A good resource for Essex and Suffolk particularly Beccles is

The Foxearth and District Local History Society http://www.foxearth.org.uk/

There is a very extensive history of Beccles streets and lots of Newspaper transcriptions for the district.

I recently transcribed a list of Beccles Men who served in WWI which people might find interesting.

I hope you find it useful. I did.

Hi,

Just found this whilst 'googling'.

www.foxearth.org.uk


Found a great ref. to my g/g/grandfather John Leggett of London Rd, Beccles and his selling of fruit trees :D

Hope it is of help to someone else.

Happy  New Year from Western Australia :D

Have been using Foxearth for a couple of years now....very informative and mentions some of my ancestors too.   The early newspapers are well worth a read...you need a cup of tea as well. ;D

Happy Hunting
