Cheney family of Jersey
« on: Thursday 11 February 10 09:36 GMT (UK) »
Hi there everyone,

I'm currently working on my family history and found that my grandmothers side of the family may of originated from Jersey. I'm looking for any information on my family name. I know that a few members of my family originate there. If anyone has any information it would be a great help

Hi Andy

Have you got names and dates of who you are looking for?
Have you found your family on the census?
