Datestones
- 17 PAB ♥ ILNV 70 - For Philippe Aubin, of St Saviour, and Judith Le Neveu, of St Helier, who married in St Martin on 8 August 1762, and had the property built in 1769. There were a number of Philippe Aubins born in St Saviour at a time which would fit with this marriage, and we have been unable to place this couple in any of our Aubin family trees. Judith's ancestry is shown in Descendants of Jean Le Neveu (1535)
