I researched on Jersey in 2013. Except for German occupation during the war, Jersey has had a very stable history and a small population, and all FH information is located in one facility in St Helier, so family history research there was ridiculously easy.
In one morning I was able to uncover back to my research subject's 7th great grandfather in the early 1600s! And I spent the rest of the day on the beach! Cheers, BT
