Jaunay - the name, facts and figures 1800-1990
For the period under examination I have located three distinct Jaunay families lwith enough detail to extract some statistics. Family 1, my own family, is represented by fifty-four people living during the period under research. It includes one family who styled themselves de Jaunay after World War II. Family 2 as represented by seven individuals, used the forms Jeaunay, Jeaunais and Jaunay and has now died out. Family 3 is represented by three people and is the result of a man taking on the Jaunay name by deed-poll after his mother married into the family. There are ten other Jaunays who have yet to be linked to any family. No Jaunets fall within the period of the study. A total of seventy-four people! [Since writing this paragraph in 1993 the numbers have grown and 33 families and many more people are now identifiable.]
A decade by decade examination on numbers of living people born with the name reveals the following...
