Descendants of Drouet Nicolle
|
Added 2010 and extensively reviewed by Guy Dixon in 2021. The first three generations of this tree are based upon deeds in the late Miss Julia Marett`s La Haule Archive Collection. The Reverend J.A. Messervy established independently the identity of the father of Francois Nicolle, Rector of St Saviour. The descent then largely follows that published by J.B. Payne, in his Armorial of Jersey (1865), 299 300, to which has been added some of the findings of Mr Pepperell, a Jersey genealogist working in the 1960s, whose papers are now at La Société Jersiaise. However, the descendants of Jean Nicolle senr., fils Thomas, in generation 6, were extracted by Messervy for G.F.B. de Gruchy, in the early 20th century, and have now been added, with supporting evidence from Extentes. Note: Early dates of birth are estimated and have been adjusted to allow for Drouet (generation 1) being of age in 1430 Nicolle family page and links to other trees
Record Search
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.

Notes and references
- ↑ Drouet Nicolle was of age and mentioned in a surviving legal document, dated 1430. He was thus probably born about 1400 and his son about 1430, as now shown: Pepperell papers, at La Société Jersiaise, the source probably being a deed in the La Haule Archive Collection

- ↑ Sold the Fief Burrey in 1499
- ↑ J.B. Payne (ed.) An Armorial of Jersey, (1865), 299
- ↑ Settled in St Helier
- ↑ Extente (1607), 51, 56: "Edmond Nicoll, for John* Nicoll in right of his* mother, the daughter of John Dirvat" [Dirvault] owed the Crown annually 2 cabots. He also owed 5 sous [the 1607 cash value of 6 cabots] in right of the same. This furnishes the reader with the name of Edmond`s father, paternal grandmother and great-grandfather. Moreover, the Extente entries below, demonstrate his descendants
- ↑ Extente (1668), 70: "Thomas Cabot fils Collin [Nicolas] causa mat. fille d`Edmond Nicolle" owed the Crown two annual payments, one of 2 cabots and one of 6 cabots of wheat, that Edmond had owed in 1607. In the Extente (1749), 55, the sum was owed by Nicolas Cabot, fils Thomas, fils Nicolas, fils Thomas
- ↑ From Court records, Jean Nicolle, fils Thomas, settled "d`auprès de la Hougue"--near La Hougue Bie-- in St Saviour, in which parish his children were mostly baptised. Confusingly, yet in accordance with a practice well-established in 16th and 17th century Jersey, there were, in this same generation, two brothers named Jean within the family, known therefore as Jean senr. and Jean junr., fils Thomas. The former settled in St Helier, the latter, as we have seen, in St Saviour. A third brother, featured in J.B. Payne`s Armorial of Jersey (1865), 299, named Thomas Nicolle, remained in St Martin, where he had descendants
- ↑ Note: There were two contemporary Edmond Nicolles, who were 1st cousins. The christenings of the several children of this Edmond, in St Saviour, which has an earlier surviving register than that of his cousin`s parish, St Helier, enables their unambiguous identification
- ↑ Rector of St Saviour, -1530-1540: ABSJ, VII, 127, in which the Revd. J.A. Messervy names his father as Drouet and his principal heir in 1559, as Guillaume Gaudin
