Welcome to

The Cosford Database
Compiled by Ray Long  ©2002 - 2007

The web site was last updated:- 30 January 2008

There are now links to all 28 villages that make up the Cosford Registration District of Suffolk although there is not much information on some of the web sites.

Acton, Lawshall, Long Melford, Stoke by Nayland, Great Waldingfield and Little Waldingfield in the Sudbury Registration District are also included and Buxhall, Stowmarket and Rattlesden in the Stow Registration District and Ringshall in the Bosmere Registration District

Many of the families have been traced back well into the 1700s and there are family trees from many different contributors.
