Hi Joy Most of Somerset parish records are held at the Somerset Record Office in Taunton, Somerset, England. You should be able to find out from them at _archives@somerset.gov.uk_ (mailto:archives@somerset.gov.uk) or website at _www.somerset.gov.uk/archives_ (http://www.somerset.gov.uk/archives) whether the parish records survive and for what years. They will do research for you - it's either £11 per half hour or £11 one hour - I can't remember which or you could get a local researcher to assist. Hope this helps.
