Hi
I have followed the Barkham part of my tree back to Jersey, which has now hit a deadend. However, whilst in Jersey John Barkham married a Jane Prendpain (her surname has also been spelt as Prempain and Prempair).
I am now looking for any information on Jane Prendpain i.e. birth, parents.
For information, below is everything I have found out/been told about the Barkham/Prendpain family:
1851 census
Mary Jane Barkham, widow, 49 born in St Helier
Jane Barkham, 22, born in Grouville
Elizabeth Barkham, 20, born in Grouville
Philip Barkham, 20, born in Grouville
Charlotte Barkham, 13, born in Grouville
1841 census (can't find John or Jane):
John Noel, 25
Isabella Prenpair, 24
Mary Ward, 75
John Noel, 3
Isabella Noel, 1
Philip Barcome, 8
Charlotte Barcome, 2
Jane Barcome, 14
John Barkham from Portsmouth married Jane Prempain from St Helier on 3.6.1823
Other children baptised were:
Jean David Barkham, 3.4.1825 (to Jean Barkham & Jeanne Prendpain)
Joseph George Barkham, 21.5.1826 (to Jean Barkham & Jeanne Prendpain)
Jean Barkham 23.8.1829 (to Jean Barkham & Jeanne Prendpain)
Peter Phillipe Barkham, 8.5.1831 (to Jean Barkham & Jeanne Prendpain)
Isabelle Barkham, 6.12.1835 (to John Barkham & Jane Prendpain)
Mary Ann Barkham, 17.12.1837 (to John Barkham & jane Prendpain)
I am assuming that the Mary Jane in the 1851 census is the same person in the marriage and baptism records.
Stewart, who kindly found out the baptism details, also mentioned that there was a Pierre Prempain mentioned in the Index to Poursuites Criminelles Register.
Thank you for any assistance.
