Elias EASTERBROOK and Ann of St Helier

Elias (an Omnibus Proprietor and Carter) and Ann were in Jersey in 1841, 1861 and 1871. They retired to Ashburton in Devon and were there in 1881 and 1891. Son John only appears in the 1861 census.

John EASTERBROOK and Judith MOUNEAU of The Vale, Guernsey

This family only appear in the 1841 census. John was a Quarryman and born in England, the rest of the family were born in Guernsey.

William EASTERBROOK and Catherine of St Helier

William, a baker, and Catherine, both from England, appear in the 1871 census. There is no other trace.

George EASTERBROOK born in St Helier

George's marriage certificate gives his place of birth as St Helier, Jersey and his parents' names. There is no trace so far of either George or his parents in Jersey. He emigrated to New Zealand where he married.

This family is being researched by Peter.

Elizabeth EASTERBROOK and William NEWCOMBE of St Helier

Elizabeth is the daughter of James and Jane of Plymouth.

Others

Nancy EASTERBROOK and son William appear in 1851 in St Helier. There are also 3 other younger sons/daughters with the surname Sanvin or Janvin: Sarah 6, John 4, Samuel 1.

Several female EASTERBROOKs from England appear as servants, but there is little to link them to any families.

From St Peter Port Town Hospital Journals: Other emigrants included Julia Easterbrook, Susanne Kendricks and her baby daughter. They, along with 16 others all went on the same ship (the Onyx, under Captain Jones) to the same destination, Adelaide, South Australia on 26 June 1848 "of their own free will, having been equipped with money and everything necessary for such a long journey." ("Guernsey Emigrants to Australia 1828-1899" by David W. Kreckler). Julia was a charge of the Constable. On 7th November 1847, aged 15, she was "received by the Treasurer and admitted provisionally - daughter of Jean Easterbrook who has returned to England"; so she began her time in the Poorhouse as a charge on the Parish. I discovered one other entry for her, on the 11th January 1848 "Julia Easterbrook aged 16, daugher of an Englishman, returned from service due to bad behaviour".
