Can't see anything on Jerripedia.net?
Maybe a Forces birth?

They married at St Nicholas, Plumstead according to online transcripts - she was a spinster and they were both of the parish.

What document states she was born in Jersey  :-\

There is a marriage on Jersey 16 Mar 1768 for
Jean (John) BRUCE “Cannonier” (gunner) to Jeanne (Jane) FRANCILLON

I can see baptisms for these children -
* John 1769 - St Helier Jersey
* Elizabeth 1771 - St Helier Jersey
* Charles 1773 - St Helier Jersey
* William 1779 - St Helier Jersey
I can’t see a record for the daughter Jane, but there is a gap between Charles and William.

-----

There is a baptism in Holborn, St Andrew – looks like the mother
Jane Francillon 11 Jan 1748
Daughter of Alexander and Jane Francillon


Can’t post any snips here as it is a look-up only.

Good find, DaisyPetal. :)
I looked at different spellings but I didn’t see that one.
Have pulled up copy of original record (Ancestry) now. Looks good.
