Have found loads of my half sisters family on there already.

Will save my sister from travelling into Norwich from Docking now to view the records.

It's great to know you can take your time, I'm sure I missed a lot rushing through microfilm at Norfolk Records Office, knowing they were shutting at lunchtime!!!

Pleased to hear everyone is having success. Just like being in the archives but you can shout as loud as you want when you find something without being told to shhhh!! And having never managed to get down to NRO it's great.

I've found out quite abit lastnight, tho there's a few parishes that i'm interested in that don't seem to be listed.

Happy hunting

I've spent loads of time looking at Rockland St Peter & think I may have found my family. I have already listed all instances of my names from looking at fiche, so am able to add more now. I am sure I will be posting questions soon.

Woohoo, thanks for that Jay! Can't wait for the kids to go back to school and leave me in peace to browse...

Unfortunately, Brancaster doesn't seem to be on there - I hope it's going to be added at some later date. And a lot of the pages I've tried to view have said not available. Probably teething troubles.

Same here Kite, there's a few i'm after that aren't on. I've only had the 'page not available' once, clicked back on the page, that started to load, then clicked forward & it loaded no problem.

I have only been able to view one image tonight, which is most annoying!
