Henry Case (b. 1821 in Dorset, England) married Elizabeth Symes (b. 1822) at the Parish Church of St Helier, St Helier, Jersey on 19 Nov 1843.
Henry and Elizabeth, it appears, had three sons:
- Frederick James Case b. 1847 in the Channel Islands
- John Josh Case b. 1849 in Alderney, Channel Islands
- Henry George Case b. 1851 in Alderney, Channel Islands
In 1851, Henry Case (29) Mason, birthplace England, was living in Braze Road, Guernsey And Adjacent Islands, Channel Islands (presumably Alderney) with Elizabeth Case (27), Frederick Jas Case (4), John Josh Case (2) and Henry Geo Case (0), as well as George Symes (22) Mason, Brother-In-Law and Maria Symes (15) Sister-In-Law (presumably Elizabeth's siblings).
In 1861, Henry Case (39) Journeyman Mason was living in St Jacques Road, Saint Peter Port, Guernsey with wife Mary Ann Case (45) born (in 1816) in the Channel Islands. Presumably Elizabeth had died and Henry had remarried in the previous 10 years, but I haven't been able to find the relevant death and marriage records. Frederick Case (14) from St Helier, Jersey was with Shipping At Sea And In Ports Abroad; John Case (12) and Henry Case (10) born in Alderney, Channel Islands, in 1861, were both in Saint Peter Port, under the care of Alfred A Davies (33) Reformatory Superintendent Prison. (A reformatory or reformatory school is a youth detention centre.)
In 1871, Henry Case (49) Mason from England and Mary A Case (56) were living at St Jacques Syndenham Cottage, St Peter Port, Guernsey. Henry G Case (20) Stone Mason was lodging - three doors down - at Bath Cottage, St Peter Port, Guernsey in the household of Thomas L Tissier (60).
In 1881, Henry Case (59) Mason from Dorset, England was still living in St Jacques, St Peter Port, Guernsey with wife Mary Ann Case (67) from Guernsey, Channel Islands.
In 1891, Henry Case (69) Wall Mason from Dorsetshire, England was once more in St Jacques, St Peter Port, Guernsey with wife Mary Ann Case (79).
In 1901, Henry Case (listed as only 71) Widowed, Retired Mason, was still living in St Peter Port, Guernsey, this time with Ann Thompson (85) Widowed, from England, described as Henry's sister. (I've been unable to find a record of Mary Ann's death. I've found no further records for Henry either.)
