I have a rellie born c1825 in Arminghall (found thanks to here!) & I'm trying to find him with his parents in 1841. I've got 2 choices - Great Yarmouth or St Peter Mancroft........ Which is closest/Which should I start researching first?...................... Sarah :-)

St Peter Mancroft I am sure would be an area of Norwich. St Peter Mancroft Church is in the city Centre Arminghall is just outside Norwich Great Yarmouth 25 miles away!
