My family were in Great Ryburgh by late 17th century.

Back in 2011 I accessed (and downloaded) some pages of the Parish Register.  I believe I got access via the Norfolk Parish films that FamilySearch had uploaded for public access. Norfolk was (I think) the pilot for the project.

When I look at [https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Great_Ryburgh,_Norfolk_Genealogy] there is a spreadsheet showing that Indexes and images are available from FamilySearch from 1500 onwards.  Other providers are also listed.

I have now hit a spot in my research of the SIZELAND family of Great Ryburgh where I could benefit from reading the Parish Register page by page, but I cannot find Great Ryburgh in the England, Norfolk, Parish Registers (County Record Office), 1510-1997 online collection [https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/1416598]

I eventually found the film of the Parish Register for Great Ryburgh on Find My Past (I have a subscription) [https://search.findmypast.com.au/record/browse?id=GBPRS/NORFOLK/PD_621-1/00461]

As I believe Family Search mean for this film to be available free of charge (as part of the Norfolk Collection) maybe someone here could post how to access the film via Family Search.

Note for those who have a subscription to FindMyPast - Search for all records, leave both given and family name fields blank, make the location Great Ryburgh, Norfolk, move the search radius to EXACT, sort the results (there are about 2,600 hits) into date order, then choose the earliest date presented to you.  You will get viewable access to the whole film, including the lead-in information.  ---

Page 1 of the film says film emulsion number 16390127, Film Unit HRP 51867, Project number ENGL 0640A, Roll number 515. Great Ryburgh, Parish Registers, Item 6, 1547-1693

I'd be very interested in any information you get about Great Ryburgh ( Ryburgh Magna ) as my Nelson ancestors hailed from there, also Colkirk, Little Ryburgh, Whissonsett and Warham as well as Fakenham.
The Nelsons all had large families so there were many intermarriages with other villagers but I haven't tracked all the other surnames.

Thirty years ago I toured St.Andrew's church graveyard and found many more Nelsons than my grandparents could remember.
My grandfather, Alfred Percy Nelson (b.1901 ) married Elsie Gooch.
I'll post a picture of the local football team 'The Swifts ' when I can transfer it from my archived Flash Memory Sticks.
Norfolk Family History Society have many records which you can access, also worth becoming a member.
cheers, Ian

www.doun.org   ... I don't know if this is a currently live source but I have lists of surnames from Walsingham, Ryburgh Magna from there.
I got most of my Gt. Ryburgh info from Freereg 1.
I'll post other sources as I find them.
