  • 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.

  • A Brief History of Garveston, Thuxton & Reymerston
    A brief history of Garveston, Thuxton & Reymerston Late Neolithic & Bronze Age 2800 BC-700 BC In the Bronze age people in this area cleared forests for fuel & farming, mined flint, kept animals, grew crops (spelt wheat, barley, flax, horse-beans, linseed) made pottery & metalwork & built henges (Arminghall is the nearest known). There is some evidence of early settlements in Garveston, Thuxton & Reymerston, where flints, axe-heads, axe- hammers, polstave, ring-ditches & barrows have been found. Nearby there is evidence of other early settlements in Grimes Graves & but also unexcavated sites at Great Melton, Ringland & Carleton Forehoe. Iron Age 700 BC - 50 AD Iron Age pottery has been found in Garveston, Thuxton & Reymerston, providing more evidence of early settlement in our villages. Wymondham & Caistor St Edmund had large settlements, known as Oppida. At this time local people still made their own pottery but there has also been finds of pottery imported from Europe. The first coins began to be used in the area from about 100BC. The iron-age tribe in Norfolk & North Suffolk was the Iceni which had different coinage & decorations to the other main tribes in East Anglia. About this time enclosed forts appear on the Norfolk landscape. Throughout Norfolk there has been many finds of iron age jewellery, weapons & coins, such as the the Snettisham Hoard, now in the British museum, but also findings at Whinburgh in 2011 and Thuxton in the 1960s. Roman Period 43 BC - 410 AD After the first Roman invasion of Britain under Julius Caesar, Roman influence increased throughout the land, with Britons trading with Romans in slaves, wine & grain.
