Norfolk Area Codes - Members Interests
This map (reproduced from the Norfolk Family History Society membership pack) should be used by members and prospective members tracing their family tree for detailing Members Interests where their research relates to ancestors located in Norfolk.
The two letter Area Codes should be entered on the Members Interest form by New Members and those Members with Ancestors in Norfolk wishing to revise their Members Interests for the county. Members (and prospective members) may also wish to refer to the Searchable list of Parishes and NFHS Area Codes when listing the main geographic concentration of their interest.
