&nbsp;N.B. Until 1949 you may find a married woman's death recorded under her maiden name.
 
During World War Two many people left the Channel Islands for England, or were interned in Germany. Should you be unable to find a Birth, Death or Marriage during German occupation, copies of forms submitted for the issue of ID cards ( along with photographs ) are held in the Jersey and Guernsey archives respectively, and are a very good alternative as every Channel Islander had to carry one. Lists are also available of all those who were deported. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
