Channel Islands Lookup Requests / Re: Jersey lookup request Helleur/Amy family

Hi there. I might be able to help you with this one.

I two am a direct descendent of Francis & Esther Helleur (nee Amy) through their son Francis Helleur born 1837. Esther had a brother Philip Amy. Their parents were Phillip Amy and Esther Carrel, the Carrel's were fron Normandy France. Philip and Esther had three children Anne Jeanne (some times listed as Jane) b 1831, Emelle Eleonore b 1834 and my Francis born 1837, Francis was a master mariner and died at sea, he married Mary Jane Connelly and they had three children and so the line goes on. I have both the Amy and Helleur trees if you are interested. This is the first time I have seen someone also related to this line of Helleur!

Hi

 hoping someone can help with a few requests please for a friend who cannot travel herself? First is birth lookup for:

Anne Jeanne Helleur b. abt 1829, possibly St. Helier, dtr of Francois Helleur and Esther Amy

second is

Esther Amy b. abt 1806- we have no parent details, same lady mentioned above.

third is confirmation of a marriage date of

Elie Romeril and Marthe Helleur, which I have as 27 Jan 1744 St. Brelade, however I've seen a conflicting report taken apparently from a Société Jerriaise record suggesting a date in 1745, possibly in St. Helier, is correct?

 Any help gratefully received!

Hi thanks so much for your reply.

Sorry I have given you dates that don’t make sense.

The John & Stephen you mentioned below are the sons of my Stephen

Stephen BENALLACK was baptised 9 July 1683 Ladock. Father Stephen.
John BENALLACK bap 13 Nov 1886 Ladock father Stephen

As I understand Stephen their father was born around 1658 or the 1660’s, which would make him around the 25 year old mark when the oldest was born. John below I thought was born around 1660 this to could tie in if they were brothers. I can’t find any Parish records or evidence to support this however. There seems to be a lot of information on John Benallack but nothing on Stephen. Would it be possible for you to check and see if there are any Parish records for Ladock in or about the 1660’s that might list the birth of Stephen and maybe John also?

Seems really unusual that there isn’t a marrage recorded for Stephen and his wife Elizabeth maybe they were married at another parish close by?

I have Stephen’s (Wife Elizabeth) children listed as:

Stephen b 1683
John b 1686
Catherine b  1694
Mary b 1698
Alice b 1691
Alice b 1699 ( My ancestor married John Bassett 1725)
Jacob b  1700?
Elizabeth b 1689

Johns (Wife Margery) children as: (These seem to match what you have told me)

Dorcas b 1688
Henry b 1690
Stephen b 1692
John b 1694
Peter b 1700
Nicholas b 1702
Richard b 1704
Katherine b 1698

Look forward to your reply

Hi Lisa,

A Big Welcome To RootsChat and the Cornwall Board.  ;D

Everything you are saying seems a little mixed up I am afraid.

I see

Stephen BENALLACK was baptised 9 July 1683 Ladock. Father Stephen.
John BENALLACK bap 13 Nov 1886 Ladock father Stephen

Now getting back to the marriage you mention

Stephen BENALLACK = Katherin SCRAWEN was on the 15 Jan 1645 in Probus  :o so not the parents of these two. (But there are possible earlier John and Stephen to have been sons of these two.)

There are quite a few Benallack marriages in Ladock but the next Stephen is a Stephen BENALLACK = Margery EDDY 24 Feb 1733 Ladock

This marriage for John suggests John Ustick was from St Just - not John.

John son of Stephen BENALLACK = Margery dau of John USTICK of St Just in Penwith 30 Apr 1687 Ladock

also listed as

John BENALLACK gentleman of Ladock = Margery dau of John USTICK Gentleman 30 Apr 1687 St Just in Penwith

so I am not really sure where the marriage took place but it certainly appears John was of Ladock John Ustick of St Just. No other marriages of interest in St Just.

Cheers Kris  :)

Cornwall / BENALLACK Family - St Just and Ladock Cornwall
« on: Monday 04 January 10 01:37 GMT (UK)  »
I have hit a brick wall with regards to the Benallack family of cornwall. I am a direct decendent of Stephen Benallack born Ladock abt 1675 and Elizabeth? I am 99% sure that Stephen was the second son of Stephen Benallack and Kathrin Scawen married 1658 at St Just Penwith, both were born St Just Penwith. I know they also had a son John Benallack who married Margery Edie at St Just Penwith but there doesn't seem to be any information on Stephen. Can any one point me in the direction of a birth certificate or other information that might help me put together the pieces. I have tried the opc for Cornwall but they have no information. Any help would be appreciated.
