We are at present two short on the committee

We welcome your enquiries - and the more you can tell us about the person of interest to you, the more likely it is that we can help you.

It always helps to have as many FACTS about the person as possible.  Every fact is a clue that might help us to avoid some of the classic pitfalls.  For example, we had an enquiry about someone's uncle who was known throughout life, and throughout the family tradition, as 'Timothy'.  We never found Timothy, but by piecing together other clues that emerged from the name of his wife and their children, we did eventually find David Timothy - and the jigsaw pieces came together.

• Before you enquire, make a note of as many facts as possible.  Try filling in the details using our blank Family Tree Template, which you can download and print. Then tell us as much as you know, as well as what else you would like to know, and e-mail your enquiry to us at: http://info@attleboroughheritage.org.uk
• We transcribed, and hold the records of, burials in the Town Cemetery, gravestone inscriptions in St Mary's churchyard and also burials in the Wesleyan graveyard in Thieves Lane. Again, please give us as much information as possible about your ancestor when making an enquiry about their burial: information from their death certificate is particularly helpful, so please tell us if you have a copy.

With the changes to the Data Protection regulations to ensure your personal information is not abused by anyone holding your contact data, the Heritage Group has changed its recording of membership and contact information.

All members are now asked to give consent for their personal details to be used by the Heritage Group and to indicate how they wish to be contacted in future.  All the information is securely maintained and encrypted. We do not share this information  with any other parties without your specific instruction.

If you have not responded to our recent request for consent and preferences and do not instruct us before the end of May 2018, we will, unfortunately, not be able to contact you about your membership, events or other news concerning the Heritage Group.

If you are in any doubt about your current consents or data held by Attleborough Heriage Group, please e mail info@attleboroughheritage.org.uk
