Andrew from Canada is a descendant from Joseph deMouilpied and looking for more family information. Andrew comes by way of Emily de Mouilpied b.1849, Joseph's oldest child. Emily married John Le Gresley, 1867, another close Guernsey family. They had a daughter Edith Emily Le Gresley b. Oct. 4, 1872.
Edith went on to marry John James Le Gros, apparently an old Jersey name. The Le Gros name still remains in St. Peter Point, Gaspe, Canada, as the Le Gros House seen on the left side of this blog. They had 6 children: John Arthur b. 1897; Gladys Muriel b. 1903; Doris Emily b. 1905; Sydney James b. 1907; Winnifred b. 1909 and Harold b.1912. This Le Gros name is what Andrew needs help with. (Andrew comes by way of Sydney)
John James Le Gros had a father who was also a John James Le Gros who was born abt. 1840 in St. Mary, Jersey (the other Channel Island) His father was Thomas LeGros, b. 1811 also in St. Mary's, Jersey. And this is where Andrew needs help, he just can't seem to go back before Thomas.
Does anyone have information about the Le Gros family from Jersey?
Does any one know any one in Jersey who can help?
I know Guernsey has a fantastic library with Family Names on file filled with genealogy information. Does anyone know if Jersey's Library does the same?
If you are a descendant from Edith Emily Le Gros, Andrew has a great lineage and chart created. He also has documents about marriages, burials etc. And Andrew is enthusiastic. His email is:

Hi My maiden name is Le Gros and I was Born in Jersey Channel Islands in 1950. My Grandfather was Clement Emile Le Gros born 1902 of Jules Emile Le Gros who was born in Normandy France during the 1800. I do not know if great grandfather had any siblings but I do know that all of grandfathers siblings including himself have now left this life. I hope this will help a little. Cheers Rosie now residing in Australia

Thanks Rosie. All information is helpful. I will let Andrew, the Le Gros enthusiast know about this. Thanks so much for commenting.
Cheers,
Debby
Rosie, I am also in Australia, in Sydney and would like to find out if you are related to Rosanne Le Gross born about 1929, or if you have any contacts that might be able to help me find out what happened to her. I know she became Palmer by marriage and had a daughter called Cathereinne Gervaise whom I believe became Richards by marriage.
