Walter Rye – Monumental Inscriptions of the Hundred of Happing – indexed – Abbrev.HP. Monumental Inscriptions of the Hundred of Tunstead – indexed –Abbrev.T. Erpingham Hundred Part 1. Monumental Inscriptions at end of Volume – Abbrev.E.
Walton Dew – Monumental Inscriptions of the Hundred of Holt – not indexed – Abbrev.HT

Members of the Norfolk Family History Society may ask the Monumental Inscriptions coordinator to do a search of monumental inscriptions records held by the Society (see Members Research Service). Non-members may find offers for assistance in looking-up a monumental inscription on the Genuki / Norfolk Look-ups page or may refer to the National Archive of Memorial Inscriptions Project.
