	• The database has currently well over 65,000 individual entries for named people in Diss and the surrounding villages and is steadily growing. Just as a taster, this page will show a list of the 50 most common surnames found.
	• Have you ever wondered what happened locally on the same day as your birthday (probably not the same year), or maybe you want to find out what happened on Christmas Day? A new calendar feature “ On This Day” may satisfy your curiosity, listing all those events from the database which did!
	• The DFHG has started a project based around the villages of North and South Lopham. It is in its infancy but to see what is already available please go to the project webpage. If anyone would like to take part in this then please contact Betty Morley.

Fersfield Men Who Marched Away To The Great War - Commemorating the end of World War 1, 1914 - 1918. This is dedicated to those young men who left the village of Fersfield and enlisted to fight for King and Country.
