I have a copy of Percy Millican's 'A History of Horstead and Stanninghall, Norfolk' (publ. 1937). Long out of print, it can be expensive to get hold of copies.
Many names are mentioned (far too many to list here) and the book is well indexed. It also has a very useful map of the village.
If you have family who came from, or lived in the village - or the surrounding villages - I am happy to check the book for you. Just post a reply to this message.

Hi Geoffers,
I would very much appreciate any references to EMPSON or KELF that you might find in the book please.

No trace in the book of either EM(P)SON or (C/K)ELF. The only references to the names that I have in Horstead are in the Archdeacon's Transcripts:
1729
"Peter EMPSON of (Le.l.ff??) was buried Nov: 2d"
(The place name is fuzzy on the AT - it may read Lerloff??? I can find no such place on the map of Horstead or in Faden's or Bryant's maps - the only thing I can suggest is that the curate has tried to interpret 'Lostoff' from the PR - i.e. Lowestoft??)
1716
I have an entry which I originally read as KELT but now am not so sure, the last letter is similar to both 'T' and 'F' in other entries on the same page, I include it just in case and will amend the index to reflect both possibilities:
William KEL(T?F?) was bur 18 Jan (1716/17)
Similarly in 1718/19 AT
Mary base child of Anne KAL(T/F?): bapt: 22 Marc:

Hi Geoffers,
Thank you very much for checking the book, and also for the info from the ATs. It might be a while before I'm able to fit those people into the grand scheme - I'm still trying to sort out all the John and Mary's in the 1850s.
And as for Lostoff - I love it! Interestingly, there are several entries for Peter Em(p)son in Lowestoft of a time that would fit on the IGI.

The earliest reference that I have to the name in the parish registers, is the marriage of Charles BUNTEN and Hannah FREEMAN in 1780 and the baptism of their son four months later. Have you details from the registers and census returns?

Thanks for checking out the book.
I have information from the 1851-1881 Census, haven't as yet gone through the 1841. In 1851 Joseph Bunting was transcribed as BUNTON and the address was given as Cottage, St Faiths
Census Place: Horstead & Stanninghall St Faiths, Norfolk
PRO Reference: HO/107/1811 Folio: 247 Page:10
Have the 1861 census discs & located the family in Norwich Road,
REF: RG9/1209 Folio 84 Page 10 Schedule 44
Living in the North East prevents me from getting to the Norfolk Record Office so hopefully will be able to plan a trip to the local LDS centre to check out the Baptism Records.
Once again, thanks for your assistance.
Regards
Sue

This includes an index to the 1861, 1871 + 1901 census returns, an index to the registers and ATs and some photos.
