CBC Biography
Jerry is a young French-Canadian boy who works as a farmhand at the Cuthberts' farm. Because of his stoic, implacable, practical nature, he and Anne bicker constantly. He is played by Aymeric Jett Montaz. [1]

Appearance and Personality
Jerry has dark hair and dark brown eyes. In the first season, he is shorter than Anne but grows rapidly throughout seasons two and three, towering over Anne greatly. His practicality and sarcasm clashes with Anne's bold and imaginative personality which is the main reason why they start off on bad terms. He is also hardworking, playful, and unassuming about anything from anyone. When Anne and Jerry go to Josephine Barry's manse for the night, he thinks he needs to sleep at the stables along with the horses. He isn't afraid to speak his mind and openly flirts with Diana, peppering her with genuine compliments, which contrasts most boys in Anne's school who proclaims their admiration through the Notice Board. Jerry comes from a large, poor family and speaks with a French-Canadian or Québécois French accent.

He has a habit of singing French songs, first seen in Wherever You Are Is My Home while riding on a buggy to Charlottetown to sell the Cuthberts' things and a cattle. This annoys Anne as she says that "this is an important journey" but Jerry does not care and continues to sing in glee. This also happens in I Protest Against Any Absolute Conclusion as they journey to Carmody to buy ingredients and run errands. This habit of his is adopted from his family who enjoys singing and dancing a lot after eating dinner. This is depicted in A Hope of Meeting You in Another World when Diana stays for supper.

History
During a talk with Anne Shirley, he reveals his house is so small that he and all his siblings have to lay on the bed facing opposite ways, to create enough room for all of them. He starts to work at Green Gables to earn money for his family. In The True Seeing is Within, Jerry reveals to Nate, one of the two boarder
