Origin of Surname

The origin of this old Jersey surname is not known. Several spellings can be found in old Jersey records, although some are undoubtedly errors. Although the various branches are believed to have had a common origin, spellings varied from parish to parish at one time.

The majority of records use one of three spellings: Le Sebirel, Lesbirel and the seemingly unpronounceable Le Sbirel. Although we have retained separate spellings in some of the submitted family trees (below) we have grouped all baptism records together under one heading embracing the three main spellings in our database.

Family recordss

Family trees

The first two trees overlap - see Generation 3 Jeannette/Genette Le Sbirel m Thomas Malzard - but this may be a coincidence and both trees, which are from separate sources, are presented here with the caution that the early generations are subject to considerable doubt. The third tree, which also overlaps with the other two, is from more recent research and believed to be the most reliable. The following two trees give further information about the same family. They have been provided by Lesbirel researcher Maryan Egan-Baker
