Findmypast Friday

Thousands of records added for the English county of Norfolk this Findmypast Friday

This Findmypast Friday get 25% off selected Findmypast gift subscriptions until 9 December to treat a loved one to their past 

Norfolk Wills & Probate 

Brand new to Findmypast this week, this collection has over 257,000 records covering the years 1301-1858. The records cover 14 Deaneries, including Norwich and Lynn. You should normally spot an ancestor’s name year, residence and title, which will often include their occupation and birthplace.  

Norfolk Banns and Marriages 

Over 65,000 records have been added to this existing set, covering 1702-1923. You’ll normally discover details such as the marriage year, parish, and often the father’s first name. So, multiple generations could be unlocked with just one record.
