December: Datestones Updates - New Stones at 1203-1250 and Ecclesiastical Stones, 1227-1231 are to be found among the images preserved by the Société Jersiaise Photographic Archives. I am presently negotiating with them for permission to use the pictures as these datestones have either been lost or have come from properties that have been demolished and are shown in their original location. Many of the stones are already listed and so, for the time being, I have updated them with the Photographic Archives' reference number see: 36 103 194 409 471 595 615 616 686 691 707 740 780 837 1027

In the process of this work it has become apparent that there is a gap in the St Mary Marriage Registers between 1705 and 1730, baptism records have been used instead to identify the couples
