Norfolk Families

Flegg Island

Home Page


If you are unfamiliar with the Flegg area The Flegg Villages provides you with a map and some basic information.


The baptism, marriage and burial records attached to this Home Page are ones I have gathered together whilst searching through church records in the County Record Office in Norwich. I am aware that there are some gaps in them but would like to think that this is just a start. There are of course local family names that do not feature here - yet! Updated or new pages are marked with an asterisk. Additional records are from the parish of Fleggburgh (Burgh St. Margaret).Currently, the site contains records of the following surnames:-

Most of the pages on the website show the variations in spelling of surnames for the respective pages. Many of the pages also contain surnames with a similar sound or which may have the same root.  

A  list of Flegg surnames can be seen on Surnames List .

Each surname is linked to its own page. Each page is divided into parishes showing church records of baptisms, marriages and burials. Dates are given year first followed by month then day. For example, 1807.0224 is the same as 24th February, 1807.

Flegg Island Website news updated September 2020

This website was the creation of the late John Brown. The site is no longer being added to but is left on the internet to help anyone researching their family tree in the Flegg area and as a memorial to John. It is unlikely that the family information will go out of date. If you need to contact someone about this website, please feel free to send questions to the Ludham Community Archive Group. This active local history group is not actually located on Flegg Island but is not far away and is hosting and maintaining this website.

The site was further updated in June 2013 when we located the files which had gone missing. The site should now be up to date with John's latest research prior to his death.

There are some links below to sites that John recommended. The links are regularly tested and all still work although we are aware that some of the sites listed are no longer being updated. Please let us know if there are any problems with the links.

One other site which also has strong links to the Flegg area is:- Julie's Norfolk Page. There are several more surnames here not mentioned on this one. It is well worth a visit.

Dick King has produced a large site with references to over six hundred descendants of Abel King. You can find his site at Descendants of Abel King.

A site for Runham is being developed by Furgus Anderson. This can be found at
Runham Village, Great Yarmouth, UK.

Bernie Guymer has produced a site specifically for that surname. The image he has on his site suggests that we are distant relatives!! This can be found at The Guymer Website.

Eleven pages of photographs of the Flegg area can be found at Flegg Views

This page was last updated by John Brown in 2007

The page was restored by Nigel Pope of the Ludham Archive Group. November 2012

 The whole site was further updated in June 2013
