  • Descendants of William Falke
    Descendants of William Falke Generation 1 1 1. WILLIAM FALKE was born about 1390 in Pr. Worlingham, Suffolk, England. He died between 20 Feb-05 Mar 1455 in Great Worlingham, Suffolk, England. He married AGNES. Notes for William Falke: William Falke of Worlingham, Suffolk, England is the first known ancestor of the line leading to the Fauxes who are found in large numbers in the area between Thetford and Norwich in Norfolk County from the mid 1500s. It is probably unproductive to speculate about earlier generations. The most that can be said is that it is probable that the family originated in the area and simply disappears into the mists of Medieval time. It is tempting to seek continuity back to Norman times. The first recorded instance of the name Falc or variant is in the "Ship Lists" of the Conquest in 1066. Here one finds, in the Wace contemporary list, "e cil qui est siree d'Alnou". This village is Al(u)nou - le - Faucon, on the Orne River south of Caen near Argentan. The first recorded Seigneur here is "Fulk I d'Aunou" (see Elizabeth Van Houts, 'Wace as Historian', in "The History of the Norman People", Glyn S. Burgess (Ed.), 2004, Boydell Press, Woodbridge, Suffolk, p.L). The Domesday Book of 1086 lists only one Falc, an under tennant at Bradford, Suffolk - although there are more individuals with the name Fulk (Falk and Fulk and their derivatives Falkes and Folkes are frequently used for the same individual). The British Archives site also shows 13th Century examples where the name is for example Robert Le Falke (1284), and others where Henry Faulkes is also known as Henry fliius Falcasiis, and Henry FitzFalk (1307).

  • Great Dunham | Norfolk PEACE of the COUNTRY
    Great Dunham | Norfolk PEACE OF THE COUNTRY Tucked away in the village of Great Dunham, this four-bedroom property built in the mid-90s offers the tranquillity of the Norfolk countryside from the comfort of a modern home. With a large back garden and a setting next to the village green there is all the space you could want, but with easy access to the A47 and the market town of Swaffham. • Executive, Detached family home sitting in an established plot with generous gardens • Rural living with modern comforts and found within 2.5 Miles of Litcham School • Versatile accommodation which includes Entrance Hall, Shower Room, Music Room, Open Plan Kitchen/Family Room • Four Bedrooms (master measuring 21’4 x 21’), Family Bathroom and En-Suite • Utility/Boot Room, Off Road Parking and Double Garage with Front & Rear Gardens • Total Accommodation extends to 2391 sq.ft • Energy Rating D Space and Convenience The moment you pass through the gated entrance and along the gravelled drive and see the front lawn leading up to this family home, there’s the impression of spaciousness. A newbuild on land previously attached to the adjacent property, when the present owners moved into it in December 1996 they installed a new kitchen and carried out landscaping work in the large back garden, and it has been their family home ever since. The feeling of space persists once inside the property. “There’s a very large master bedroom with views over the rear garden. This is a feature but could easily be developed into two separate bedrooms if desired.” And below it, with a recently installed log fire to enjoy, “The back room facing the garden was used mainly for dining in the past but is now primarily enjoyed as a music room.” Add to that the potential for a conservatory, and to perhaps utilise the large roof void, then there is even more room that could be made use of if so required.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.
