Contributions de la famille Le Sauteur à la petite histoire de Jersey
Extracts from Hommage à la famille Le Sauteur
(William Thomas LeSauteur, 1982) and other sources



Élizabet Le Sauteur (1660)


"Fut tuée au cimitere d'un coup de canon", at 15 yrs of age, at Trinity.
Could this accident be connected with the aftermath of celebrations and the settlement of rival differences which took place after the Restoration of Charles II? The loyalty shown by the upper classes in Jersey, to the English Crown, did not necessarily extend to the lower orders who appear to have supported Cromwell's regime. Extracts from G.R. Balleine, A History of the Island of Jersey, Page 219: on May 8th 1660 the King (Charles II) was proclaimed in London. When the news reached the Island on June 2nd that Charles had entered London in triumph, Edouard Hamptonne, the deprived Royalist Vicomte, mounted a stool in the Market Place (Royal Square), and for the second time proclaimed him as King. And, says the diarist, "the cannons fired, muskets went off everywhere; at night bonfires blazed in all the parishes! "
