England Jurisdiction 1851 - Contiguous Parishes Online
Brilliant finding aid which not only allows you to view contiguous parishes it also shows county boundaries, civil reigstration districts, poor law union, hundreds, for any parish in England in 1851. Experience has taught me always look in surrounding parishes to where I believe my ancestors lived as they moved more than we give them credit for.

Was your ancestor a Publican?
This site is invaluable for finding out whether they ran a Pub.

Comment by Tony Williams on July 19, 2009 at 1:45am: Reply for Lindsey Dedden:

A James Linstead was baptised at St Margarets Church, Topcroft, Norfolk on 5 May 1793. His parents were James Linstead and Sarah Sutton. This info came from FreeREG (Great resource for Norfolk!) www.freereg.org.uk

Comment by Lindsey Dedden on July 18, 2009 at 2:08pm: I am trying to find the parents of James Linstead, Maltster who was born in Topcroft around 1796, according to various census entries. I cannot find any other record of him. Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.

Comment by Carl Scase on July 18, 2009 at 12:57pm: Hi Lesley,
Long time no talk.
How is your genealogy research going?
I have managed to trace most of the Scase's from Norfolk down to current times. Still no luck with tying together the various Scase's I have found in and about Swaffham back in the 1700's.
