Packs for Suffolk Parishes are available for sale from the Suffolk Record Office.
Packs include:
*Early Ordnance Survey maps (will give you an overview of the parish and its surroundings).
* County directories from 1844, 1874 and 1900 (will list some of the occupants of the village. This can be especially useful if your ancestors ran commercial premises such as the local pub or blacksmith's forge).
* Pocket histories (will supply background information on the parish including the church, manor and school).
*Copy photographs.
