Hi Mark

If you go to www.192.com and type in the search ONG place Norfolk you will get a lot of Ong's living in Norfolk with their addresses and telephone numbers.

Hope this Helps

Hi there. i may have picked this post up quite late but my grandfather was Thomas Ong born at Half Moon Yard Norwich with two brothers Joseph and Edward. Their parents were Edward and Elizabeth Ong with Edward being a weaver. Both parents died when the boys were very young and at 3, 4 and 5 they were in Norwich Poor house.

The rumour of family history was that the Ongs had originally come from now Holland, were hugonauts and the name was originally De Jong but have not been able to confirm this as despite going back to circa early 1700s they name was still Ong. Have further details and happy to share if interested.
