Hello All; Attached is a photo for which I have no name. Based on the clothes I suspect he may be one of the sons of John (b. 1855) and Charlotte Perree, so late 1800's early 1900's? If anyone out there recognizes the photo, I would sure appreciate hearing from you.

Weare pleased to announce Jersey Archive is offering special access to the census folders in our collection. This was the result of members wanting access to those folders so that they can compare different decades, which cannot be done on Ancestry.
At present the collection is covered by banners for the Liberation75 exhibition because of the 72- hour quarantine required by the Government of Jersey. This will continue for the foreseeable future; the Jersey Library has to follow similar restrictions.
The following arrangements for access to the census folders have been made –
1. One CIFHS member only each week on a Monday afternoon; this is when the Archive has its volunteers’ afternoon.
2. The slot is available from 2pm to 4pm and must be pre-booked by phoning Archive Reception 833300.
3. The researcher must arrive by 2pm so that she/he can be admitted to the building with the volunteers.
4. Covid-19 physical distancing information is on the Jersey Heritage website www.jerseyheritage.org
5. This arrangement will start on Monday 5th October 2020 with the 2pm slot and is for CIFHS members only.
