I'm not visiting myself but for anyone that is, it would be helpful if you said what you are looking for. Is it baptisms of these people?

Parish Records won't be held at the registry office, they will be at the records office.

The registrars will hold the birth register (the original document the birth certificate is based on).


If you wanted a search of the parish records instead then bear in mind that Norwich has over 40 different parish listings (and therefore over 40 sets of records). Unless you have an idea of which parish(es) then it is a needle in a haystack) and the PR's won't give as much detail as the birth certificates.
