Hello Jo and Neil

As I said previously, I have viewed the parish records, I just want someone to take a look at the ATs and BTs for Snetterton prior to 1808. Need to find my 3 x gt grandfather's baptism, any any family connected to him previous to that.

I am a bit reluctant to part with £10 (even though it is not much for the service) as it may not come to anything. I will have a think about it though!

I am interested in what records you have for Norfolk though Jo, as you may be able to help me with other lines in Norfolk.

Thanks
Dee

Hi Dee

Who is it you are looking for as I have some parishes of Norfolk on CD and will look for you?

I've used the lady on ebay that Neil is talking about and found her very good. She's found a lot of information for me.

Jo xx

Would anyone have some spare time to look up a surname in the AT & BTs at Norfolk Records offices.

I live too far from the offices to do further research and I have hit a brick wall about 18 months ago and would like to move further forward.

I have viewed the original parish records showing that the ancestors I am interested in, were living there in 1808 (Where I found their first child baptised).

I have references that my 3x & 4x gt grandfathers were both born there (IGI and family history book) but neither show up on the fiches. I have now found a reference (on an early census) to another son of my 3 x gt grandfather (he has the same name as his grandfather) having been born there also in 1806.

This makes sense as my 3xgt grandfather was married in Suffolk in 1804 and I thought that 4 years before their first child had been born was quite a long time period for he and his wife to have their first child - there may even have been more children whom I don't know about.

I have checked with the NRO that there are AT & BTs for prior 1808 and they do hold them but I cannot get there to look at them.

If anyone would kindly spare some time to take a look at them for me, I would be most grateful.

Regards
Dee
