    Please email me at demalpas at btinternet dot com with your request. I don't know a great deal about Monte Bello. My father's grandfather Col William Finlay owned it in the early 1900s and then I think his sister Dorothy (Dot) Finlay owned it later. I remember my father, who died in 1993, telling stories of visiting his grandparents there when he was a boy. He was born in 1912 and his father was killed in 1917. After his father's deat, his mother lived with her parents-in-law for a while at Monte Bello. His mother's father was Richard de Malpas Cotgrave. My father's name of George William Finlay was changed by deed poll in 1918 to George William (surname de Malpas-Finlay) by his grandfather when all male lines of the family traceable to circa 1200 were killed in WW1. The Cotgrave family originated in Malpas in Cheshire.

    Long shot I know but I've just found a missing cousin - Grace POLLINGTON(born 1887) - in the German Occupation Registration Cards for the 13th January 1941 with an address of 'Monte Bello' St Peters. I can find no trace of her on the UK mainland after 1911 and just wondered if she was possibly a servant with the family who remained in Jersey during and after the occupation? If you have ever come across the name I would be interested thanks.
