List of Bailiffs of Jersey


This is a list of bailiffs of Jersey.
The position of Bailiff was created shortly after the Treaty of Paris 1259 in which the King of England, Henry III, gave up claim to all of the Duchy of Normandy but the Channel Islands. In 1290, separate bailiffs for Guernsey and Jersey were appointed.
The list of bailiffs is only reliably traceable from Philippe L’Evesque's appointment in 1277, although earlier bailiffs are mentioned and the office may date from before 1204.
