As I said earlier, you will need to apply to the Jersey authorities www.gov.je

As you don’t know when she died this could be quite costly.

You may find a death notice in the Jersey Evening Press.

A very basic tree on Ancestry says that Elsie was born 1921, and Ida in 1916.
No place of birth given.
Ida is listed as Jasmine (no Ida) and Elsie just as Elsie.

No other info about them, apart from parents' names: Arthur Varasour Barber(1886–1957) and Edith Alice Blake(1884–1969).

Apparently their father also had a son with an unnamed woman;
Stephen Barber 1915. No POB given.

If Ida died before 1940 on Jersey you may find the death on www.theislandwinki.org

If she was on the island during occupation then I believe the id cards may be available.

If she died much more recently you will need to apply to the Jersey States authorities.

From the National Archives website

Births, marriages and deaths in the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man
This is a guide to finding records of births, marriages and deaths in the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. The Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are not part of the United Kingdom and have their own currencies and legal systems, but are dependencies under the Crown. They come under the jurisdiction of the Registrar General of England and Wales for census but not civil registration purposes.

There are NO birth, marriage or death records for the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man available to see online.

In which century, please?

What else is known about the woman?

Birth year, birthplace, married - or not?

Have you done anything yourself in the way of research?

Without any sort of time frame it is.very difficult to point you on the right direction.

The Jersey Heritage website may help you.

Look in search trees which is under the.search heading above the boards to see if anyone has her or any family members in their tree

You can then send a message by clicking on the find out more box

For info the Channel Islands keep their own records and not many are online
