family research: surname RICHES located in NORFOLK
« on: Friday 18 June 10 21:22 BST (UK) »
hiya, i am trying to find out about my family history but don't have much to go on and was wondering whether anyone had come across my grandmother's details in their family tree...
my grandmother's name was Florence Christina Riches, born December 25th 1934 in Norfolk, England. i believe she had a sister named Bertha, a brother named Stanley (a soldier) and also a brother named John Diabul. i would be extremely grateful for any information about my family that anyone may have or any advice as to how to find out more about my family and its past...
many thanks!

There was a birth registration for Florence C. Riches in the first quarter of 1835 in the Depwade registration district.  The mother's name is Gower.

By ordering a certificate through the GRo you should be able to get the full name of both her parents.
