Hi I am writing to provide an update on the 1861 census project. Two further pieces have been uploaded to the on line database and are now searchable for free on the main Freecen site at http://www.freecen.org.uk These are pieces: RG09/1226 Blofield covering the parishes of Blofield, Bradeston, Brundall, Buckenham, Burlingham St Andrew, Burlingham St Edmund, Great Plumstead, Hassingham, Hemblington, Lingwood, Little Plumstead, Postwick, Strumpshaw, Thorpe Next Norwich, Thorpe St Andrew, Witton, Woodbastwick Also from the 1861 *_Cambridgeshire_* census returns RG09/1051 Terrington St Clement covering the parishes of Terrington St Clem, Wingland, Clenchwarton, Tilney All Saints, Tilney Cum Islington, Tilney St Lawrenc , Terrington St John. This means that there are now 401,299 (96.2%) 1861 Norfolk census records available to search free on line. Many thanks to John Seakins, Sally Cutler, Steve Willgress, without their help this information would not be available. If you would like to help with making more information available please contact me on bandys@worldonline.co.uk <mailto:bandys@worldonline.co.uk>. Please remember that spelling was not standard in 1861 so you may need to be a little imaginative with some of your searches. We have to provide a transcript of what the enumerator wrote not what we think he meant. Please see the main Freecen site or my website (see my signature for a link) for details of which pieces are on line. Hope this helps you in your research.
