Completed - Burial Index Jersey- Surname Restorick

[almitva]

Can someone please help me I am trying to find the death of James Restorick he is on the 1861 Census with his family in St Helier but not on the 1871.   I know the family were still living there as his son George died on 25th January 1875 in St Helier, his elderly mother Sarah was still alive and would appreciate if her death also could be found.  Various spellings for the name are Restorick/Restarick/Restrick.

Thank you.

Hi

James White Restorick died at 6:30AM on 13th Dec 1862 at 15, George St., St. Helier. He was 24 years old, died from typhus and John Restorick was present at the death.

Source: St. Helier deaths, Dec 1861 to May 1863, volume 15. page 69.

I then looked at the index for burials at Mont a L'Abbe cemetery.

Entry 365 shows "Mr Restorick buried on Thursday, Jan 1875 (no day), in the half burial place, north part of south grave. Minister Rev. Bibby, Funeral Director, Mr Picot". The plot is block F, plot 176, grave N2.

Entry 530 shows "Mrs Restouck on 16th Jan 1877. Funeral Director Mr S". The plot is again, block F, plot 176, grave N2.

Entry 719 shows "16th Dec 1862 - Mr James Restorick to there bury his son - half burial place north". The plot is block F, plot 176, grave N2.

I have copied the plot details and comments as is. Entry 719 is a little difficult to understand but is obviously the burial of James.

Restorick Death Channel Islands
Stewart has done a great job finding the above deaths for me and from the information received Entry 719 states Mr James Restorick to bury his son,  so from this I know James senior was still alive, in 1862 but not on the 1871 census, I also know his death is not recorded in England, can someone check deaths in Guernsey?  His sister Ann lived there and family were known to visit!

Hi Stewart

I cant believe you have done it again, this is the rest of the family, how sad they are gone over a period of 10/11  years,  with the exception of my great grandfather William.  I would love to know whats on the certificates, and  I am intrigued as to who Martha is as I have no information on her!  I'm now wondering is she  James or John's wife, George's daughter!  I always thought the only marriage on Jersey was George White Restorick's.

I am so grateful to you for all your help and look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Alice

Here are the details! The Registrar's handwriting is terrible. I can see most things because I recognise the words, but some of the causes of death may be spelt incorrectly.

11th Aug 1870 at 38, Pier Road, St. Helier, John Restorick aged 29 years 5 months. He was a Boulanger and died from Diarrhee. George Sinnatt was present at the death.

12th Jun 1871 at 8, Kensington Place, St. Helier, Martha Restorick, widow of John Pierce and wife of John Halett. She was 62 years and died from Maladiw ou Caur(?). Ann Burnett was present at the death.

26th Jan 1875 at Kensington St., George White Restorick aged 39 years. He died from Epicier Annerrisme de l'aorte(?). Meche de Keriah of 18 George St., was present at the death.

13th Jan 1877 at 2, Kensington St., Sarah White wife of James Restorick aged 87 years. She deid froom cancer a l'asophage and Kezia(?) Holmes of 18, George St., was present at the death.

Hope all that helps.

Hi Stewart

I cant thank you enough for all the information you have discovered for me. The mystery of Martha is solved from all of this, she was James senior's sister,  although the parish records in Hawkchurch, Devon state Robert Pearce(Pierce).  I know where Sand Street is and Kensiington Place is the General Hospital area and the family had lived at Pier Road but cant find George Street on the map.  Any ideas does it still exist?

Thank you again for your help.

It certainly doesn't exist today but I'll look on an old map and report back.
