Sorry should have checked - Axbridge Archaeological and Local History Society probably seem your best bet - they actually say their archives are for Axbridge and surrounding area including Compton Bishop. Their contact is Elizabeth Friend email: friend.elizabeth @gmail.com. I hate to see research and archives lost !

I have found in the past the  Society of Genealogists very good at taking in research - even village local research.

Have you tried a local history society  - Rooksbridge/ East Brent ?

Also there are several examples of Parish Councils in North Somerset keeping such archives-  the history can sometimes help village arguments !

I might have some questions for you - way back I have family in the Compton area.

Sadly both the Heritage Centre and local library said they were not accepting local research on the grounds of lack of space.

Thank you so much for that information.  Although I had looked under Gregory, I found nothing that was conclusive at the time as I did not know he married an Ellen. There are so many William Gregorys  and it was a matter of which one..  I did not expect to find him in Totterdown and had kept my original research in the Yatton, N. Somerset area.   I attended Sunday School very close to Wlliam Street but don't remember Pylle Hill although I knew the area well as a youngster.  Looking at Google, I see Pylle Hill Cres. is at the bottom of William Street.  It was a long time ago.  Thanks again, that has opened up a bit more on this family for me.
