Nicholas Careye was Constable of the St Peter-Port in 1700.

His name with that of James (F32) is to be seen on the Barrieres de la Ville, one of which is next door to the Post office in Smith Street.

On 25 Feb 1706, he is noted as un des pricipaux habitans de la Ville on a committee to supervise some works on the Harbour, and on 6 Sept 1708 agrees to be among a number to subscribe one third of the expenses of a delegate to the Privy Council to protest against the proposal to establish Custom-Houses in the Island as being contrary to the privileges of the Island.
