial of Jersey
From a very early Norman period this family has existed in Jersey, and its name frequently occurs in the history of its native island. In its ancestral parish of Trinity, its members have filled municipal offices for centuries. A curious and pleasing instance of liberality exists in the record of a gift by one of this family, some centuries ago, of the annual sum of twelve gros (groats) to furnish with ink and paper the parochial school of Trinity, for the use of poor scholars.
The same family also made an annual donation to the same parish of a bushel of wheat to be made into bread for the Holy Communion. Its estate is taxed with the gifts to this day.

Among the very first businesss advertisements published in Jersey, in the third edition of Mathieu Alexandre's second Jersey newspaper Gazette de l'Ile de Jersey on 19 August 1786, Jean Le Boutillier announced that he had been approached by parents to open a boarding school and as soon as he secured ten applications he would acquire a suitable property and open the school. He also advised the recommencement of his evening school from 3 October 1786. Although Alexandre had launched his first publication, Magazin de l'Ile de Jersey in 1784, followed by the Gazette in 1786, this was only the second issue to carry advertising -

Tips
The church record links above will open in a new tab in your browser and generate the most up-to-date list of each set of records from our database. These lists replace earlier Family page baptism lists, which were not regularly updated. They have the added advantage that they produce a chronological listing for the family name in all parishes, so you do not have to search through A-Z indexes, parish by parish.
We have included some important spelling variants on some family pages, but it may be worth searching for records for a different spelling variant. Think of searching for variants with or without a prefix, such as Le or De. To search for further variants, or for any other family name, just click on the appropriate link below for the first letter of the family name, and a new tab will open, giving you the option to choose baptism, marriage or burial records. You will then see a list of available names for that type of record and you can select any name from that list. That will display all records of the chosen type for that family name, and you can narrow the search by adding a given name, selecting a parish or setting start and end dates in the form you will see above. You can also change the family name, or search for a partial name if you are not certain of the spelling
The records are displayed 30 to a page, but by selecting the yellow 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.
New records
Since August 2020 we have added several thousand new records from the registers of Roman Catholic, Methodist and other non-conformist churches. These will appear in date order within a general search of the records and are also individually searchable within the database search form
