"Norfolk Annals, Vol. 2" by Charles Mackie is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume chronicles remarkable events that occurred in Norfolk from 1851 to 1900, offering readers a glimpse into the local history and society of the time as compiled from the files of the "Norfolk Chronicle." The book is a treasure trove of information that encompasses a wide range of topics, including notable deaths, public meetings, cultural events, and legal trials. The opening of "Norfolk Annals" sets the stage for a detailed exploration of 19th-century Norfolk, beginning with entries from January 1851. It reveals the death of prominent locals, such as Mary Tash, as well as significant societal events like a financial inquiry at the Norfolk Court. The text continues to detail incidents like the fall of a church steeple and the disruptions caused by a Wesleyan schism, portraying the everyday life of the community. The entries suggest a mixture of social challenges, celebrations of local talent, and the growing complexity of civic governance, laying a rich foundation for understanding the historical context of the era.
