If it helps at all, I've indexed several registers in the area. These now appear on the Norfolk Transcription Archive. However, I keep the excel spreadsheets on which I originally worked. These sometmes come in useful for analysing and sorting records offline. One of the sets of spreadsheets is for Honing. If it would help you at any time, I'd be happy to forward these on by e-mail.

I also have similar spreadsheets (and the original registers on fiches) for Worstead, Dilham, East Ruston and have recently begun working on the ATs for North Walsham. If any of this or other stuff I keep would help, drop me a line.

If of no interest, just ignore this message

The excel spreadsheets would be wonderful for me to work from for Honing, East Ruston and Worstead.
