My Grandmother was born around 1870 in St.Helier.  She
married my grandfather -  Frederick Joseph Cooper there -  around 1890 - he was in the Prince of Wales Volunteers stationed at the Fort Regent. -  they were in Liverpool before the first World War - he went to fight in France in 1914 I believe - any information would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Boy Wendy you're good!! now we have a different spelling. I heard the reason for all the different  spellings was  - that my Grandmother probably couldn't read or write -  so whoever was taking information wrote it the way they heard it! I just wish we could find something about her marriage I know Grandad was there at that time..! but I want to thank you for this -  this is great!

[liverpool annie]

Wendy -  can I just ask you - you said she was on the 1881 census but then you gave the readout of 1871!  so is there an 1881 too? -  also in  1891 - I wonder if the family was just that - family!

Liverpool annie

Sorry, my mistake, the one I said was 1871 wasn't, that was the 1881.

Was hoping to find her mum Mary on the '71 either married or still single, but as of now I have not, yet.

Hi

It would seem the must have married like you said in Jersey.  Have found this info maybe you could try it out


 Where do I get birth, marriage and death certificates from?
For certificates after 1842 contact:

Jersey :
R.J. Kerley, The Superintendent Registrar, 10 Royal Square, St. Helier, Jersey JE2 4WA.
Telephone (01534) 502335. Office Hours 9.30 a.m.to 12.30 p.m.

If you know the Date/Name/Parish of the event he will charge £ 10 per certificate. If searching is required, a further charge of £ 7 is levied for a five year search for a birth or death and £ 14 for a five year search for a marriage. Add a postal handling charge of £1.00 for overseas and 50 pence for British Isles. Please make cheques payable to "Treasurer of States". There are no facilities for personal research.

If you are in Jersey, these charges can often be alleviated as the Registrar's Indices from 1842-1900 are available at both the Société Jersiaise and the CIFHS Research Room.

Due to a recent relaxation of the rules there is now some limited access to the registers by appointment between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. Monday to Friday. Ensure you telephone first as Jersey is once again in demand as a Wedding Destination!
