Cranmer Hall Records
« on: Sunday 07 June 09 10:55 BST (UK) »
I am trying to track down staff/ household records for Cranmer Hall nr Burnham Market - I have tried the current owners/ agents (part of it is used as holiday accomodation) but they have nothing. Can anyone suggest if/ where the records may be. My gt gt grandfather was an underfootman there at the time of Sir Willoughby Jones, 3rd Baronet in the 1860s and I would love to have sight of any records.

Thanks.Trish

Hi Trish and welcome to rootschat.
Ask the Library closest to Cranmer Hall what they can tell you about this and how to track things down. I've always found the librarians very helpful.

A search in the NOAH database http://www.noah.norfolk.gov.uk/QSearch.aspx for Cranmer hall returns a few things - including a photo of the Hall which probably dates from the mid C19th.

Trish, Just as an encouragement-  several years ago I asked Fakenham Library about some locla question I had and they were wonderfully helpful.

Let us know how you get on.
