Local history
Suffolk is fortunate in that there is a Local History Recorders
Scheme which has been running for a number of years. The main
purpose is to establish a network of people scross the country
(ideally one in each parish) to record the present and to be on the
look out for items of historical interest that may be overlooked
and lost to future historians. These items do not just include the
ususal minute books and manorial records, but the full range of
written and printed material such as letters, maps, accounts,
diaries, title deeds, pamphlets, drawings, parish magazines
etc.
Eventually, all material will end up at the County Record Office
and will then be available to all present and future
historians.
If you should have any material (incl records, photographs etc)
which you no longer wish to retain, please do pass them on to your
local history recorder. Bill Blackaby (Wyverstone) 01359
242369 or Rose Graham (Bacton) 01449 780201.
If you should have material relating to other Suffolk parishes, the
details of the Local History Recorder can be obtained by contacting
