Baptisms 1813 to 1880
The parish of Bodham lies in northern Norfolk quite close
to its northern coast and about 3 miles east of the small market town
of Holt. Bodham has its main group of properties along and just south
of the busy A148 road which connects Holt with the seaside resort of Cromer.
Bodham sits on quite high ground, a glacial remnant, for this part of
Norfolk and much of the land was heathland prior to the early 19th century.
Agriculture would have been the mainstay of the economy and most of the
land is under arable fields today. A smaller settlement of Lower Bodham
and, indeed, the church stands almost a mile south of the present village
centre. |

A single standard 00-entry register book covers the period of this transcript and runs on to finish in the early 20th century. This register is split across two films - MFRO342 finishing on MFRO343 - and they were used to prepare this transcript. Apart from a little period when entries are clearly out-of-sequence and probably retrospectively completed there were few issues in preparing this transcript. Hopefully few errors will have resulted. |
