Thegenealogist Adds to Its Ever Growing Parish Records Collection Press Release: TheGenealogist adds to its ever growing Parish Records collection TheGenealogist has added a further 322,894 individuals to its continually increasing collection of Parish Records with the release of a set from the English county of Suffolk. These East Anglian church registers have been fully transcribed and linked to images of the actual pages from the books that were once kept by the Anglican Parish Churches.

In some cases these important records will allow family historians to find their ancestors as far back as the 16th century. Parishes in this release include: Ashby, Belton, Blundeston with Flixton, Bradwell, Burgh Castle, Carlton Colville, Corton, Fritton, Gisleham, Gorleston with Southtown, Gunton, Herringfleet, Hopton, Kessingland, Kirkley St Peter & St John, Kirkley St Matthew, Knettishall, Lound, Lowestoft Christchurch, Lowestoft St Andrew, Lowestoft St John, Lowestoft St Margaret, Mutford, Oulton Broad, Oulton St Michael (Oldton), Pakefield, Rushmere, and Somerleyton.

  • Examine the Value of Place-Names As Evidence for the History, Landscape And, Especially, Language(S) of Your Chosen Area
    Examine the value of place-names as evidence for the history, landscape and, especially, language(s) of your chosen area Ruut Korpinen Introduction The material studied here (see Appendix I) comprises 41 parish-names from the north-east corner of the historic county of Suffolk. The area is roughly bordered by the River Waveney in the north and west, the River Blyth in the south and the North Sea in the east (see Appendix II). The following discussion examines what the place-names reveal about the area and its British, Roman, Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian and Norman past. The first section focuses on people and languages, and the second takes a look at the landscape and culture. People and languages The Britons and the Romans The Britons who inhabited the country before the Anglo-Saxons arrived have left no certain signs of themselves in the present-day place-names of Suffolk (Briggs and Kilpatrick 2016: xi). Nevertheless, the corpus contains two names which possibly stem from their language. Beccles may be wholly Brittonic in origin, comprising *bacc ‘small’ + *liss ‘court’ (Coates and Breeze 2000: 335). If so, the name suggests an ancient British settlement and has perhaps survived as a toponym for an important centre of power. By the time of Domesday Book, at least, Beccles had developed into the major town of north- east Suffolk (Wade and Dymond 1999). Another potential Brittonic name is Ellough, the etymology of which is unclear. Many scholars have interpreted it as a derivative of Old English (OE) ealh or Old Norse (ON) elgr ‘heathen temple’, but these interpretations are questionable.
