Talk:De Carteret St Ouen, St Brelade and St Saviour branches

"5 Pierre de Carteret (living 1612-38) m Elisabeth le Sebirel". My research strongly suggests that the Pierre de Carteret who married Elisabeth Le Sebirel was Pierre junior, i.e. son of this Pierre, who most likely married Elisabeth Le Mottais and went to live in his wife's parish of St John. A child of the latter couple had Jean De Carteret son of George (St O) as godparent. A contract of 1626 shows Pierre son of Jean acquiring property from Marie Mottais, probably sister of Elizabeth, adjacent to property Pierre senior already held in right of his wife. There's no doubt that he also had a son Pierre and the two are referred to as senior and junior in parish records. The Pierre who married Eliz Le Sebirel is, in any event, referred to in contracts as son of Pierre. JB
