Reggie's partly correct - you don't need to scroll down the page if you're going to confine your search to stuff that's been transcribed and indexed. However, there's a large amount of images that're unindexed or only partly indexed. Although there's no collection specifically for Lincs, there are several unindexed collections for Norfolk, e.g..

My preference is to go to:
https://familysearch.org/search/collection/list#page=1®ion=UNITED_KINGDOM_IRELAND
and search the collection I'm targeting.
