Notes and references

  1. Said by HER, copied from the Datestone Register, to be for Francis and Mary J Le Brocq. The attribution is based on the 1871 census return, but these records do not give maiden names for wives, and MJBC clearly does not match Le Brocq. We believe that the couple were Francis Le Brocq (1840- ) and Mary Bichard (1832- ) who married at St Saviour in November 1869. The ages match those given in the census return. The only problem is that the datestone and the census record indicate that Mary's second forename started with J, whereas the marriage record shows her as Mary Ann. We think that there must be an error in the marriage register. There is no record for another couple who would match
