Hi

I am doing research on the surname WYER in Norfolk from 1500s - present. Hope someone has the same interest as me.

Thank you.

Regards

I used to go to school with Colin Wyer and a Shiela Wyer wrote a local history book in the late 1970s.

Im sure I have a cutting somewhere.

Hi "Teddybear"

Thanks for your reply. Yes I have heard of Sheila Wyer - was she from Hindringham? Who was Colin Wyer's parents if you don't mind me asking - was he from the Binham area?

Hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you.

Kind regards

Hi there

Yes Shiela was from Hindringham and Colin was from out that way too.  He would be about 46 now.

Havent seen him in years though.
