Parson and People in a Suffolk Village
Richard Cobbold's Wortham 1824-1877

This is a wonderful book especially if you have ancestors from Wortham, (several of mine are mentioned). Even if you don't it gives a wonderful insight into village life.
It is published by Wortham Research Group and SFHS and puts together the Rev Cobbolds drawings of the village and it's people with his personal views on them.
The publishers have also added census returns and parish records as well as masses of historical data. A Wonderful Book.

just to add, I brought my book from Ipswich Tourist information centre. It is also available to order from Suffolk Family History Society

http://www.suffolkfhs.co.uk/newpubs.html

If you have relatives from or around Wortham I guarantee it is money well spent.
