Baptisms 1813 to 1880
The parish of Lyng sits in central Norfolk north-west
of Norwich by about 12 miles and just south of the A1067 which links Norwich
with the market town of Fakenham. Lyng is a riverside settlement, adjacent
to the River Wensum a pleasant clear stream with delightful weirs and
mills. The village centre is south of the river on slightly raised land
above the flood levels. It has a compact centre with most village amenities
still present although these days it does serve as a commuter village
to the city of Norwich. |

Two register books, both standard 800-entry registers, cover the period of the transcript and beyond. Both books are filmed on Microfilm MF 587 in the collection of the Norfolk Record Office and from which this transcript was prepared. The film is quite elderly but the registers must be in fine condition as most entries are clear and legible. As a result this was a straightforward transcript to prepare and it is to be hoped few errors will have crept into its construction. |
