Cherie and Jay,

According to the LDS Family History Library Catalog, the census
returns for all Belchamp places exist, 1841 to 1891 inclusive, and
would certainly be available from any Mormon Family History Library
if you don't live close to a UK source. Except for the 1881 and the
1901, I don't know of any available on-line.

Parish records also exist for all three Belchamps and have been
deposited with ERO. These all date from the 16th century up to the
latter part of the 19th or the 20th. Also available from any FHC,
world-wide.
