Hello Donna,

The only place you will find Jersey marriages is in either the Jersey Archive or the Registry Office. However St Helier baptisms between 1842 and about 1910 are on line and it is sometimes possible to find what you need from these, especially the mother's maiden name which is almost always included.
If you don't have any joy from these let me know, I'll be at the Archive later this week.

Researching:
Basébé, Butcher, Johnson, Dubber (London) Milford (Devon and Cornwall) Shardlow, Hague, Holmes, Capenhurst (Derbyshire) Smith, Jennnings, Keylock, Bullock (Gloucestershire)

I have Ancestry and cannot find Jersey marriages.
I guess Genes records are the same as Findmypast.
Edit
Cannot find Jersey in the list of FMP search counties.

Don' know about genes but ancestry say they have it.... They are doing a 14 day trial.for free...card details needed (BUT REMEMBER TO CANCEL before otherwise they automatically take the money from your acc.)
Or you could give us details & we could look.
