Descendants of Antonio Poch


TreeIcon.png


The tree which was submitted to us in 2015, and which was from a similar source, or copied from one at Ancestry, showed the wife of Antonio Poch and the mother of his 12 children at generation 2 as Ana Rivas Figueras. However, there is no doubt that the mother of his children, all born in Jersey, was Nancy Esther de Gruchy. They were married at St Helier's Parish Church on 27 September 1828, and Nancy is shown as the mother of all 11 children between 1829 and 1846 in the parish baptism register. Antonio was 32 at the time of his marriage, so it is possible that he could have been married before in Spain.

Nancy Esther was the daughter of farmer and cider maker Noe de Gruchy, and Elizabeth Esnouf. Noe sold his farm in 1827 and went into business as a wine and cider merchant. The fact that Nancy married a Spaniard and two of her older sisters, Marie and Marguerite, married Frenchmen, is attributed to their father's wine trading.

Antonio's ancestry is also something of a mystery. His mother is given as Rita Poch (1754-1817), but we do not know the name of his father, and whether he was married to Rita, or she just gave his name when Antonio was baptised. Rita was the daughter of Jose Dalmau (1703-1757), of Sitges, near Barcelona, and Teresa Romeu (1712-1757). She was married to Juan Jose Sebastian Romagosa (1747-1794) and they had a son Sebastian Jose in 1785.

In common with the majority of our trees, this descendancy has been subject to regular review by site editors and checked against Jersey church records. Trees including French ancestry have also been checked as far as possible against French primary records. It is not always possible to carry out such checks on sections of trees with United Kingdom and/or colonial content

Record Search

If you want to search for records for any name in this family tree, or for any other family name, just click below on the first letter of the family name you are interested in. This will open a new tab in your browser giving you a list of family names beginning with that letter, for which there are baptism records in our database of half a million church and public registry records.

You can also select marriages or burials. Select the name you want and when the list of records is displayed you can easily refine the search, choosing a single parish, given name(s) and/or start and end dates.

The records are displayed 30 to a page, but by selecting the yellow Wiki Table option at the top left of the page you can open a full, scrollable list. This list will either be displayed in a new tab or a pop-up window. You may have to edit the settings of your browser to allow pop-up windows for www.jerripediabmd.net. For the small number of family names for which a search generates more than 1,500 records you will have to refine your search (perhaps using start or end dates) to reduce the number of records found.
