Relying on online records

[Phoenix]

There are lots of online records for Norfolk now.
I have families who flit round North Norfolk and end oscillating between Blakeney and Cley.
Looking for the burial of an elderly woman in Blakeney, I did not think that this would be much of a challenge.

It wasn't on Ancestry.
It wasn't on FreeReg

I browsed the baptisms/burials 1807-1812 and could not find them on Ancestry.
I browsed the same records on Family Search.

It appears that who ever filmed the register reached the middle, saw empty pages, and stopped. They did not realise that the burials were at the back.

Sadly, nobody using an index will realise that entries are missing. It's only a handful of years, but it's a period when you get ages, marital status and even parents' names.

I've written to the record office, asking whether there are any transcripts anywhere.

This is an obvious problem, but it is a huge challenge to spot the gaps.
