Findmypast Friday: Celebrating Suffolk Stories With New Parish Records

  I received this information from Findmypast today:


                                          ==================================\

There are over 500,000 new additions for you to explore this week.

We're diving into all-things Suffolk this week, with 575,174 new parish burial, marriage and burial records spanning over 100 years.

From Lowestoft to Lavenham, these additions can help you to trace the milestones of your ancestors' lives in vivid detail. Discover where they were baptised, who they married, and even what is inscribed on their grave.

We also added five new titles to our newspaper archive this week.

Suffolk, Graves and Memorial Inscriptions
