Just a reminder that the heart of genealogy archives is the Priaulx Library, in St. Peter Port, Guernsey. This is where a large de Mouilpied file is located, in addition to many other old Guernsey Family names. Blondel has a very large file there as well. The Priaulx Library is where almost all the historical records are held in Guernsey and the staff there are professional and prompt.
At The Royal Court House, visitors have access to the Greffe, which houses all charters granted to Guernsey since 1394, in addition to ancient archives.
The following web-sites are suggested as good starting points for research
on Guernsey born ancestors.
