Hi Shirley,
thanks for your reply. I'm not sure whether you can help me, I'm  looking for a Jean/John Bree born about early 1880s. Unable to help you with a middle name or place of birth. I believe it to be Jersey, Channel Island but am unsure. All I know is that he eventually marries an Amelia Carboulec (born c1882) who was apparently born in France.
Thanks
Alleycat
