Zion Chapel at South Carey
« on: Monday 13 January 14 18:49 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
An ancestor of mine was married at Zion Chapel, South Carey in 1879.
I'm assuming that the chapel was at Golden Lion Yard in Castle Carey but am unable to locate any records.
Does anybody know whether the chapel records are available anywhere?

I found a record of Congregational Baptisms from 1837 to 1971 (which I've put on FreeREG) but haven't been able to locate any other non Church of England records for the area.

Any help would be appreciated.
Tim

This gives some information; the area is South CARY.

Have you searched the county archives?

Thanks
Seen the Victoria County History document and spent many a happy hour scouring the Somerset archives.
I came across the record of Methodist baptisms in the Castle Cary museum. Someone had recently come across it when a relative died. I'm hoping that other non-conformist records are still waiting to be discovered and haven't been destroyed.
