1939 register
Good Morning
Can anybody tell me if the 1939 Register included Jersey please ? I have recently watched The Guernsey Potato Peel Pie Literary Society - a wonderful story of Guernsey during WW2. In 1972 I went to live in Jersey and stayed in 7 Lempriere Street,St Helier ( it's still there ) Our Landlady was Mrs Fahy - she was a local girl in WW2 but she told us her husband was Irish - he was taken by the Germans to build fortitied exrensions to Jersey Castle and Mont Orguiel Castle not long after they married - She never ever seen him again . This lady - a wonderful gentle woman - never had any children and never married again - so after watching the film about Guernsey it brought back memories of Mrs Fahy ...a very very sad story and a very unhappy life that she had - so now I am curious - what was her birth name - what was her husbands name - when did they marry ? I am hoping the 1939 register may be a start for me to do a little research on this lovely lady who was very good to my wife and I . thanks for reading

I've had a look Allan but it seems the register doesn't cover the Channel Islands.

Does anyone know if there is any work being done to make the Scottish 1939 records be brought online? I wondered if anyone knew any news re ScotandsPeople, for example?

However, the German occupation registration cards for the Jersey residents in 1940 are online and searchable, but I can't find any matches for the name Fahy or Fahey:

Merry, shouldn't you remove the names of the two with post-1918 dates of birth?
