Baptisms 1813 to 1880
Stokesby parish lies in eastern Norfolk, a riverside parish
on the River Bure to the east of Acle and north of the A47 Norwich to
Great Yarmouth road. The parish is made up of grazing marshes, reedbeds
and a little agricultural land forming the southern edge of the former
island of Flegg. In the days of this transcript this was an isolated area
with communication largely by boats along the rivers. The mediaeval parish
of Herringby was long ago assimilated into Stokesby - there being no separate
records. |

These records were transcribed from Microfiche
4 & 5 in the collection of the Norfolk Record Office. This filming is
quite elderly and the quality of image is poor by contemporary standards.
In places the image was so faint that reference had to be made to the Bishop's
Transcript to obtain a legible image. Despite this drawback and perhaps a tribute to the preservation of the originals the majority of the transcript was straight-forward to read. It is to be hoped that few errors will have crept into the compilation of this transcript. |
