Family Search - Norfolk Parish Registers

[Luzzu]

Hi,

Sorry to be a pain  but I am looking for the link to the Norfolk PR's on Family Search where you can browse the original images by parish.  I've used them before but not for a while and now I can't find them.  I've followed the link on this thread:-

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,439039.0.html

but it is for searching, rather than browsing images of the originals.

Thanks,

Luzzu

Thanks  .  Felt like I was going around in circles earlier trying to find them.

I have looked at the original PRs for Norfolk from your link and already have found an answer to a Ditchingham query that had been foxing us. Thank you so much Yorkslass. Does anyone know a similar link to Suffolk PRs please?

As yet there appears to be nothing similar for Suffolk, but Familysearch is an on-going project, so see the following link (which is updated as additions are made) for a listing of what is available. One or two borderline Suffolk registers are listed in the Norfolk set.

Thanks Bill. It looks as if Essex might be available soon which would be good for me. Do you know if it is possible to move directly to a certain page of the register rather than move through each one by turn? I have tried to do this without success and it would be helpful to know a short cut.
Thanks, Jen

Hello Jen,

You can go to individual pages by typing the number in the "image" box, and pressing "Enter".

I've linked to Ditchingham PR's as you mentioned it earlier. https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-267-11685-120644-77?cc=1416598&wc=MMVP-38W:897104672

You'll see at the top it says Image 1 of 57, so you can type any number up to 57.

Is that what you meant?

Thanks Yorkslass. I had tried this earlier as it seemed the appropriate thing to do but without success. I have now tried again and yes it works! Maybe I was too impatient but there were problems with Familysearch over the weekend I found so maybe this was affected.
Thanks again, Jen

Hi Jen

I see you've already got your answer about going to individual pages on the Norfolk registers.

It seems that we are both researching in the same counties. My dad's side are nearly all Norfolk, over the last two centuries or more, and mum's are mainly on the North coast of Essex and the North coast of Suffolk, so I'm eagerly awaiting both those counties.

I see from one of your earlier posts that you have in interest in Needham Market. My mum's grandmother, Lizzie Wright (1860-1919), was born in St Osyth, Essex, but the Wright family had moved there from Needham Market in about 1820. I wonder if they have any connection with the Suckling family.

Good luck with your research

Bill
