Some time ago I undertook some research in Somerset in connection
with a course which I teach in Folklore and The Oral Tradition. I was
greatly assisted in this by suggestions from members of this group about
stories and sites that would be worth investigation. I should be glad if
people will again help with local knowledge about the County of Norfolk,
which I hope to visit for the first time this summer..
On a personal level, I haver a particular interest in Norfolk because my
mother had family connections there. She was a Sendall and a
descendant, through his younger daughter, of Isaac Jermy, the Recorder
of Norwich, who lived at Stanfield Hall, near Wymondham. Through him,
we are descended from the Prestons of Beeston St. Lawrence. I should
be glad of any information regarding parish churches with family
connections and any published historyor family history that exists.
Indeed, I should be grateful for any leads.
I look forward to replies with interest!
