Record Search


Direct links to lists of baptisms, marriages and burials for the Pellier family can be found under Family Records opposite. If you want to search for records for a spelling variant of Pellier, or for any other family name, just click below on the first letter of the
family name you are interested in. This will open a new tab in your browser giving you a list of family names beginning with that letter,
for which there are baptism records in our database of half a million church and public registry records.

You can also select marriages or burials. Select the name you want
and when the list of records is displayed you can easily refine the search, choosing a single parish, given name(s) and/or start and end dates.

The records are displayed 30 to a page, but by selecting the yellow Wiki Table option at the top left of the page you can open a full, scrollable list. This list will either be displayed in a new tab or a pop-up window. You may have to edit the settings of your browser to allow pop-up windows for www.jerripediabmd.net. For the small number of family names for which a search generates more than 1,500 records you will have to refine your search (perhaps using start or end dates) to reduce the number of records found.

New records

From August 2020 we have started adding records from non-Anglican churches, and this process will continue as more records, held by Jersey Archive, are digitised and indexed. Our database now includes buttons enabling a search within registers of Roman Catholic, Methodist and other non-conformist churches. These records will automatically appear within the results of any search made from this page.

Origins of surname

We have not been able to find any specific reference to the origin of this name, but it is doubtless a variant of Pelletier, and derived from the French pelle for skin, indicating a furrier or trader in animal hides. The name is closely associated with the commune of Arquenay, in the Mayenne department of France.

Early records

The first member of the family to arrive in Jersey was Huguenot refugee Gabriel Pellier. He died in Trinity in 1704. His son Daniel married Marguerite Richardson in Trinity on 29 October 1715.

The picture of Amy Eliza Pellier in the box at the top of the page was added here in 2016, and has been in the website since 2012. In 2023 more pictures taken of Amy during her early childhood were posted to a Facebook group and we added them here.

Daughter of ship owner

Amy Eliza Pellier was born in 1869 in St Helier, the daughter of William Pellier and Mary Eliza, nee Hughes. Her father was a ship owner and general merchant and lived with his wife and five children at Roseville House, Roseville Street.

On 24 August 1897 Amy married Edward William Maples at the Town Church, St Helier. The service was conducted by the Rev W Maples, Vicar of St, John's, Mansfield, father of the bridegroom, assisted by the Very Rev George Orange Ballaine, Dean of Jersey.

Amy and Edward had one daughter, Nancy Amy, born in 1899. By 1911 the family had moved to England. They were living at St Bride's, Shortland, Kent, where Edward was listed as a barrister and secretary of education committee. Their home had 12 rooms. They had three servants, a parlourmaid, lady help, and kitchen maid.

In 1939 the family lived at Quarry House, Aylestone Hill, Hereford. Edward was retired.

Amy died in 1945, aged 76, and Edward died six years later. Their daughter Nancy never married nor had children. She died in Salisbury in 1988, aged 89.

Tips

The church record links above will open in a new tab in your browser and generate the most up-to-date list of each set of records from our database. These lists replace earlier Family page baptism lists, which were not regularly updated. They have the added advantage that they produce a chronological listing for the family name in all parishes, so you do not have to search through A-Z indexes, parish by parish.

We have included some important spelling variants on some family pages, but it may be worth searching for records for a different spelling variant. Think of searching for variants with or without a prefix, such as Le or De. To search for further variants, or for any other family name, just click on the appropriate link below for the first letter of the family name, and a new tab will open, giving you the option to choose baptism, marriage or burial records. You will then see a list of available names for that type of record and you can select any name from that list. That will display all records of the chosen type for that family name, and you can narrow the search by adding a given name, selecting a parish or setting start and end dates in the form you will see above. You can also change the family name, or search for a partial name if you are not certain of the spelling

The records are displayed 30 to a page, but by selecting the yellow Wiki Table option at the top left of the page you can open a full, scrollable list. This list will either be displayed in a new tab or a pop-up window. You may have to edit the settings of your browser to allow pop-up windows for www.jerripediabmd.net. For the small number of family names for which a search generates more than 1,500 records you will have to refine your search (perhaps using start or end dates) to reduce the number of records found.

New records

Since August 2020 we have added several thousand new records from the registers of Roman Catholic, Methodist and other non-conformist churches. These will appear in date order within a general search of the records and are also individually searchable within the database search form
