Morningthorpe St John

Baptisms 1813 to 1880

The parish of Morningthorpe is in south Norfolk just to the east of the main A140 road from Norwich to Ipswich and north-east of the market town of Diss. The parish is sparsely populated in an area of flat arable land just west of Fritton Common. Little more than a scatter of farms and cottages, what centre to the village that exists is around the manor and church on a narrow north-south lane.

St John's church has some old features, the tower has a 12th century base although the top is 15th century. Other features of the church indicate a mixture of 12th century and early 16th century make-over. The church is in a splendid setting and I think is one of Norfolk's most picturesque churches. The ominous storm clouds in the landscape portrait gave way to a stinging shower before the sun came out again.
The deposit of these registers is extremely recent with the baptismal register being filmed in the most recent batch of records to be available. The register is filmed on microfilm MF/RO693 in the collection of the Norfolk Record Office. As a recent filming the images are of the highest quality now available, sadly much of the register had suffered from fading so it takes a modern film to make some parts readable.

Despite this caveat and the usual issues with handwriting this was a fairly straightforward transcript to prepare and it is to be hoped few errors will have crept into its compilation.
